Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Bacteriology (non-medical)

Series: Practical Approach Series

Anaerobes are diverse and fascinating organisms.

Due to recent advances in equipment and methodology researchers are now able to make increasingly widespread studies of their activities.

As a consequence, interest in anaerobes is growing rapidly. This book provides the first ready source of general methods of use to all anaerobic microbiologists, in addition to those which are valuable in the study of specific habitats or groups of organisms. Topics include isolation and culture techniques as well as a range of taxonomic methods, and protocols for biochemical and genetic studies. Several chapters are also devoted specifically to organisms with special culture requirements, such as the methanogens, sulphate-reducing bacteria, and anaerobic eukaryotes (including both protozoa and fungi).

This volume will be essential to all those interested in the study of anaerobic micro-organisms, whether in the fields of taxonomy, ecology, physiology or molecular biology.
