Putting knowledge to work allows countries to improve everyday life for their people, opening up new possibilities for small and medium-size enterprises and other less-developed economic groups. This volume examines the challenges and opportunities for Mexico's knowledge-based economy, offering strategies for making major improvements in the country's capacity to generate knowledge and transform it into wealth.WBI development studies.EducationEconomic aspectsMexicoInformation societyMexicoInformation technologyEconomic aspectsMexicoTechnological innovationsEconomic aspectsMexicoTechnological innovationsGovernment policyMexicoMexicoEconomic conditions1994-MexicoEconomic policy1994-Electronic books.EducationEconomic aspectsInformation societyInformation technologyEconomic aspectsTechnological innovationsEconomic aspectsTechnological innovationsGovernment policy338.972Kuznetsov Yevgeny(Yevgeny N.),1964-920581Dahlman Carl J.1950-920582World Bank Institute.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454043703321Mexico's transition to a knowledge-based economy2064753UNINA04570nam 22007092 450 991045051480332120151005020624.01-107-13030-10-521-12675-41-280-16045-497866101604571-139-14702-10-511-11931-30-511-05698-20-511-30748-90-511-54157-00-511-07177-9(CKB)1000000000018019(EBL)217688(OCoLC)57417985(SSID)ssj0000108436(PQKBManifestationID)11140263(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000108436(PQKBWorkID)10043697(PQKB)10908718(UkCbUP)CR9780511541575(MiAaPQ)EBC217688(Au-PeEL)EBL217688(CaPaEBR)ebr10069981(CaONFJC)MIL16045(EXLCZ)99100000000001801920090501d2002|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBacterial adhesion to host tissues mechanisms and consequences /edited by Michael Wilson[electronic resource]Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2002.1 online resource (xvi, 328 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Advances in molecular and cellular microbiology ;1Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).0-511-06331-8 0-521-80107-9 Includes bibliographical references and index.Surface protein adhesins of staphylococci / Timothy J.

Lamont.This book is about the adhesion of bacteria to their human hosts. Although adhesion is essential for maintaining members of the normal microflora in/on their host, it is also the crucial first stage in any infectious disease. It is important, therefore, to fully understand the mechanisms underlying bacterial adhesion so that we may be able to develop methods of maintaining our normal (protective) microflora, and of preventing pathogenic bacteria from initiating an infectious process. These topics are increasingly important because of the growing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and, consequently, the need to develop alternative approaches for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. This book describes the bacterial structures responsible for adhesion and the molecular mechanisms underlying the adhesion process. It also deals with the consequences of adhesion for both the adherent bacterium and the host cell/tissue to which it has adhered.Advances in molecular and cellular microbiology ;1.BacteriaAdhesionMolecular microbiologyPathology, CellularBacteriaAdhesion.Molecular microbiology.Pathology, Cellular.611.01815Wilson Michael1947 April 12-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450514803321Bacterial adhesion to host tissues2449931UNINA
