โฆ Synopsis
Johnson Lau and his expert collaborators present cutting-edge techniques for study of the hepatitis C virus, a disease afflicting over 100 million people worldwide. The methods range from the detection of anti-HCV in serum and HCV in liver tissue to HCV genotypes and the detection and quantification of HCV in serum. In addition to these key protocols, the authoritative contributors also evaluate recombinant proteins in immunological test systems, including the identification of important antigenic epitopes, antibodies, and recombinant antigens. The methods and systems detailed in this book will play a key role in the development of more effective antivirals, in the introduction of vaccines, and in a deeper understanding of viral replication strategies, viron structure, and the mechanisms of viron assembly and release.
