In the battle between humans and microbes, knowledge may be not only the best weapon but also the best defense. Pulling contributions from 34 experts into a unified presentation, Disinfection and Decontamination: Principles, Applications, and Related Issues provides coverage that is both sophisticated and practical. The book reviews the fundamentals, explores the interdisciplinary nature of the science, and includes discussions of regulatory and legal issues. While the chapters present in depth coverage of infections in hospitals, they also widen their scope to include laboratories outside the healthcare environment.Based on practical experience, the volume examines recent advances in the research, development, and applications for disinfection and decontamination in many different settings. The chapters address, and supply insight into, the issues found with infectious disease, devices and new materials for implantation, principles, mechanisms, testing methods and strategies, and various applications. They also cover current research and best practice for ways to reduce infection caused by devices. The book’s emphasis on new technologies highlights the need for safer biocides and microbiological concerns in the manufacturing environment. The broad focus combined with the global, interdisciplinary panel of authors gives you a snapshot of disease transmission, perspectives on infectious challenges and solutions in a global perspective, and an understanding of global governance. The book offers in depth information on specific topics and an understanding of the fundamentals, giving you a starting point and precise information for resolving problems.

As our consciousness of microbes increases, it appears that our desire to control our interactions with germs also increases in proportion. This is clearly demonstrated by examining the incredible growth in the number and sales volume of consumer products with antimicrobial claims. In the medical field as well, there is much interest in the use of antimicrobial/anti-infective materials for medical devices and general healthcare applications.Antimicrobial/Anti-Infective Materials: Principles, Applications and Devices represents the best current research and practice on ways to reduce infection caused by devices inserted into the human body. This volume presents important recent developments in the research, development, and applications of anti-infective materials for use in medical devices. It includes 15 in-depth reports by more than 40 leading specialists in biomaterials and medical devices that cover a wide range of important advances in various materials and applications. These include improved coatings and surface modifications techniques, improved materials designed for inherent infection resistance, and applications in the areas of cardiac, orthopedic, ENT, and vascular devices.This book serves the information needs of all those involved in the research, development, design, and selection of biomaterials and medical devices. It will benefit anyone who designs, uses, and monitors anti-infective materials, as well as those who develop and apply products made from these materials.
