Microbial Biofilms: Challenges and Advances in Metabolomic Study is a volume in the Advances in Biotechnology and Bioengineering Series. The volume covers the metabolomic characteristics of bacterial biofilms and examines the techniques used in the analysis of the metabolomics of the biofilm, its formation, and related infections. The book includes the metabolomics study of various types of biofilms and details new strategies in targeting metabolic pathways for inhibiting the biofilm. The book also describes various types of metabolomics studies like metabolomics of oral biofilm and metabolomics of biofilm by nosocomial microbes. It also points out the recent advancements on various aspects of metabolomics studies pertaining to biofilms, related infections, their pathogenesis, and present-day treatment strategies. Microbial Biofilms: Challenges and Advances in Metabolomic Study is a helpful resource to scientists and researchers engaged in biofilm studies, precisely on the metabolomic changes at molecular level occurring in the participating microorganisms. It is also fascinating and thought provoking for the clinicians and health professionals actively involved in the treatment of biofilm mediated chronic infections, since it depicts the pathogenic consequences of the small molecular interactions of the metabolites in biofilm. - Discusses recent trends in biofilms research - Details newer strategies in treating the biofilm by targeting metabolic pathways - Covers chronic infections caused by biofilm and their metabolomics studies - Examines various analytical aspects on the metabolomics study of biofilm as well as how metabolomics regulate the formation of the biofilm - Incorporates relevant case studies
