Synopses & Reviews
A dictionary that serves as a handy reference tool for a wide audience! Environmental microbiology encompasses the study of viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites in diverse environments. This requires knowledge of the basic science of microbiology, including the molecular nature, structure, and function of the organisms, and the applied science of microbiology, including development and use of appropriate sampling, processing, and assay methods. Statistical analysis, interpretation of data, and verbal or written reporting are also critical elements. This dictionary defines terms used in environmental microbiology and includes terms associated with molecular biology, historical figures in the field, and microorganisms of significance.
These entries not only provide information that will assist in the study of environmental microbiology, but will also serve as a resource for nonscientists.
