John R. Crowther provides today's premier practical guide to the understanding and application of ELISA. Updating and greatly expanding his widely appreciated earlier publication, ELISA Theory and Practice (1995), this important work introduces chapters on such major new topics as checkerboard titrations, quality control of testing, kit production and control, novel monoclonal antibodies, validation of assays, statistical requirements for data examination, and epidemiological considerations. With its numerous worked examples, detailed instructions, and extensive illustrations, The ELISA Guidebook offers a powerful synthesis of all the basic concepts and practical experimental details investigators need to understand, develop, and apply the new ELISA methodology successfully in day-to-day basic and clinical research. welcome to booko.org
Summary: Good but annoying
Rating: 3
I'm not one for writing reviews but I just had to write this. This book does have useful info but it is horribly written and badly edited. Definitions and explanations on topics are given pages after their introduced. Tables and figures are horribly labeled, if labeled at all. Example I'm currently on pg 226 and table 17 is completely wrong, read the description of the experiment. Another example pages 221 and 222 have identical figures but only one is labeled correctly, page 218 an equation is given which is completely wrong, try it. There are even missing figures. This has got to be one of the most annoying and frustrating texts I have ever read.
