Molecular Detection of Human Parasitic Pathogens
Editat de Dongyou Liuen Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 iul 2012
The large number of original and modified molecular protocols that have been developed over the years creates a dilemma for those attempting to adopt the most appropriate protocol for streamlined identification and detection of human pathogenic organisms of interest. Part of a four-volume collection, Molecular Detection of Human Parasitic Pathogens provides a reliable and comprehensive resource on the molecular detection and identification of major human parasitic pathogens.
This volume contains expert contributions from international scientists involved in human parasitic pathogen research and diagnosis. Following a similar format throughout, each chapter includes:
- A brief review on the classification, biology, epidemiology, clinical features, and diagnosis of an important pathogenic parasitic genus/group
- An outline of clinical sample collection and preparation procedures and a selection of representative stepwise molecular protocols
- A discussion on further research needs relating to improved diagnoses of major human parasitic pathogens

Descriere
This volume examines parasites affecting humans with an emphasis on sample preparation and molecular detection procedures. Chapters consist of concise reviews of individual parasite genus/groups with respect to taxonomy, biology, epidemiology, and pathogenesis; a description of clinical sample collection preparation procedures; a summary of molecular detection methods available; and a discussion on the challenges, limitation, and advantages for the current methods. Written for practitioners and students, this textbook is a guide for future development of improved molecular methods for human parasitic pathogens.
