Le succès des précédentes éditions et l’évolution de la discipline justifient pleinement cette nouvelle édition, entièrement mise à jour. Plus qu’une simple réactualisation, il s’agit d’une refonte en profondeur de l’ouvrage prenant en compte les nouvelles avancées de la discipline. L'ouvrage a bénéficié de la contribution spécifique d'une vingtaine de nouveaux auteurs. Chaque domaine est traité par un ou plusieurs microbiologistes ayant une pratique et une expérience directe du champ concerné. Véritable synthèse de la spécialité, en même temps qu'ouvrage de paillasse utilisable au quotidien, ce manuel est organisé en quatre parties : - Technologies générales - Étude bactériologique syndromique des produits pathologiques - Identification et systématique bactérienne - Rôle du laboratoire dans l’instauration et la surveillance d’un traitement antibiotique Au sein de ces parties, plus de quarante chapitres abordent les germes sous l’angle taxonomique, mais aussi dans leur ensemble, dans le contexte des produits pathologiques. Les différents problèmes de gestion d’un laboratoire de bactériologie comme l’automatisation, l’accréditation, la sécurité, sont également abordés. Les chapitres sont facilement consultables et les informations recherchées très accessibles par un recours important aux encadrés, aux tableaux, ainsi qu’à des schémas et dessins originaux. Cet ouvrage s'attache à présenter aussi bien les démarches diagnostiques « historiques » pasteuriennes, que des méthodes de pointe basées sur les approches spectrométriques (avec la révolution apportée par le MALDI-TOF), génomiques, antigéniques, protéiques seules ou combinées. Il s'adresse aux bactériologistes, débutants ou confirmés, à tous les biologistes et cliniciens, mais également, à toutes les personnes désireuses de suivre la révolution de la microbiologie de ces dernières années.
