Beskrivning

Pathogenic Viruses and Armamentarium Design covers the latest developments in viral target elucidation and viral control using wet and dry lab strategies. The control and combat strategies and their implementation compiled in this book are invaluable in aiding the understanding of viral disease progression and for designing new strategies against existing and evolving viruses.

This important resource is a comprehensive compilation of antiviral approaches designed and devised using computational and other laboratory techniques. This book is a useful reference for scientists, researchers, industry professionals, advanced students, and postgraduates in virology, biotechnology, infection biology, biochemistry, and pharmaceutical sciences who engaged in the study of pathogenic virus and the development of prophylactics and therapeutics against viral infection.

Provides an overview of human pathogenic viruses, viral entry and disease progression, and strategic approaches to
combating existing and evolving viruses
Explores available techniques for clinical diagnostics, virology, and viral immune diagnostics
Comprehensively discusses antiviral drugs, their targets, mechanism of action, design, and development challenges
