Medical virology has undergone a revolution of diagnostic and scientific approaches through the advent of molecular biological techniques. This is reflected in the topics collected in this volume, which present classical and molecular techniques currently used in medical virology for the diagnosis of virus infections and for the further analysis of virus-specific antibodies and clinical virus isolates.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is a very useful and up-to-date book for medical virologists and microbiologists.It combines a mixture of conventional and molecular techniques for viral analysis and applies these to practical use in diverse medical settings. The book helps fill the gap for true procedural laboratory workbooks and provides interpretation, application, and limitations of the procedures used in the changing field of medical virology."--Doody's Journal
