VIROLOGY NOTES

VIROLOGY NOTES – A QUALITY STUDY NOTES OF VIROLOGY

Virology is the branch of microbiology that deals with the study of Viruses and viral diseases, the most controversial microorganism that whether it is living or non-living, serves as a fine line between the living and non-living world. Viruses are most commonly associated with various pathologies and do not provide any benefits to the mankind. In this section, you will get the study notes on all the topics of virology with detailed and illustrative explanations which are quite easy to understand. Here you will get the study notes on various topics from the basics like the introduction of viruses, its classification, Cultivation techniques as viruses are quite difficult to cultivate in the laboratory to the systematic classification of Viruses where you will study about every single virus with detailed and illustrative explanation and if you got stuck anywhere or have any queries about any topic contact us here and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
