Summary

This new title provides information on the relationships of such biological materials as yeasts, fungi, and plasmids with metals they come in contact with. Readers will find in-depth discussions by noted experts in their respective fields on the toxicity of heavy metals, accumulation and precipitation of sulphides, and the reactions of bacterial cell walls to the presence of metal ions. This volume is ideal for undergraduates and graduates, as well as researchers unfamiliar with metal-microbe interactions who are seeking a useful introduction to the field.
