Immunochemical Protocols

This much anticipated second edition of the best selling Immunological Protocols provides a user-friendly, up-to-date handbook of reliable immunochemical techniques optimized for ready use by molecular biologists. It covers the breadth of relevant established methods-from protein blotting and immunoassays through the visualization of cellular antigens and in situ hybridization-each with their latest refinements. Protocols for the production and purification of important classes of immunochemical reagents are also provided, including "conventional" and recombinant antibodies, fusion proteins, and their various conjugates. The second edition of Immunochemical Protocols brings many previously specialized techniques within the grasp of all laboratory workers. It remains, like its predecessor, "an excellent laboratory manual and reference" and opens the door to the productive use of a new generation of immunochemical reagents with exciting possibilities.
