In this second edition of a much-acclaimed classic laboratory manual, Molecular Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases, leading experts from academia and industry describe cutting-edge methods for the protein-based diagnosis of infectious diseases. Explaining the latest developments in genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, biosensors, high-throughput devices, and recombinant technology, the authors demonstrate the power of these new methodologies in both established and novel procedures by applying them successfully to the identification and characterization of valuable diagnostic markers, immunomodulatory components, epitope mapping, the production and purification of recombinant antigens, and their use in diagnostic reagents in immunological assays. Basic problems of serological laboratory diagnostics and the use of immunoproteomics for discovering target proteins are also addressed. Each readily reproducible protocol is described in step-by-step detail and includes a background introduction, equipment and reagent lists, tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls, and extensive references. Comprehensive and up-to-date, Molecular Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases, Second Edition offers novice investigators an easy entry into the field and experienced researchers a broad array of time saving tools that will not only elucidate new principles, but also greatly facilitate the development and successful application of rapid diagnostic methods.
