The formation of microcolonies on surfaces is an important bacterial survival strategy. These biofilms occur on both inert and living systems, making them important to a wide range of scientific disciplines. This book first provides an analysis of the chemical, ecological and physical processes involved with the development of biofilms and their interactions with surfaces. The next section deals with biofilms on non-living surfaces. Biofilms have important engineering implications, such as in mining industries, the corrosion of pipelines and pure and waste water industries. Biofilms have medical significance when associated with the mouth, urinary tract and urinogenital tract. In addition, they form in plant root systems and in animals, such as the ruminant digestive tract, and so are agriculturally important. The final section examines these interactions with living surfaces.

The USP-NF" is a single-volume combination of two official compendia, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and the National Formulary (NF). Monographs for drug substances and preparations are featured in the USP. Monographs for dietary supplements and ingredients appear in a separate section of the USP. Excipient monographs are included in the NF.The U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act designates the USP-NF as the official compendia for drugs marketed in the United States. A drug product in the U.S. market must conform to the standards in USP-NF to avoid possible charges of adulteration and misbranding. The USP-NF is also widely used by manufacturers wishing to market therapeutic products worldwide. Meeting USP-NF standards is accepted globally as assurance of high quality.This title provides six-Month implementation guideline.

The reading of ECGs should be relatively straightforward since cardiac conditions are characterized by regular electrical patterns Nonetheless, the ECG causes problems to student and physician alike. Romeo Vecht has assembled into one volume 350 ECGs, explaining each one in detail, together with tables depicting the latest information on drug management. This clear approach should assist the physician to familiarize himself with ECG patterns, enabling him to achieve a more precise diagnosis. The accompanying CD contains all the ECGs from the book and should prove invaluable for quick reference.

There are few technical books that remain in a leadership position for 65 years. The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics is one. Physicians, teachers, and medical students have voted for Goodman & Gilman with their feet and with their pocketbooks for over six decades. The question is not whether this is an important and useful text, but why? A sentence by the original authors in their 1940 preface still describes the 11th edition: “This book has also been written for the practicing physician, to whom it offers an opportunity to keep abreast of recent advances in therapeutics and to acquire the basic principles necessary for the rational use of drugs in his/her daily practice.” The book’s 65 chapters are grouped into 15 sections: General Principles, Drugs Acting at Synaptic and Neuroeffector Junctional Sites, Drugs Acting on the Central Nervous System, Drug Therapy of Inflammation, Drugs Affecting Renal and Cardiovascular Function…Chemotherapy of Microbial Diseases, Chemotherapy of Neoplastic

Anatomically correct An unsurpassed treatise of the human body We owe a great debt to Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery (1797?1849) for his Atlas of Anatomy, which was not only a massive event in medical history, but also remains one of the most comprehensive and beautifully illustrated anatomical treatises ever published . Bourgery began work on his magnificent atlas in 1830 in cooperation with illustrator Nicolas Henri Jacob (1782?1871), a student of the French painter Jacques Louis David . The first volumes were published the following year, but completion of the treatise required nearly two decades of dedication; Bourgery lived just long enough to finish his labor of love, but the last of the treatise?s eight volumes was not published in its entirety until five years after his death. The eight volumes of Bourgery?s treatise cover de*ive anatomy, surgical anatomy and techniques (exploring in detail nearly all the major operations that were performed during the first half of the 19th century), gen
