Larone’s medically significant fungi
The definitive method for recognizing fungi in clinical samples.
With a new team of writers, Larone’s Medically Significant Fungi, Seventh Edition, continues the longstanding tradition of exceptional content that will expand your knowledge and have a positive impact on your clinical mycology:
Describe the major types of mycoses in patients’ samples via direct microscopy of fixed slides.
Providing a logical progression of steps that identify the cultured organisms, utilizing detailed descriptions, images, and pointers that discuss the similarities and differences between the organisms, as well as selected references for additional information.
Over 150 species of fungi are commonly encountered in the clinical mycology laboratory, including new species additions for Emergomyces, Metarhizium anisopliae, Rasamsonia argillacea, Rhinocladiella mackenziei, Schizophyllum commune, and Thermothelomyces thermophilus.
Describe the specifics of each organism’s pathogenicity, growth characteristics, relevant chemical reactions, and microscopic features, all illustrated with photomicrographs, detailed and beautiful drawings, and color photos of the colony’s morphology and various test results.
Discussing the alterations in fungal taxonomy and terminology that are caused by the information gained through molecular studies of evolutionary relationships with fungi.
Discussing the fundamental principles of molecular diagnostic methods, such as nucleic acid amplification and sequencing, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and other commercial devices
Including an extensive section of easy-to-follow lab protocols, a comprehensive list of media and stain procedures, guidance on collection and preparation of patient specimens, and an illustrated glossary
With the help of Larone’s important fungicides: A Guide to Recognizing, both novices and experienced scientists in clinical microbiology can easily differentiate common fungicides.
