Numerous types of microorganisms are known to cause disease in humans. It is important to understand the morphology and staining characteristics of microorganisms obtained from patient samples. Clinicians also need reliable methods to determine if a patient has been infected with a microorganism. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay is an antibody-based assay that can be used to directly detect the presence of an organism in a sample, or to detect antibodies specific to an organism in a patient sample.
Objectives:
- Compare and contrast the morphological characteristics of various pathogenic bacteria, and explore the role of these bacteria in human diseases.
- Perform ELISA to detect the presence of an antigen from a pathogen.
- Analyze the morphology and structure of trophozoite, cyst, and other forms of eukaryotic microorganisms that cause diseases.
