• The Mushroom Toxins
  Mushroom intoxication is triggered by the ingestion of raw or cooked fruiting bodies like mushrooms or toadstools of several species of higher fungi as verified by examination done through the help of medical microscopy using a microscope. The name toadstool is usually provided to poisonous mushrooms but for persons who are not experts in mushroomread more...


• The Anisakis Simplex and Related Worms
  Anisakis simplex also known as the herring worm, Pseudoterranova decipiens also known as cod or seal worm from the families of Phocanema and Terranova, Contracaecum species and Hysterothylacium or Thynnascaris species are anisakid nematodes or roundworms, which have been incriminated in human contaminations triggered by the ingestion of raw or improperly cooked seafood with the read more...


• The Eustrongylides Species
  Larval Eustrongylides species are large, bright red roundworms or nemotodes, as seen by means of medical microscopy using a microscope, having the length of twenty-five to one hundred and fifty millimeters and a diameter of two millimeters. They come about in freshwater, brackish water and in marine varieties of fish. The larvae typically mature in read more...


• The Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids
  Pyrrolizidine alkaloid poisoning is triggered by ingestion of plant material having these alkaloids as examined through medical microscopy using a microscope. The plants can be eaten as food, for medicinal uses or as contaminants of other agricultural crops. As monitored through medical microscopy using a microscope, cereal crops and forage crops are at time infected read more...


• The Prions and Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies
  Prions are natural proteins of animal tissues that may misfold and turn contagious. They are not considered as viruses or cellular organisms as observed by means of medical microscopy using a microscope. In their normal noninfectious status, these proteins may be included in cell to cell interaction as monitored through medical microscopy using a microscope. read more...


• Medical Microscopy
  This is the new millennium where everything is ready by touch of a hand, now machines operate without people operating them at the site; surgeries are being done without patient and doctor contact, digital imaging, touch screen phones, and all the new technologies that have made life easier. Even microscope have evolved in the pastread more...
