The detection of parasites in clinical cases, companion and farm animals, and in the environment is relatively easy since many of them are visible to the naked eye, and those that are not are readily detected by light microscopy. Fungal infections can similarly be determined. Bacteria are somewhat harder to detect. Although their presence can frequently be detected by light microscopy, differential diagnosis, beyond their gross morphology, is almost always impossible. However, most bacterial pathogens can be cultured in the laboratory and can be accurately identified by combinations of a series of simple tests such as morphology, staining, antibiotic sensitivity, biochemical analyses, nutrient dependence, and phage sensitivity. Viruses, however, have proved much more difficult; their size and absolute dependence of the host cell for propagation have rendered useless the methods traditionally used for other microorganisms. Until the development of tissue culture in the middle of this century, diagnosis was entirely dependent on t | 出版日期 | Book 1998 | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1385/0896034798 | isbn_softcover | 978-0-89603-401-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-59259-596-9Series ISSN 1543-1894 Series E-ISSN 1940-6037 | issn_series | 1543-1894 | copyright | Humana Press 1998 |
