| Popis | Since my early investigations with Harry D. Peck, Jr and Jean LeGall, I have been interested in the anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria. While my research initially addressed stress response in sulfate reducers, our research group in the past few years has expanded into studying the effect of sul-fate-reducing bacteria on irritable bowel disease. It was through this interest in intestinal sulfate-reducing bacteria that I first became aware of the publications of Dr. Ivan Kushke vych. Thus, I have read this monograph with more than casual interest and have concluded that it is an extraordinary contribution which merits publication. In the following, I'll provide comments to support my evaluation. The initial chapter provides background information on the salient characteristics of the sulfate-reducing bacteria including their activities in the intestine. Since this monograph is intended, in part, to be used by students new to the subject, the illustrations and laboratory techniques enable the reader to achieve a deep understanding of the subject. |
