Among unconventional agents and unclassified viruses the contributions to this volume focused on prion-related diseases, with special emphasis on bovine spongiform encephalopathy and human spongiform encephalopathies, and Borna disease virus, an agent known since long time to be pathogenic for horses and sheep, which is now discussed as a potential pathogen for humans. Additionally, the volume contains articles about newly discovered viruses like porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome virus and viruses that are classified only provisionally like African swine fever virus, hepatitis C and E viruses, or the arteriviruses.

The subject of this book is pathobiology, the study of biological agents that cause disease. The focus will be confined to those agents that cause infectious disease. This book covers what makes an organism pathogenic; the range and diversity of infectious organisms such as multicellular parasites, single-celled protoctists, fungi, bacteria, viruses, prions; the major transmission routes such as food, water, air, person to person contact, animal vectors and medical procedures and has examples of complex life cycles.The case studies associated with this book are:Tuberculosis - requires 'Tuberculosis' booklet ISBN0749256567 and the 'Tuberculosis' CD ROM published by Wellcome Trust and can be purchased from www.cabi-publishing.org. The case study also refers readers to a mini-lecture on TB contained on the CD-ROM called 'Immunology Interactive' published by Mosby, ISBN 0723432872 and can be purchased from www.intl.elsevierhealth.comCholera - requires 'Cholera' booklet ISBN0749256648Syphilis - requires TV programme 'In Search of Syphilis' and 'Syphilis' booklet ISBN0749256559The S320 Reference CD ROM (CD0612) contains background information from level 1 and 2 Open University courses that is referred to in this book.

One hundred years ago, when Martinus W. Beijerinck in Delft and Friedrich Loeffler on Riems Island discovered a new class of infectious agents in plants and animals, a new discipline was born. This book, a compilation of papers written by well-recognized scientists, gives an impression of the early days, the pioneer period and the current state of virology. Recent developments and future perspectives of this discipline are sketched against a historic background. With contributions by A. Alcami, D. Baulcombe, F. Brown, L. W. Enquist, H. Feldmann, A. Garcia-Sastre, D. Griffiths, M. C. Horzinek, A. van Kammen, H.-D. Klenk, F. A. Murphy, T. Muster, R. O'Neill, P. Palese, C. Patience, R. Rott, H.- P. Schmiedebach, S. Schneider-Schaulies, G. L.

The term "unconventional virus" refers to virus-like agents that differ from conventional viruses in significant respects--resistance to agents that inactivate normal viruses, for example. Certain rare and fatal neurological disorders, such as the Creutzfeldt-Jacob syndrome and the Gerstmann-Straussler syndrome, are clearly produced by virus-like infectious agents, but the nature of these agents is not understood. This volume brings together the latest information on one such disease: Scrapie, a disease occurring in sheep. It discusses the nature of this infectious agent and insights gained through new techniques in molecular genetics. The work as a whole focuses on the implications of animal data for research on human disorders, such as the possible connection between unconventional viruses and Alzheimer's Disease. The discussions represent the work of specialists from a broad spectrum of fields including virology, neuropathology, and molecular biology.

As a distinct class of macromolecules, viruses are continually being studied in order to determine their properties. Following a knowledge of host-range infectivity, the particle mass-molecular weight of the virus and related properties - including size, shape, sedimentation, and diffusion coefficients - are also important characterizations. In the literature, these values have been determined for many viruses, and a variety of techniques are available by which such properties may be analyzed. Until now, there has been no single source for such information that the interested investigator may consult, and no databases provided this kind of information. CRC Handbook of Viruses: Mass-Molecular Weight Values and Related Properties corrects this deficiency by presenting such data for all classes of viruses; centering on viruses, their molecular weight, and their related properties; and acquainting the investigator to many methods for obtaining the mass-molecular weight value of viruses. This singular study explains the variety of methods available to the researcher as well as provides examples of each method. Molecular weight values are accessed directly from the book, saving the investigator a tedious search through the range of literature. Chapters discuss: Viruses as infectious agents and their role in establishing the relatively new discipline of molecular biology Essential components of viruses, protein, and nucleic acid - considering their discovery, nature, structural organization, and the forming of viruses from nucleoproteins Basic aspects of virus purification, preparative centrifuge, and various purification methods Basic aspects of crystallography, including procedures, x-ray analysis of the viral protein component, the arranging of subunits, and the composition of the intact virus Sedimentation experiments and studies used to obtain molecular weight Sedimentation and diffusion coefficients integral to the basic Svedberg equation Sedimentation equilibrium procedures The new Beckman Optima series of analytical ultracentrifuges Scattering studies, including small angle x-ray, small angle neutron, classical light scattering, and electron microscopy The renaissance of instrumentation in classical light scattering techniques Cold neutron facilities currently being set into operation by government laboratories Sizing and solvation of viruses in solution - their "natural environment" Critical modeling experiments Facilities and instrumentation for molecular weight studies - including the high voltage transmission electron microscope for obtaining mass values of viral inclusion bodies CRC Handbook of Viruses serves the: Researcher seeking values of virus molecular weight and related parameters Investigator getting started in virology and seeking information on physical chemical procedures Student interested in viruses as infectious agents
