Book Description
Kelly P. Kearse and a panel of laboratory experts describe the step-by-step execution of a wide variety of basic and specialized techniques for the study of T cell developmental biology and of their subsequent activation. Readily reproducible, the techniques are explained concisely, but in such detail that they are suitable for both the novice and experienced investigator. Coverage includes treatment of both fundamental and novel experimental protocols for the analysis of the role T cells play in immune function and in the prevention and cure of human diseases. Practical and timely, T Cell Protocols: Development and Activation offers basic scientists and clinical investigators a valuable compendium of key protocols that will improve skills with existing methods, as well as afford rapid mastery of powerful new techniques.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“…The protocols themselves are highly detailed, and also refer to a notes section in each chapter which is used to impart tips and tricks which are usually essential to getting a technique to work well, but which do not often come over in the usual material and methods section of papers. Each of the chapters is also well referenced. The book would be invaluable for establishing a particular technique or set of techniques in an environment where there was little or no previous experience of such as as teaching aid for when new research staff or students come into a laboratory.”- The Journal of Infection
