Description:
Molecular Mycobacteriology thoroughly examines techniques such as RNA isolation from mycobacteria ... in situ hybridization with nocardial cells ... paraffin slide culture technology for isolating and identifying Mycobacterium avium complex organisms ... safe handling of organisms in genetic analysis ... DNA fingerprinting, or restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis ... element-polymerase chain reaction methods for subtyping strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ... pulsed field gel electrophoresis ... mycobacterial shuttle vectors ... and gene expression and recombination of mycobacterium ... and more. Written by over 20 world-renowned contributors, Molecular Mycobacteriology is sure to be a standard reference work for years to come for mycobacteriologists, general and clinical microbiologists, molecular biologists, infectious disease specialists, biochemists, pathologists, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
