Clostridial Diseases of Animals is the first book to focus on clostridial diseases in domestic and wild animals, offering a comprehensive reference on these common diseases. Emphasizing clinical applications, the book offers a complete, in-depth examination of clostridial disease, from pathogenesis, pathology, and microbiology to diagnostic techniques, clinical management, and treatment. Combining pathology and microbiology, a highlight of the book is the high-quality clinical photographs, which are valuable for recognizing disease patterns. The book begins with sections on the pathogenic clostridia and the toxins produced, then covers specific diseases produced by the pathogenic clostridia. Clostridial Diseases of Animals summarizes current understanding of clostridial diseases and discusses important areas of diagnostic uncertainty, making it an essential reference for veterinary clinicians, diagnosticians, pathologists, microbiologists, students, and governmental agencies. Key features * Provides a single resource for all aspects of clostridial diseases * Presents current, comprehensive information with a focus on clinical relevance * Covers each disease in depth, including etiology, epidemiology, clinics, gross pathology, histopathology, diagnostics, diagnostic criteria, prophylaxis, control, and treatment * Written by the world-leading experts in the field of clostridial diseases in animals * Offers photographs and summary tables to support the concepts discussed in the text and aid in recognitionHinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
