Riassunto

This volume explores the latest techniques used to study Mycobacterium ulcerans , and more specilly M. ulcerans disease (Buruli ulcer). The chapters in this book are organized into three parts and cover methods for the detection of M. ulcerans and the analysis of host-pathogen interaction; the quantition and characterization of mycolactone, the macrolide toxin of M. ulcerans ; and drug development against M. ulcerans . Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. 
Authoritative and cutting-edge, Mycobacterium ulcerans: Methods and Protocols is a valuable urce that helps scientists advance their research on Buruli ulcer, which is still an under-researched field in infection biology.
