Abstract
Antisepsis, disinfection, and sterilization are crucial tasks to be performed by all kinds of professionals working in settings in which people can be exposed to infectious agents. These settings include, for example, microbiology and public health laboratories, hospitals, the medical device and the pharmaceutical industry, food processing and water treatment plants, and, last but not least, physician, dentist, and veterinarian offices. The ultimate goal is to kill infectious agents or at least inhibit them in order to minimize their destructive effects. Yet, and surprisingly, we often find only fragmented information about the types, actions, and resistance of these methods in a single source. Author Gerald McDonnell recognized this shortcoming and prepared a comprehensive book that provides the reader with “all there is to know” about these important methods of infection prevention and contamination control.
