microbiology for medical students: Medical Microbiology E-Book David Greenwood, Richard C B Slack, Michael R. Barer, Will L Irving, 2012-07-17 Medical microbiology concerns the nature, distribution and activities of microbes and how they impact on health and wellbeing, most particularly as agents of infection. Infections remain a major global cause of mortality and in most hospitals around one in ten of those admitted will suffer from an infection acquired during their stay. The evolution of microbes presents a massive challenge to modern medicine and public health. The constant changes in viruses such as influenza, HIV, tuberculosis, malaria and SARS demand vigilance and insight into the underlying process. Building on the huge success of previous editions, Medical Microbiology 18/e will inform and inspire a new generation of readers. Now fully revised and updated, initial sections cover the basic biology of microbes, infection and immunity and are followed by a systematic review of infective agents, their associated diseases and their control. A final integrating section addresses the essential principles of diagnosis, treatment and management. An unrivalled collection of international contributors continues to ensure the relevance of the book worldwide and complementary access to the complete online version on Student Consult further enhances the learning experience. Medical Microbiology is explicitly geared to clinical practice and is an ideal textbook for medical and biomedical students and specialist trainees. It will also prove invaluable to medical laboratory scientists and all other busy professionals who require a clear, current and most trusted guide to this fascinating field. |
microbiology for medical students: Cases in Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Peter H. Gilligan, Daniel S. Shapiro, Melissa B. Miller, 2014-08-01 Cases in Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases challenges students to develop a working knowledge of the variety of microorganisms that cause infections in humans. This valuable, interactive text will help them better understand the clinical importance of the basic science concepts presented in medical microbiology or infectious disease courses. The cases are presented as unknowns and represent actual case presentations of patients the authors have encountered. Each case is accompanied by several questions to test knowledge in four broad areas including the organism's characteristics and laboratory diagnosis; pathogenesis and clinical characteristics of the infection; epidemiology; and prevention and, in some cases, drug resistance and treatment. This new fourth edition includes: an entirely new section, Advanced Cases, which includes newly recognized disease agents as well as highly complex cases where the interaction of the immune system and human pathogens can be more closely examined a revised Primer on the Laboratory Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases section that reflects the increasing importance of molecular-based assays Forty-two new cases that explore the myriad advances in the study of infectious disease in the past decade Thirty-two updated cases that reflect the current state of the art as it relates to the organism causing the infection This textbook also include specific tools to assist students in solving the cases, including a table of normal values, glossary of medical terms, and figures illustrating microscopic organism morphology, laboratory tests, and clinical symptoms. Cases in Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases is a proven resource for preparing for Part I of the National Board of Medical Examiners Exam and an excellent reference for infectious disease rotations. |
microbiology for medical students: The MicroBook Oto Melter, Rute Castelhano , 2019-05-01 This textbook was designed to help students during their study of the extensive discipline of clinical microbiology. It can also serve as a practical companion for physicians in many fields, providing basic information related to the diagnostics of the most important causes of infectious diseases. This book is unique in that it was written by medical students for medical students. Its core originated under the leadership of Doc. MVDr. Oto Melter, Ph.D., who wrote some of the chapters, structured information and took illustrative photographs. Most chapters, though, were written by a team of students from the 2nd Medical School, Charles University, led by Rute Castelhano, while Shenali Amaratunga edited the text linguistically. The authors believe that the original photo-documentation and diagrams can help students better understand the topics covered. The textbook also includes case studies for students to practice basic knowledge in the field. |

microbiology for medical students: General Microbiology Linda Bruslind, 2020 Welcome to the wonderful world of microbiology! Yay! So. What is microbiology? If we break the word down it translates to the study of small life, where the small life refers to microorganisms or microbes. But who are the microbes? And how small are they? Generally microbes can be divided in to two categories: the cellular microbes (or organisms) and the acellular microbes (or agents). In the cellular camp we have the bacteria, the archaea, the fungi, and the protists (a bit of a grab bag composed of algae, protozoa, slime molds, and water molds). Cellular microbes can be either unicellular, where one cell is the entire organism, or multicellular, where hundreds, thousands or even billions of cells can make up the entire organism. In the acellular camp we have the viruses and other infectious agents, such as prions and viroids. In this textbook the focus will be on the bacteria and archaea (traditionally known as the prokaryotes,) and the viruses and other acellular agents. |
