Pcr Detection Of Microbial Pathogens

By Konrad Sachse and Joachim Frey

Book Overview

The polymerase chain reaction has become an increasingly important tool in microbial diagnosis in recent years, mainly because of its rapidity, high sensitivity and specificity. This book provides microbiologists and biochemists with state-of-the-art protocols for the use of PCR-based identification and detection of important bacterial and other microbial pathogens. The chapters have been contributed by investigators well-conversant with PCR, who also offer practical expertize in the important area of pre-amplification processing. All microbiologists, biochemists and microbial researchers should find this to be a valuable reference for their PCR diagnosis of microbial pathogens.
