A new edition of this comprehensive manual on causes and prevention of laboratory-acquired infections, for laboratory personnel and managers.
The two authors have thoroughly revised this established text, to include the recent developments in infections and agents, and current European regulations and recommendations. Laboratories are increasingly under pressure to keep up to date with these changes. They will benefit from the practical advice in this new edition, and the experience of Chris Collins who has an international reputation in laboratory safety and laboratory-acquired infections, and of David Kennedy's expertise in the assessments of risk and the safety of equipment.
D. A. Kennedy is Visiting Fellow, Cranfield Biomedical Centre, Cranfield University, Bedfordshire, UK.
