Microbiology / Infectious Diseases

This book contains multiple choice questions (MCQs) designed to help students review their knowledge of Microbiology acquired through standard textbooks. It is primarily meant for students preparing for PG competitive examinations (such as USMLE, GATE, AFMC, AIIMS) and is essential for students of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Nursing, serving as a self-assessment opportunity.

A detailed review of the Measles (Rubeola) virus, covering its structure, pathogenesis (HA and F proteins), clinical presentation (Koplik spots, cephalocaudal rash), complications (Giant cell pneumonia, SSPE, ADEM), diagnosis (IgM serology, Warthin Finkeldey cells), and prevention via the live attenuated MMR vaccine. Also includes preliminary notes on Rubella (Matonavirus family).

A comprehensive analysis of the engineering principles required for optimizing microbial cell factories used in the production of various biomolecules, published by Academic Press (Elsevier).

An introductory microbiology text developed specifically for allied health professionals, emphasizing critical thinking and application of material through the unique “S.M.A.R.T.” problem-solving framework and real-world clinical cases. The text is aligned with the American Society of Microbiology’s Nursing and Allied Health Undergraduate Curriculum Guidelines and includes NCLEX/HESI/TEAS-style questions.

A section (Part VIa) of the AMBOSS question bank dedicated to reviewing and testing knowledge in Microbiology.

A foundational textbook designed for introductory courses in microbiology, covering microbial structure, metabolism, genetics, immunology, host-pathogen interactions, and environmental microbiology, suitable for allied health and science students.

This document provides the clinical breakpoint tables and associated inhibition zone diameter correlates published by EUCAST for determining antimicrobial susceptibility. Version 9.0, valid from 2019-01-01, includes guidance on technical uncertainty, detailed breakpoints for numerous pathogens (including Enterobacterales, Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., and Pseudomonas spp.), PK-PD non-species related breakpoints, and expert rules.

A comprehensive and authoritative textbook covering the fundamental principles of microbiology, including microbial nutrition, genetics, metabolism, ecology, and pathogenesis, widely used in biological and medical curricula.

This book focuses on the microbial world and its impact on human health. It aims to make readers conversant in the language of microbiomes and metagenomics, providing examples of how microbial communities affect health and cure diseases, and exploring typical practical examples of how medical interventions interact with the microbiome and change outcomes. The text includes discussions on research carried out on endophytic fungi.

A comprehensive textbook detailing the principles and practices of microbiology relevant to the field of pharmacy, focusing on topics such as anti-infective agents, sterilization, and pharmaceutical technology.

This resource provides cutting-edge information on the diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections (mycoses). It is part of the Infectious Disease series and addresses the continued importance of fungi as agents of human infection, especially as the at-risk population expands due to factors like immunosuppressive therapies and cancer treatment.

A fundamental guide for clinicians detailing the principles and strategies necessary for selecting and utilizing the correct antibacterial agents to treat bacterial infections effectively.
