Bacteriologia

The term ‘bacteriology’ is traditionally used to describe microscopic, typically single-celled organisms lacking a cell nucleus and which are known as prokaryotes. Delayed treatment due to late diagnosis can have dramatic, or even fatal consequences. For this reason, an early and rapid diagnosis is vital for a good prognosis.
