Methodology of manual is illustrated to be easily followed by the technicians. A new technique for the isolation of fungi from clinical samples is described here that reduce the possibility of air borne lab contaminations. The lab contaminations are a big problem for determination of fungal pathogens, but this technique almost eliminate the possibility of lab contaminations.Scientific terms used for fungal descriptions are explained in Mycological Terminology section. Questions usually asked about the fungi are given in Frequently Asked Questions section. A sheet is provided to follow step-by-step identification of fungus in "Steps in fungal Identification (Sheet)". How to identify common Candida species by seeing color of Candida species on Chromagar and microscopic morphology is given for rapid identification in "Definitive Identification of Common Pathogenic Candida species on Chromagar and Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA)".
