Pathogenic Viruses and Armamentarium Design

Pathogenic Viruses and Armamentarium Design covers the latest developments in viral target elucidation and viral control using wet and dry lab strategies. The control and combat strategies and their implementation compiled in this book are a valuable aid in understanding viral disease progression and designing new strategies against existing and evolving viruses. This important resource is a comprehensive compilation of anti-viral approaches designed and devised using computational and other laboratory techniques. The content targets the readership of college students, scientists and research investigators working on the pathogenic virus and development of prophylactics and therapeutics against viral infection.

Researchers from biotechnology, infection biology, chemistry and pharmaceutical science will surely benefit from this content. The incorporation of software and tools will also help both experienced and new bioinformaticians and students.

• Provides an overview of human pathogenic viruses, viral entry and disease progression, and strategic approaches to combating existing and evolving viruses
• Explores available techniques for clinical diagnostics, virology, and viral immune diagnostics
• Comprehensively discusses antiviral drugs, their targets, mechanism of action, design, and development challenges
