| medical microbiology ebooks: 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. |

| medical microbiology ebooks: 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. |

| medical microbiology ebooks: Medical Microbiology Dr. Anusha G, Dr. Maheshwary D, Mr. Sujith R, Dr. R. Ishwarya, The development of microorganisms poses a significant problem for the contemporary medical system and for public health. Since viruses like influenza, HIV, TB, malaria, and SARS are always changing, maintaining monitoring and gaining knowledge into the underlying mechanism is essential. In the field of medical microbiology, study the composition, diversity, and behaviors of microorganisms, as well as how they have an effect on human health and well-being, especially as infectious agents. Epidemiology as well as the biology of microorganisms are both broken down in great depth in the field of medical microbiology. It examines the factors that contribute to the pathogenicity & virulence in microbial organisms. It examines the innate propensity for sensitivity to antimicrobial agents or immunity to such drugs. The categorization of Neisseriaceae as well as its clinical significance are completely explored. There is an extensive discussion on both the definition of haemophiles and its infectious potential. This book provides an in-depth discussion on the categorization of spiral bacteria as well as their therapeutic significance. The process of isolating fungus as well as identifying them is explained in its entirety. The laboratory & serological diagnosis for systemic fungal infections are discussed in this book. The principles of microbiology & immunology are presented in an interesting way that is both clear and concise throughout this condensed and user-friendly book. |
