Riassunto

This book provides a concise set of protocols for assessing basic neutrophil functions, investigating specialized areas in neutrophil research, and completing step-by-step diagnostic assays of common neutrophil disorders. Each of the protocols is written by leading researchers in the field and includes hints for success, as well as guidance for troubleshooting. Scientists and clinicians will find this collection an invaluable aid.

Recensione

From the reviews:

"...a carefully compiled collection of protocols that allow for study of many aspects of the neutrophil." -Doody's Book Review, Weighted Numerical Score:85-3 Stars

"This excellent book is one of the latest in the ‘Methods in Molecular Biology’ series ... . it comes beautifully presented and bound in a hardback cover and would grace any bookshelf. I would urge all self-respecting laboratories working with neutrophils – whether in research or diagnostics – to purchase one immediately. ... I was impressed by this book’s comprehensive provision of protocols, addressing all aspects of neutrophil function and physiology, and including an excellent section on diagnosis of both inherited and non-inherited neutrophil disorders." (Lynn Morgan, Immunology News, May, 2008)
