Luis M. de la Maza [and others]

A unique visual reference for the diagnostic microbiology laboratory. Conceived by a team of authors with decades of classroom and laboratory experience. Includes more than 730 brilliant, four-color images of common pathogenic bacteria and descriptions of the methods used to identify them. Valuable illustrative supplement for lectures and laboratory presentations, this easy-to-use atlas was written for laboratorians, clinicians, students, and anyone interested in the field of diagnostic medical bacteriology
