Photo Gallery of Pathogenic Bacterial TO GO BACK TO MY  HOMEPAGE

Photo Gallery of Bacterial Pathogens

The web contains many images of bacteria. The virologists have got a wonderfulsite called the BigPicture Book of Viruses, the parasitologists have a site calledTheParasitology Images List, and the mycologists have TheUniv. of Wisconsin Madison Mycology Image Library and FungiImages on the Net. The purpose of this page is to provide a centrallocation to go to for images of pathogenic bacteria on the web. The majorityof these bacterial images are found on sites other than this one. One siteparticularly useful is the Introductionto Clinical Microbiology site at the University of Texas MedicalSchool in Houston Texas. This project is not doneand if you know of other great locations for images please email me NealChamberlain.
