PPT-Introduction to Mycology

Introduction to Mycology Mycology is the study of fungi Yeast Mold Mycology Yeasts and molds have different structural and reproductive characteristics Yeast are unicellular nucleated rounded fungi while molds are multicellular filamentous fungi.

Individual chapters are devoted to specific fungi and include an in-depth discussion in terms of unique risk factors, human infection, specimen sources, special precautions and much more. Useful as a reference for laboratory personnel who need to quickly and accurately identify fungi in clinical specimens! Multiple illustrations of each fungus, including detailed line drawings and photomicrographs, depict typical and atypical examples with explanations of identifying features.Unit I presents concise, easy-to-follow explanations of mycotic infections and the distinguishing characteristics of medically important fungi, particularly those responsible for human infections.Unit II offers a logical approach to laboratory procedures, including specimen selection, collection, and processing, safety protocols, and the staining methods and culture techniques used in the mycology laboratory, with special emphasis on serological procedures.Unit III identifies opportunistic pathogens and the essentials of microbiology, including colonial morphology and microscopy morphology.Units IV through VIII characterize specific fungi, including superficial infections, dermatophytoses, subcutaneous and systemic infections, and yeasts.Multiple illustrations of each fungus, including detailed line drawings and photomicrographs, depict typical and atypical examples of the fungus as it is likely to be seen in routine laboratory preparations, with explanations of identifying features.Scale drawings include a normal erythrocyte to show the relative size of different fungi.Numerous tables in each chapter compare the distinguishing characteristics and relationships among organisms.Each chapter includes learning objectives, learning assessment questions, with answers provided in the appendix, and a glossary of key terms with phonetic pronunciations.
