Full Test Bank for Textbook of Diagnostic Microbiology, 7th Edition by Connie R. Mahon and Donald C. Lehman
Full Test Bank for Textbook of Diagnostic Microbiology, 7th Edition by Connie R. Mahon and Donald C. Lehman Diagnose. Isolate. Identify. Report — with lab-perfect precision. The Complete Test Bank for Textbook of Diagnostic Microbiology, 7th Edition is the definitive digital exam engine for MLS, MLT, CLS, medical technology, and infection-prevention students. It delivers 6,900+ bench-ready, case-driven questions locked step-for-step to the gold-standard textbook used by NAACLS-accredited programs worldwide. Every question trains CLSI-grade identification, antimicrobial susceptibility logic, molecular confirmation, and outbreak-ready reporting — turning bench techs into diagnostic detectives. Chapter-Aligned, Lab-Real Question Banks The 7th edition’s specimen-to-report workflow is mirrored in 110–170 questions per chapter across 38 core chapters + 6 online modules. All items are quad-tagged: CLSI M100/M47/AST standards ASM Laboratory Curriculum Guidelines Bloom’s level (Knowledge → Application → Analysis → Evaluation) Certification blueprint (ASCP MLS, AMT MT, AAB) Core Modules: Specimen collection & transport Microscopy, staining, culture media Bacterial ID (Gram, biochemical, MALDI-TOF) Antimicrobial susceptibility (disk, MIC, Etest) Mycobacteriology, mycology, parasitology, virology Molecular diagnostics (PCR, NGS, LAMP) Infection control & biosafety Clinical Correlation: 1,800+ patient cases (sepsis, UTI, meningitis, pneumonia, wound, sterile fluids) Outbreak investigations (MRSA, CRE, Candida auris, Legionella) Antimicrobial stewardship (PK/PD, synergy, resistance mechanisms) Lab-Exact Question Formats Bench-Simulation NGN 1,000+ Hotspot (click Gram stain, select colony, mark zone size) 800+ Drag-and-Drop (media → organism → test → ID) 600+ CLOZE (fill MIC, report ESBL, interpret VITEK card) Image & Plate Gallery 750+ real bench photos: Gram stains, colony morphology, biochemical tubes, API strips, MALDI spectra, parasite eggs 150 interactive plates (zoom, annotate, measure zones) Calculations & Reporting CFU/mL from urine pour plate, MIC fold-dilution, QC range validation CAP workload units, turnaround time, critical value reporting Rationales That Read Like Bench Manuals Every answer unlocks 4-tier teaching: Correct ID + key characteristic CLSI M100 table + textbook page Rule-out logic (e.g., “Oxidase+ = Pseudomonas, not Enterobacterales”) Stewardship & safety pearl (e.g., “Carbapenemase = contact precautions + ID consult”) New in the 7th Edition Test Bank Whole-Genome Sequencing Module – 500 questions on variant calling, cgMLST, resistance genes (blaKPC, mcr-1) Rapid Diagnostics – BioFire FilmArray, Accelerate Pheno, Verigene, T2Dx Candida auris & XDR Pathogens – identification, reporting, IPC COVID-19 & Respiratory Panels – variant tracking, Ct values, antigen vs. NAAT Automation & Middleware – BD Kiestra, Copan WASPLab, Epic Beaker rules engine Faculty & Program Tools Bench OSCE Builder – drag chapters → auto-generate 10-station practical QC & Proficiency Dashboard – track E. coli ATCC 25922 zone ranges by student LMS-Ready – QTI for Canvas, Blackboard, ExamSoft, Moodle Randomized QC Strains – every exam gets unique MIC ±1 dilution Why Programs Trust Mahon & Lehman 99% MLS ASCP first-time pass rate (Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, ARUP data) Used by 1,100+ NAACLS programs Lifetime CLSI updates – free M100-S35, M47-S3, etc. Technical Specs Encrypted PDF + Respondus + ExamSoft + QTI 2.1 148 MB (zipped); full-text search, plate zoom Works offline; cloud sync for faculty analytics Instant download + 24/7 bench-tech support Who Needs This MLS/MLT students → ASCP BOC CLS residents → bench rotations Infection preventionists → outbreak drills Micro lab supervisors → competency training ID fellows → diagnostic reasoning Testimonials “The MALDI hotspot questions are spot-on. My students now read spectra like pros.” – Prof. Luis Ortega, MLS Program Director “I used the CRE case bank during my first outbreak. Reported KPC in <2 hrs.” – Jenna K., MT(ASCP) Free Bonuses ($199 value) Bench Workflow Checklist Pack (50 printable SOPs) 2,000 Anki cards (organism → test → ID → AST) Interactive Plate Gallery (downloadable for lab TVs) CLSI M100 Quick-Ref Wall Chart (PDF) Outbreak Epicure Template (Excel) See it.
