Provides an introduction to laboratory techniques and principles that are important in each area of microbiology. This work is prepared to accompany Prescott et al's Microbiology, 6/e.

Prescott, Harley and Klein's 6th edition provides a balanced, comprehensive introduction to all major areas of microbiology. Because of this balance, Microbiology, 6/e is appropriate for students preparing for careers in medicine, dentistry, nursing, and allied health, as well as research, teaching, and industry. Biology and chemistry are prerequisites.

The Laboratory Exercises in Microbiology, 5e by Pollack, et al. presents exercises and experiments covered in a 1 or 2-semester undergraduate microbiology laboratory course for allied health students. The labs are introduced in a clear and concise manner, while maintaining a student-friendly tone. The manual contains a variety of interactive activities and experiments that teach students the basic concepts of microbiology. The 5th edition contains new and updated labs that cover a wide array of topics, including identification of microbes, microbial biochemistry, medical microbiology, food microbiology, and environmental microbiology.

This edition of 'Microbiology' provides a balanced, comprehensive introduction to all major areas of microbiology. The text is appropriate for students preparing for careers in medicine, dentistry, nursing and allied health, as well as research, teaching and industry.
