Description

This is a conicise, practical guide to the technical and clinical aspects of immunoassays, a group of tests that take advantage of the antigen-antibody response to achieve diagnosis. The authors have consolidated in one text information that has been scattered throughout larger books on clinical chemistry. Intended for general pathologists and clinical chemists who perform these assays, Drs. Gosling and Basso and their contributors have combined their individual areas of expertise to provide a reference that explains the technical aspects of assays as well as the applications for these tests within the various medical specialities.
