Citation?

I am not entirely sure what the first citation is actually citing. I fixed it as it was an improper format; however it was a journal abstract and I was not sure of the relationship between the journal and the statement made in the article. A. Z. Colvin • Talk 03:04, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

This article is a mess!

Medical microbiology is a simple concept and has a simple explanation. The content of the article is confused and cannot manage to separate general microbiology from medical microbiology, the latter from Infectology (with clinics) and Epidemiology (with transmission routes)! General Microbiology/Medicine/Infectology/Epidemiology are not Medical microbiology. This needs an entire rewrite. This article is a jumble/heap of poorly referenced research and examples from a wide range of issues bordering with medical microbiology. Articles like this create many problems because students read them, accept them as fact, and then professors to spend hours trying to unteach this rubbish. GenOrl (talk) 01:04, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Easy to Read/Understand But Lacks Organization and Detail

This article could use a more proper and structural format based on the content given. The headings and categories are in no particular order and details are missing. The organizational structure of the topics could appear in an order that reflects the cycle/process of a medical biologist and/or a specific microorganism. Overall, this article is easy to understand and read but could use a different organizational style and be further detailed. Briar Perkely (talk) 01:20, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

see also section

would it make sense to have a see also section with:

1. List of human microbiota(Human microbiome)
2. Composition of the human body

As well as quite possibly Category:Blood tests, List of medical tests as these is where the results from clinical microbiology is typically used? Claes Lindhardt (talk) 21:12, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

@Claes Lindhardt definitely 👍 Aaron Isaac Ojulu (talk) 17:09, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
