Description 1 online resource (226 pages) : illustrations (some color) Summary This book provides a comprehensive reference work on this ubiquitous group of microorganisms for the biomedical community, and intends to stimulate further research into the biochemistry and physiology of bifidobacteria and their role in health and disease of newborns and even adult human beings. Discussions of bifidobacteria include chapters on nomenclature and taxonomy, ecology, morphology, metabolism, membrane and cell wall structure, clinical applications, metal transport, and future research trends. Each chapter ends with a summary. The book is amply illustrated and extensively referenced Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Anatoly Bezkorovainy, Ph. D., is Professor of Biochemistry at the Rush-Presbyterian- St. Luke's Medical Center, Chicago. He received his B.S. degree from the University of Chicago in 1956 and the Ph. D. in 1960 from the University of Illinois. His postdoctoral work was done at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee and the National Animal Disease Laboratory in Ames, Iowa. Dr. Bezkorovainy has authored or co-authored a biochemistry text and monographs on protein chemistry and the biochemistry of iron. His research publications have dealt with mammalian and microbial iron metabolism and with the biochemistry of human and bovine milks. Dr. Bezkorovainy is a member of the American Chemical Society, American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, American Institute of Nutrition, American Dairy Science Association, and the National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry.
