Book description
New advances in proteomics, driven largely by developments in mass
spectrometry, continue to reveal the complexity and diversity of
pathogenic mechanisms among microbes that underpin infectious diseases.
Therefore a new era in medical microbiology is demanding a rapid
transition from current procedures to high throughput analytical systems
for the diagnosis of microbial pathogens.
This book covers the broad microbiological applications of proteomics
and mass spectrometry. It is divided into six sections that follow the
general progression in which most microbiology laboratories are
approaching the subject -Transition, Tools, Preparation, Profiling by
Patterns, Target Proteins, and Data Analysis.
