Laboratory Techniques of Infectious Diseases

Laboratory tests may identify organisms directly (e.g., visually, using a microscope, growing the organism in culture) or indirectly (e.g., identifying antibodies to the organism). General types of tests include  a) Microscopy b) Culture  c) Immunologic tests (agglutination tests such as latex agglutination, enzyme immunoassays, Western blot, precipitation tests, and complement fixation tests) d) Nucleic acid–based identification methods e) Non-nucleic acid–based identification methods
