The accurate and reliable diagnosis of transmissible diseases is the most powerful weapon available to ensure their control, and in some cases eradication. The detection of parasites in clinical cases, companion and farm animals, and in the environment is relatively easy since many of them are visible to the naked eye, and those that are not are readily detected by light microscopy. Fungal infections can similarly be determined. Bacteria are somewhat harder to detect. Although their presence can frequently be detected by light microscopy, differential diagnosis, beyond their gross morphology, is almost always impossible. However, most bacterial pathogens can be ... Read more

Reviews for Diagnostic Virology Protocols
". . .an invaluable source of information for clinical and non-clinical virologists and microbiologists. . .would be a good asset to most research laboratories. . .For those that do perform these assays, it is invaluable."-Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal
