Infos

Veterinary diagnostic microbiology is concerned with the recognition of a large number of microorganisms that either cause or are frequently associated with infectious diseases of animals. In this practical laboratory manual for the veterinary microbiologist, the authors provide concise information on the materials and methods of bacteriology, mycology and virology. It is an illustrated guide intended to assist those with some previous microbiological experience. The guide covers the collection, isolation and culture of diagnostic specimens, with detailed notes on the biochemical, serological and other tests currently used to identify and distinguish between microbial pathogens. A comprehensive series of 300 colour photographs is included to enable the reader to recognize organisms which are of clinical and economic importance worldwide.
