processing procedures for mycological studies, Saprophytic fungi, Yeasts of
medical importance, Cutaneous fungi, Subcutaneous fungi, Systemic mycoses,
Mycological procedures, Media and reagents, Maintaining stock cultures and

In this book, we discuss the changing medical and public profile of
fungal infections in the period 1850–2000. We consider four sets of diseases:
ringworm and athlete’s foot; thrush or candidiasis ; endemic, geographically
specific infections in North America and mycotoxins; and aspergillosis.
The main
purpose of the book, as its title implies, is to serve as a primer. The contents
are divided into two parts. The first deals with the clinical, theoretical and
experimental aspects of the subject, the second outlines the laboratory
procedures useful in examining a patient suspected of having one of the various
mycoses.

Laboratory Methods in Medical Mycology, Fungal Culturing, Techniques for
Identification of Fungi and Laboratory ID, Saprophytes, Yeast, Bacteria - Like
