The Immunoassay Handbook by David Wild
Provides a guide to the science, technology and applications of ELISA and other immunoassays, including a wealth of practical advice. This title encompasses a range of methods and gives an insight into the developments and applications in clinical and veterinary practice and in pharmaceutical and life science research.
"The beauty of this book is that it covers the whole field of immunoassay from reagents to method development, interferences and applications…The fourth edition does not disappointIt is an essential reference manual for staff using immunoassays and to students in the field of laboratory medicine and other science disciplines." --Annals of Clinical Biochemistry, November 2013 "The book starts out very basic with principles of immunoassays (‘immunoassays for beginners’) and builds progressively to discuss immunoassay components, configurations, development, implementation, product technology, applications other than clinical chemistry, and concludes with 23 chapters on clinical applications to human disease…This is the single ‘go-to’ book for any questions regarding immunoassays. If this is an area of interest for you, you must have this edition." --Doody.com, November 2013 "Editors Wild, John, Sheehan, Binder, and He present this handbook on the highly sensitive technique of immunoassay…Equations, figures, and real-world examples are used to clarify mechanisms and analysis. The range of detail makes it appropriate as both a pedagogical resource and a reference for immunology labs." --Reference and Research Book News, October 2013 "...it must be stated that there is much of value in the volume [2nd Ed.]. It is a useful and informative addition to any scientific library." --Robert F. Ritchie, Foundation for Blood Research, Scarborough, USA
