clear and concise overview of the subject that details the
techniques essential for ongoing research in the area. Drawing
together contributions from both scientists and clinicians working
in the field, the text will provide a valuable perspective on the
applicability of specific techniques to patient care.
A wide range of molecular, immunological and cytological
techniques are discussed throughout, with the inclusion of protocol
section in each chapter designed to provide both a background a
up-to-date account of the applications of each procedure. Every
technique is fully referenced and illustrations are provided where
required to enhance student understanding.
* comprehensive introduction to the key techniques critical to
the study of medical mycology
* clear explanation of how each technique is applied in the
lab
* contributions from internationally recognised experts in the
field
* outlines the background to many techniques required for the
successful completion of a research project
An invaluable reference for students of microbiology,
biochemistry and molecular biology as well as postgraduates and
researchers in the field of medical mycology looking for an
up-to-date overview of the latest laboratory techniques.
Editor: Dr Kevin Kavanagh, Department of Biology, National University of Ireland, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland

Index.
"There is no other current book that gives the details on
experimental procedures that this one does...a very worthwhile
acquisition for investigators working with fungi." (Doody's
Health Services)
"Will be very useful to many students and bench scientists
wishing to expand their repertoire of practical skills in medical
mycology." (Microbiology Today, March 2008)
Medical Mycology is a useful guide for molecular,
immunological, and cytological techniques that will provide useful
to researchers and students alike. (The Yale Journal of Biology
and Medicine, June 2007)
