Produktbeschreibung

Medical Mycology: Cellular and Molecular techniques is a clear and concise overview of the subject that details the techniques essential for ongoing research in the area. Drawing together contributions from both scientists and clinicians working in the field, the text will provide a valuable perspective on the applicability of specific techniques to patient care. A wide range of molecular, immunological and cytological techniques are discussed throughout, with the inclusion of protocol section in each chapter designed to provide both a background a up-to-date account of the applications of each procedure. Every technique is fully referenced and illustrations are provided where required to enhance student understanding. * comprehensive introduction to the key techniques critical to the study of medical mycology * clear explanation of how each technique is applied in the lab * contributions from internationally recognised experts in the field * outlines the background to many techniques required for the successful completion of a research project An invaluable reference for students of microbiology, biochemistry and molecular biology as well as postgraduates and researchers in the field of medical mycology looking for an up-to-date overview of the latest laboratory techniques.

Rezensionen

"Das Buch fasst kompakt und im Sinne einer detaillierten und kommentierten Arbeitsanleitung ein breites Spektrum essentieller und aktueller Methoden für die Wissenschaft zusammen?. Ein weiterer Bonus ist das sehr umfangreiche Literaturverzeichnis nach jedem Kapitel und die hohe Aktualität aller Beiträge, die den Stand bei Drucklegung wiedergeben. Insgesamt ist das Buch zum Einstieg in die mykologische Forschung und als methodisches Nachschlagewerk im Labor sehr gut geeignet."
