About this title

From the Back Cover

Established for almost 30 years, Methods in Microbiology is the most prestigious series devoted to techniques and methodology in the field. Now totally revamped, revitalised, with a new format and expanded scope, Methods in Microbiology will continue to provide you with tried and tested, cutting edge protocols to directly benefit your research.

Bacterial Pathogenesis, edited by recognised experts in the field, presents the most appropriate, up-to-date techniques in the detail you require. The layout is structured for ease of reference, and the volume will be essential reading for all researchers working in immunology of infectious diseases and plant pathogenicity.

This new volume provides a carefully selected collection of techniques for the microbiologist wishing to study the interactions between bacteria and their targets, whether human, animal or plant. A multi-author book, it has succeeded in bringing together experts from various fields of molecular biology who provide technical approaches and recipes for the analysis of host-pathogen interactions.
