      abstract = {Fungal growths affect both human and animal well-being.  Many natural pathogens of laboratory animals alter host  physiology, rendering the host unsuitable for experimental  uses. While the number and prevalence of few pathogens have  declined considerably, many still turn up in laboratory  animals and represent unwanted variables in research.  Investigators using laboratory animals in biomedical  experimentation should be aware of the profound effects  that many of these agents can have on research. What does  the future hold regarding the natural pathogens of  laboratory animals? The selection of an animal model must  carefully address issues of the type of human disease to  mimic, the parameters to follow, and the collection of the  appropriate data to answer those questions being asked.  Overall, animal models of fungal infection will continue to  deepen our understanding of how these infections occur.  This book provides a valuable source of information to  biological and biomedical scientists and to clinical and  doctoral researchers working in the area of fungal  infections and diseases of laboratory animal species.},
