Enterobacteria

The Enterobacteria, 2nd Edition provides a comprehensive examination of current research on every genus in the family Enterobacteriaceae. A host of diagnostic tables, reference charts, color plates, and various other laboratory resources, this revised reference is an important source of information for microbiologists, lab directors, pathologists, and infectious disease specialists. The Enterobacteria, 2nd Edition presents complete medical information on each genus, including taxonomy, epidemiology, infectious disease spectrum, identification, pathogenicity, and antimicrobial susceptibility. Additionally, this new volume presents unique information on procedures and protocols for identification of atypical or unusual variants of each species. Select new features of the second edition are use of the genome sequence as a means of identification and classification, coverage of the reclassified genus Plesiomonas, and a brand-new appendix containing differential biochemical tables.
