To determine the prevalence of adenovirus and its serotypes in diarrhoeal stools in Saudi Arabia, 3,000 stool specimens were collected prospectively from subjects of all ages over a 28-month period. A total of 220 positive isolates were obtained. Fif
The Flesh and Bones of Medical Microbiology presents a very clinically orientated account of the subject. It covers all the key concepts you need with no gaps. It can be used either as an introduction to a topic, or as a revision aid. Dfficult concep

The association between human papillomavirus (HPV) and squamous carcinoma is well established. In the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) we have an effective technique for detecting small quantities of viral DNA, but the assay requires tissue taken at e
