    Summary: This comprehensive update of the previous two successful editions covers both basic and advanced anesthesia topics. These include pharmacology, procedures, monitoring, equipment, subspecialty anesthesia, safety, professionalism, pain management, and more. Chapters are concise, easy-to-read, and authored by faculty specialized in medical education. They feature case studies designed to help apply theoretical knowledge to real patient situations, as well as questions and answers. A convenient resource for medical students, student registered nurse anesthetists, and student anesthesiologist assistants in any student of anesthesia will find this unique book useful.

    Protein A-containing staphylococci sensitized with antisera against synthetic Salmonella O-antigens 2, 4 and 9, representative of serogroups A, B and D, respectively, were used for identification of Salmonella bacteria by co-agglutination. Out of 416 Salmonella bacteria tested the reagents correctly identified all 24 serogroup A strains, 119 serogroup B strains and 39 serogroup D strains. Unexpected agglutination was registered with two of 144 strains belonging to serogroup C 2 with reagent containing antiserum against synthetic O antigen 4. No agglutination occurred when 24 non-Salmonella bacterial strains were tested. Approximately 10(8)bacteria were required for positive co-agglutination. As compared to standard slide agglutination with conventional anti-Salmonella O factor sera, the co-agglutination metod was favourable in that the reactions were stronger, although the concentration of antiserum used was from 20 to 200 times lower. The co-agglutination method could also be used for detection of soluble antigens in the form of lipopolysaccharides from Salmonella bacteria in concentrations of 1 microgram/ml. When the sensitivity of the co-agglutination technique was compared with indirect immunofluorescence (IFL), the IFL method was shown to be at least 1000 times more sensitive.
