Produktbeschreibung

Thisvolume covers multidisciplinary approaches on various aspects of ChikungunyaVirus (CHIKV) research that was brought together from leading laboratoriesacross the globe. Topics covered include techniques in clinical and diagnosticvirology, basic protocols in cell and virus culture, bioinformatics, andproteomics approaches in cellular response studies. Chikungunya Virus:Methods and Protocols also discusses methods in immunology and animal modelstudies, as well as different strategies of antivirals and vaccine developmentfor therapeutics against CHIKV infection. Written in the highly successful Methodsin Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to theirrespective topics, lists of the necessary material and reagents, step-by-step,readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoidingknown pitfalls.

Thorough and practical, Chikungunya Virus: Methods and Protocols is auseful and comprehensive resource for CHIKV researchers and anyone interestedin learning more about the Chikungunya Virus.
