Waterborne Pathogens, Detection Methods and Applications: Detection Methods and Applications

The main aim of Waterborne Pathogens, Detection Methods and Applications, Second Edition to give an overview of advanced emerging technologies for the detection of a range of waterborne pathogens. However, the book also presents existing methodology, and highlights where improvements can be made, as well as have a strong focus on applications and the ways in which new technology could be applied in water management. Additionally, the book addresses issues of sample preparation (from sampling through to concentration and enrichment), a key stage in any detection protocol. Gives an overview of advanced emerging technologies for the detection of a range of waterborne pathogensEnsures the latest research developments along with other changes in the sector, eg regulations, approaches etc, are covered and thus up-to-dateProvides an overview of the existing approaches and the key challenges before discussing sample processing and detection in turnPresents existing methodologies, and highlights where improvements can be made, as well as have a strong focus on applications and the ways in which new technology could be applied in water management INDICE: 1.
