Reseña del editor:

Cell Wall Deficient Forms: Stealth Pathogens, 2nd Edition, is a comprehensive text-reference that covers major aspects of cell wall deficient microbes (L forms). The book discusses protoplasts as efficient genetic tools, L forms essential to the food chain for their ability to reclaim nitrogen in the air, an L form pathogenic to a flowering plant, and new information on male sterility caused by streptococcal L forms in drosophila.

Reseña del editor:

A comprehensive text-reference which covers major aspects of cell wall deficient microbes (L forms). The book discusses protoplasts as efficient genetic tools, L forms essential to the food chain for their ability to reclaim nitrogen in the air, an L form pathogenic to a flowering plant, and new information on male sterility caused by streptococcal L forms in drosphila. This new edition covers the L forms implicated in sarcoidosis, chronic stages of rheumatoid arthritis, uveitis, Crohn's disease, and Whipple's disease. AIDs-related data covered includes micrographs of an agent found in six Kaposi cases that resembles clinical L forms. The book presents methods for rapid diagnosing of common serious infections such as tuberculosis; describes little-known characteristics of mycobacterium leprae, including optimum temperature and pH. The book is aimed at haematologists, cellular biologists, microbiologists and clinical laboratory personnel.
