Produktbeschreibung

This book provides an overview of cutting-edge and next-generation research and technologies for combating antimicrobial resistance. Antibiotic-resistant infections are projected to cause 10 million deaths annually by the year 2050. A sustainable, unified approach by researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and the public is urgently needed to stem this trend. This book aims to provide a comprehensive summary of current and future-facing efforts to mitigate the threat of AMR through a One-Health approach. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and the public about AMR and novel strategies to combat AMR.

Nadeem Akhtar, PhD, Department of Animal Biosciences, University of Guelph, Ontario N1G 2W1, Canada. Email: [e-mail]. Dr. Nadeem Akhtar, Ph.D., currently works at the University of Guelph, Canada as a Research Associate. His current research focuses on biotechnology in animal nutrition, where the main objective is to improve animals' health for a better and disease-free lifestyle. Before the Research Associate role, he has worked as a Post-doctoral Researcher in the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Waterloo, Canada (2019-2020), and in the Department of Animal Biosciences, University of Guelph, Canada (2015-2019). Dr. Akhtar was awarded a Ph.D. from the Department of Biotechnology, Thapar University, India. He has qualified National Eligibility test (NET-2010) and Graduate Aptitude Test (GATE) in Life Sciences (2010) and Biotechnology (2011). His scientific contributions include more than 22 articles in peer-reviewed international journals, 10 book chapters, and a patent. He reviewed several research articles for reputed journals, including RSC Advances, Journal of Applied Microbiology, Scientific Reports, Poultry Science, and many more.  Dr. Kumar Siddharth Singh, Institute for Microbiology, Leibniz University, Hannover, 30419, Germany. Email: [e-mail]. Dr. Kumar Siddharth Singh is a trained biotechnologist interested in host-microbe interactions, protein science, molecular microbiology, and omics technologies. He has a Master's degree in Biotechnology from Thapar University, Patiala, India, and Bachelor's degree from Anugrah Narayan College, Patna, India. He obtained a Ph.D. in Animal Biotechnology from ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal, India, and developed a potential nutraceutical of probiotic origin to protect against gastrointestinal infections. He is also trained in food safety and quality management, emphasizing regulatory standards relevant to thefood and biotechnology industry. He has teaching experience at graduate and post-graduate levels and has many years of mentoring experience. He has industry exposure, more than four years of post-doctoral research experience, and has been awarded many national and international academic awards at different levels of his career from different agencies. He has many scientific articles and reviews to his name and serves as an editorial board member of two journals.  Prerna, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, Patiala, Punjab, India. Email: [e-mail]. Prerna is a Ph.D. Candidate at the Department of Biotechnology, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, India, since July 2013. She received a scholarship under the Government of India scheme TEQIP-II (July 2013- June 2016) and served as a teaching assistant in Biotechnology.  Her current research focuses on developing green novel strategies to fabricatevarious nanoparticles and interests, including nanobiotechnology in medicine, industry, and agriculture. She has optimized gram-scale synthesis of nanoparticles from various plants and alga. She is involved in evaluating strategies employed to remediate industrial wastes with a vision to conserve soil and water, promote water reuse efficiency, and protect soil and water quality in diverse agro-ecosystems. As a member of the interdisciplinary research group, she used different plants, algae, fungi, and bacteria to fabricate ZnO nanoparticles. She has extensive experience in characterizing nanoparticles using different spectroscopic, diffractographic, crystallographic, and advanced microscopic analyses. She served as a resource person for different training programs and workshops at STEP (Science and Technology Entrepreneur's Park), Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology. She has published two research articles, two book chapters and presented her research in many conferences andsymposia.   Dinesh Goyal, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, Patiala, Punjab, India. Email: [e-mail].  Dinesh Goyal, microbiologist graduated from Division of Microbiology, Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi in 1990. He served at University of Delhi, New Delhi and Thapar Centre for Industrial Research, Patiala before joining Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (Deemed to be University), Patiala as a faculty in 2000 and is presently the Professor in the Department of Biotechnology.
