| Publisher Description: This work is a practical guide to the use of immunofluorescence techniques for the rapid diagnosis of common human pathogens. With the widespread availability of monoclonal antibodies for a variety of human pathogens, diagnostic work formerly considered appropriate only for specialized laboratories is now within the province of any diagnostic laboratory. Immunofluorescence is particularly suitable for the prompt diagnosis of one-off samples, and in some cases, it is the most sensitive of the available immunoassays for diagnosing certain infections |
