Sommario/riassunto |
|
In a unique way, the laboratory professionalist's knowledge about the molecular diagnostics of infectious diseases is connected with the clinician's practical experience. The increasing prevalence of infectious diseases makes correct diagnosis, ordering the right tests, quality control and correct interpretation of the results even more important. The possible pathogens are discussed in the second part according to the specific symptoms or to where the infection is located in the body. For clinicians and laboratory professionalists Up-to-date diagnostics of all infectious diseases Molecular diagnostics, diseases, choice of |

In einzigartiger Weise wird das Wissen der Labordiagnostiker über molekulare Diagnostik von Infektionskrankheiten mit der praktischen Erfahrung der Kliniker verbunden. Die zunehmende Prävalenz von Infektionskrankheiten steigert die Bedeutung von korrekter Diagnosestellung, Beauftragung der richtigen Tests, Qualitätssicherung und der richtigen Interpretation der Ergebnisse. Die möglichen Pathogene werden im zweiten Teil in Abhängigkeit vom Symptom oder der Lokalisation der Infektion in ihrer Spezifität behandelt. für Kliniker und Labordiagnostiker Molekulardiagnostik, Krankheitsbilder, Methodenauswahl, Problemfälle Tabellen und Flussdiagramme |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book introduces the theory of stellar atmospheres. Almost everything we know about stars is by analysis of the radiation coming from their atmospheres. Several aspects of astrophysics require accurate atmospheric parameters and abundances. Spectroscopy is one of the most powerful tools at an astronomer’s disposal, allowing the determination of the fundamental parameters of stars: surface temperature, gravity, chemical composition, magnetic field, rotation and turbulence. These can be supplemented by distance measurements or pulsation parameters providing information about stellar interior and stellar evolution, otherwise unavailable. The volume is based on lectures presented at the Wrocław's Spectroscopic School aimed at training young researchers in performing quantitative spectral analysis |

of low-, mid-, and high-resolution spectra of B, A, and F-type stars. |
