Welcome to Medical Microbiology
Welcome to Medical Microbiology
Medical Microbiology is a laboratory-based course investigating the identification and treatment of microbes as well as the role and impact of microbial agents within the health care profession. The course will include the principal characteristics and procedures used to identify normal flora and medically significant bacteria. We will study various microbes and their effect on body systems. The laboratory identification of the organism is based on morphological, cultural, and biochemical characteristics. Additional topics will include safety in the microbiology lab and antimicrobial sensitivity testing. Case studies relating to medically significant organisms and the diseases they cause will also be studied.
