Overview
This work presents an overview of the clinical pathology of mycobacterial and nonpathogens, data on genetically based methodologies for clinical testing, straightforward protocols for molecular manipulations, and theoretical explanations of the molecular mechanisms involved. It explains the safest and most efficient methods for detecting mycobacterium avium complex, providing the means to combat this common secondary opportunistic infection in AIDS patients.Disc. clin. pathol. of microbes, genetic based methodologies for testing, protocols for molec. manipulation, etc.
