Handbook of ELISPOT: Methods and Protocols by Paul V. Lehmann, Wenji Zhang (auth.), Alexander E. Kalyuzhny

By Paul V. Lehmann, Wenji Zhang (auth.), Alexander E. Kalyuzhny (eds.)

Enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT) has been identified for a while as a distinct cutting-edge procedure for learning the cytokine-secreting job of immune procedure cells, and it sounds as if to be one of many speedy turning out to be purposes in biomedical learn, changing into an vital software in vaccine improvement, HIV study, transplantation reviews, and melanoma and hypersensitivity examine. the second one version of Handbook of ELISPOT: equipment and Protocols, basically the second one publication within the box that is solely devoted to ELISPOT assay, stocks the unique innovations which were constructed because the unencumber of the preferred first variation. directly from the labs of professional specialists, this ebook covers surroundings and appearing ELISPOT assays, ELISPOT for veterinary learn, complex ELISPOT thoughts, photograph and information research, in addition to vaccine improvement and diagnostics. Written within the hugely winning Methods in Molecular Biology™ sequence layout, chapters contain introductions to their respective chapters, lists of the mandatory fabrics and reagents, step by step, effectively reproducible laboratory protocols, and pointers on troubleshooting and heading off identified pitfalls.

Authoritative and state-of-the-art, Handbook of ELISPOT: tools and Protocols, moment Edition serves as a compilation of a technical reference and a troubleshooting consultant for researchers, either skilled and beginner, all over the world so one can increase the use of this key tool.
