Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of High-Resolution Electrophorsesis and Immunofixation 2e, there have been ever-increasing advances in the analyses of proteins, by electrophoresis in particular. Protein Electrophoresis in Clinical Diagnosis shows the changes in both techniques and interpretation, presenting a comprehensive review of serum protein techniques, immunofixation techniques, approaches to pattern interpretation, and pattern interpretation in both cerebralspinal fluid and urine. Conditions associated with Monoclunal Gammopathies are considered, as are the appropriate strategies for their detection. David Keren is well-known as the leader in this field, his work on guidelines becoming the benchmark for all those involved in protein detection in serum and urine. Dr Keren's book will be essential in every laboratory, and read by pathologists, chemical chemists, medical technicians and clinicians (particularly hematologists and oncologists).

Download or read book Basic Serological Testing written by Rowa Yousef Alhabbab and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses in detail various serological tests that are used to identify medical conditions and diseases, from a general overview of each test to the equipment and steps needed to carry them out. The book is aimed specifically at immunology students and professionals who may occasionally need to use these tests, and thus lack training and experience in performing them. The book provides a brief overview of the immune system, including antibodies, antigens, and their interactions. The bulk of the book is comprised of 16 chapters that each explain different serological tests. These chapters start with a general introduction of the test or disease being detected, followed by the test principle, reagents required for the test, procedures and steps to perform the test, and, finally, result interpretation. Both test principles and result interpretation segments include illustrations to aid comprehension. In addition, the book also enables the reader to distinguish between positive and negative results in serological testing.

Book excerpt: Proteins are the functional units of the cellular machinery and they provide significant information regarding the molecular basis of health and disease. Therefore, techniques to separate and isolate the various proteins are critical to studying and understanding their functional characteristics. One of the widely used techniques for this purpose is electrophoresis. In Protein Electrophoresis: Methods and Protocols, contributions from experts in the field have been collected in order to provide practical guidelines to this complex study. Each chapter outlines a specific electrophoretic variant in detail so that laboratory scientists may perform a technique new to their lab without difficulty. Written in the successful Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
