Tips for Microbiology and Immunology

MRS Microbiology is quite good. But it does not have a discussion on Immunology. BRS Micro has a chapter in Immuno, also the UPEC Study has a discussion in Immuno.
They asked a lot of antimicrobials. Special mention is the structure. Example, which of the following drugs has an 6-aminopenicillin nucleus? Know also the active and passive vaccination. They asked about the dosage and route of administration for severe diphtheria (Choices 50,000IM 50,000IV or 100,000IM)
They asked a lot of incubation period. So, while studying, it is advisable to take notes of the incubation period. Example, incubation period of leptospirosis, typhoid, dengue, polio.
They would ask stupid questions such as Who was the first to be infected by smallpox (yeah, even the extinct viruses) (Choices Ramses, Moses, Henry VIII). The answer was found in Zinsser (Answer: Ramses)
