Laboratory Exercises in Organismal & Molecular Microbiology
Alexander

A modern general microbiology laboratory manual that combines the procedural details of a laboratory manual with the photographic support of a laboratory atlas. The 46 class-tested laboratory experiments are divided into 9 specialty areas, and the extensive four-color illustration program includes 220 photos and micrographs plus 150 line drawings.An extensive full-color art program integrated into the laboratory exercises allows students to not only conduct a variety of laboratory exercises but also to interpret and confirm their results with the help of the large collection of color photographs.Unique exercise!! Simulation of Infectious Disease Transmission (Lab Exercise 44). Developed in conjunction with the pioneering program The Biology Project at the University of Arizona, this exercise allows class members to trade simulated body fluids in a random pattern coordinated by the lab instructor. ELISA testing makes it clear to students how easily the mock pathogen has passed through intermediaries to individuals in distant locations (across the lab).Emphasis on modern lab safety issues. Besides the usual safety advisories, this manual includes a table ranking the Biosafety Level of every bacteria used in the lab exercises, specific guidelines for working with bacteria in each Biosafety Level, and prominent icons throughout the lab exercises advising students of the Biosafety Level of the bacteria in use. Safety Stops throughout the manual also remind students of particular hazards in each exercise. No other lab manual on the market provides the Biosafety Level cautions and identification.A website (Lab Central) is available to provide instructors with protected access to animations of lab tests, electronic files of all the images found in the lab, and an instructor's manual with tips and guidelines.
