About the Book

The classic resource for undergraduate microbiology laboratory courses just keeps getting better. The self-contained, clearly illustrated exercises and four-color format make "Microbiological Applications: A Laboratory Manual in General Microbiology" the ideal lab manual. Appropriate for either a majors or non-majors lab course, "Benson" assumes no prior organic chemistry course has been taken.
