Abstract
Bacteriology 2 presents bacterial structure, diversity, taxonomy and identification, with an emphasis on medically important Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. It examines bacterial nutrition and metabolism, antibiotic classes, cellular targets and modes of action. Subsequent chapters distinguish intrinsic and acquired antibiotic resistance and describe molecular resistance mechanisms, mobile genetic elements and horizontal gene transfer. The final sections address bacterial pathogenicity and virulence, including adhesion, invasion, secretion systems, toxins, biofilms and evasion of host defenses. Intended for third-year undergraduate students in parasitology, the book integrates foundational bacteriology with microbial genetics and antimicrobial resistance.
