Across
  1. 1. Polymerase Chain Reaction. It results in the production of many identical copies of DNA or RNA molecules within hours.
  2. 3. MacConkey's Agar
  3. 5. Observation of microbe's microscopic and macroscopic morphology, physiology, and biochemical properties
  4. 7. Magnetic resonance imaging
  5. 8. Positron emission tomography
  6. 9. One genotypic method. A technique that makes it possibly to identify a microbe by analysing segments of its genetic material.
  7. 12. Analysis of microbe's DNA or RNA
  8. 13. The branch of immunology that traditionally deals with in vitro diagnostic testing of serum.
  9. 15. One immunologic method. Most common form is a lateral flow system, supplied in prepackaged cartridges that produce a colored stripe.
Down
  1. 1. One immunologic method. Smaller complexes of antibody-antigen.
  2. 2. Analysis of microbe using antibodies, or of patients' antibodies using prepackaged antigens.
  3. 4. One method of urine collection. It is invasive and is the leading cause of health acquired infections (UTIs).
