Overview of methods used in microbiology. Sampling and processing of samples for microbiological analysis. Conventional microbiological methods - culture methods. Conventional microbiological methods - microscopic methods. Methods for identifying microorganisms. Molecular biological methods used in microbiology - PCR, hybridization. Molecular biological methods used in microbiology - sequencing, genome analysis, bioinformatics. Immunochemical methods for determining microorganisms - precipitation methods; non-precipitation methods with a label; non-precipitation methods without a label. Methods used in clinical microbiology. Instrumental methods used in microbiology - spectrometric, chromatographic, electromigration methods; flow cytometry. Susceptibility of microorganisms to antimicrobial agents - disk diffusion method, dilution tests, genotyping. Determination of metabolites of microorganisms - proteins and their derivatives. Determination of metabolites of microorganisms - carbohydrates, lipids and their derivatives. Important microbial toxins and methods for their determination. Determination of other secondary metabolites of microorganisms - pigments, antibiotics, vitamins and others.
