Opis

"Immunoassays in Food and Agriculture" is a comprehensive and up-to-date reference text on the use of immunochemistry in a wide variety of applications in the agricultural and environmental sciences, such as how to identify pathogens, food additives and contaminants. It begins with a concise and easy-to-understand overview of those principles of immunology appropriate to the rest of the book. The core of the book is then made up of practically oriented chapters that deal with the application of immunochemistry in animal and plant husbandry, in the analysis of foodstuffs, and in selected aspects of the environmental sciences. Experimental protocols are given where appropriate. It will be an ideal reference tool for laboratory scientists as well as an introductory text for students and teachers.
