About this ebook

Nanodiagnostics to Identify and Detect Microbial Infections and Antimicrobial Resistance: Volume One, Nanotheranostics, Microbial Infections, and Antimicrobial Resistance offers a comprehensive understanding of the global problem of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and provides insights into the various aspects of AMR and how nanodiagnostics can be utilized to combat it. This volume discusses the development of nanotechnologies for detecting and diagnosing microbial resistant pathogens and explores a range of nano-inspired diagnostics, including biosensors, microfluidic-assisted devices, nanorobotics, and nanocapsules.This book encompasses contributions from experts in the field, making it a valuable resource for researchers, academics, graduate students, industry professionals, and clinicians in microbiology, nanotechnology, and infectious diseases. It aids in early detection and identification of antimicrobial resistance, offering innovative solutions to combat this global challenge. - Addresses the major challenges posed by drug-resistant bacteria and how nanodiagnostics help in addressing them - Explores how nanotechnology can be applied for early detection and treatment of bacterial infections - Discusses the mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance, and of nanomaterials, in the development of nano-derived diagnostics to combat microbial infections
