Immunology: Theoretical and Practical Concepts in Laboratory Medicine

- Student-oriented book, contains numerous original
illustrations, boxed information, and other informative features
These help clarify intricate concepts and mechanisms for the
student and make them more memorable.
- Inclusion of special immunologic techniques like flow
cytometry, HLA and tumor cell phenotyping and histocompatibility
testing, utilisation of DNA probes, DNA content analysis, cell
culture techniques, and cytotoxicity assays makes the book
current and a valuable resource for students and practitioners
who wish to update their knowledge.
- Consistent writing style and uniform presentation keeps the
reader focused and makes the text easier to follow and
understand.
