Märksõnad:

This book is an introductory text that presents fundamental knowledge and recent advances in virology. It provides comprehensive coverage of different aspects like classification, structure, emerging viruses, cancer-causing viruses, and viral vaccines. It covers the basic biology of virus existence, evolution, and reoccurrence. It also incorporates the fundamentals of biophysical and biochemical aspects of viral replication. The book discusses important topics such as immunity to viral infections, bacteriophages, and techniques used in virology. The Textbook of General Virology is meant for undergraduate and postgraduate students of microbiology, immunology, genetics, and medicine.

Key Features:

  • Discusses introductory and foundational knowledge of viruses for students of life sciences and medicine

  • Covers the virus history, diversity of its infection strategy, and classification

  • Summarizes the characteristics of different viruses on the basis of nucleic acid genome type

  • Describes the biology of RNA and DNA viruses and their effect on cell growth control in animals and humans after infection

    • Reviews topics like immunity to viruses and viral vaccines
