| theory and application of microbiological assay: Theory and application of Microbiological Assay William Hewitt, 2012-12-02 Theory and Application of Microbiological Assay first presents an overview of microbiological assay, including general principles, basic techniques, capabilities, and limitations. This book also explains when to use a certain microbiological assay for specific analysis, citing examples to further clarify the matter. Some chapters discuss the test organisms and solutions, wherein test solutions are the final dilutions at a series of two or more concentrations that have been prepared from reference standard and unknown for application to the test system. Other chapters explore the various aspects of agar diffusion assays, tube assays, and diffusion assays. The book further looks into the quality control procedures, assay design and evaluation, and assay replication. This book will serve as an introduction to newcomers to the field and as a reference source for established workers in microbiological assay. |
| theory and application of microbiological assay: Microbiological Assay for Pharmaceutical Analysis William Hewitt, 2003-12-15 A user-friendly guide for the evaluation of microbiological assays, this book provides a lucid explanation of the sources of error in microbiological assay and helps analysts choose efficient assay designs that will minimize those sources of error. The author discusses microbiological assay as a branch of pharmaceutical analysis and distinguishes it from biological assay in general. He draws attention to the microbiological aspects that may not be so obvious to the chemical analyst and to the analytical aspects that may not be so obvious to the microbiologist. The book expands on the guidance given in pharmacopoeias and helps readers choose the assay design most appropriate for the purpose of their assay. |

| theory and application of microbiological assay: Microbiology for the Analytical Chemist R K Dart, 2007-10-31 Analytical chemists in industry are frequently faced with situations where a basic understanding of microbiology would be an advantage, for instance in the analysis of bacteria in food. Microbiology for the Analytical Chemist has been written specifically for analytical chemists who have little or no knowledge of microbiology, but might be required to interpret microbiological results. This book covers a wide range of microbiological situations in analysis. It deals with the question of establishing when a sample is contaminated, the problems of counting and identifying micro-organisms and establishing what effect they will have on the sample. The book examines the microbial contents of water and food. It also looks at the procedures for disinfecting and preservative testing. Traditional laboratory methods are discussed, and new rapid techniques are also considered. Microbiology for the Analytical Chemist is unusual in that it pulls together those aspects of microbiology which are of interest to analytical chemists and explains them at a basic level using practical situations as examples. This book will also be of interest to analytical chemists in academic or industrial laboratories, where there is no fund of microbiological experience to draw on. |

Gandhi, 2023-10-10 We are very pleased to put forth the first edition of 'Laboratory Manual of Pharmaceutical Microbiology'. This manual is prepared as per PCI Education Regulations, 2014 for Degree Course in Pharmacy. This manual is designed for 'outcome-based education' and each experiment is arranged in a uniform way with respect to its practical significance, practical outcomes (PrOs) and its mapping with course outcomes, minimum theoretical background, resources used, procedure, precautions, observations, result, conclusion, references and related questions. A sincere attempt has been made through this manual to provide practical knowledge to the students about various experiments in Pharmaceutical Microbiology. The manual mainly includes the experiments through which the students will learn to prepare various culture media, isolation and propagation of pure cultures of microorganisms. The students will be proficient in handling various equipment used in microbiology laboratory. The techniques like aseptic handling, transfer of the microbial cultures, disinfection and safety measures will also be imparted to the students. The students will also be able to perform staining procedures, microbial assays, sterility testing, biochemical testing and water sample testing in the laboratory. Each experiment is divided into sections like aim, practical significance, relevant course outcomes, practical skills, relevant affective domain related outcomes, practical outcomes, minimum theoretical background, requirements, related questions, and references for further reading. The manual has been designed with more emphasis on the practical skill improvement of the students so that the students can perform the practical with ease and comfort. We are very much thankful to the designer, publisher, printers and all the stakeholders for putting their efforts for successfully bringing this manual out for the students. Hope this manual will help the students to learn the concept, principles and perform the experiments in Microbiology. We wish them all the best!!! |

| theory and application of microbiological assay: Microbial Threats to Health Institute of Medicine, Board on Global Health, Committee on Emerging Microbial Threats to Health in the 21st Century, 2003-08-25 Infectious diseases are a global hazard that puts every nation and every person at risk. The recent SARS outbreak is a prime example. Knowing neither geographic nor political borders, often arriving silently and lethally, microbial pathogens constitute a grave threat to the health of humans. Indeed, a majority of countries recently identified the spread of infectious disease as the greatest global problem they confront. Throughout history, humans have struggled to control both the causes and consequences of infectious diseases and we will continue to do so into the foreseeable future. Following up on a high-profile 1992 report from the Institute of Medicine, Microbial Threats to Health examines the current state of knowledge and policy pertaining to emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases from around the globe. It examines the spectrum of microbial threats, factors in disease emergence, and the ultimate capacity of the United States to meet the challenges posed by microbial threats to human health. From the impact of war or technology on disease emergence to the development of enhanced disease surveillance and vaccine strategies, Microbial Threats to Health contains valuable information for researchers, students, health care providers, policymakers, public health officials. and the interested public. |
