The Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay Elisa A Review Of Recent Developments With Abstracts Of Microplate Applications 2 1980

First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.

Recent advances in biotechnology are changing the study and practice of diagnostic medicine, and have lead to a revival of interest in alternative immunoassays. This situation is mainly due to the advent of monoclonal antibodies, and the use of alternative labels to monitor the reactions. Many laboratory tests are now more efficient than in the past, and others can be carried out in extra-laboratory locations (e.g. the outpatient clinic, ward or home) thus making the subject of greater value to clinicians and practitioners.

Techniques in Diagnostic Pathology is a new series aimed at clinical and research pathologists which describes and critically evaluates a wide range of methods used in diagnostic pathology. Detailing essential steps and procedures not usually in primary reference material, the series encompasses well established methods as well as newer molecular techniques in such a way as to encourage their use in routine laboratory diagnosis. Volume 2 focuses on enzyme linked immunosorbent assays and details a range of techniques ELISA for antibody detection in infectious and autoimmune diseases ELISA for microbial antigen detection ELISA for antigen detection in cancer, degenerative diseases and environmental health Quantification of DNA/RNA hybridization products using ELISA ELISA for simultaneous detection of microbial antigen and microbial DNA Clinical immunologists, microbiologists, pathologists, and molecular biologistswill find this volume a valuable benchtop guide.
