Helicobacter pylori Protocols

In Helicobacter pylori Protocols, leading experts bring together an outstanding collection state-of-the-art protocols for the identification and molecular manipulation of H. pylori. The authoritative contributors supply detailed and readily reproducible protocols for culturing H. pylori, for the isolation and restriction endonuclease digestion of H. pylori chromosomal DNA, and for the transformation and insertional mutagenesis of H. pylori. They also provide molecular epidemiological techniques, including ribotyping, PCR-RFLP, and RAPD-PCR. These procedures have been developed to solve the difficult technical problems created by the application of today's powerful bacterial genetic and molecular cloning techniques to H. pylori. §Helicobacter pylori Protocols contains a wide variety of stand-alone techniques that are unfailingly reproducible. The book is certain to become a standard experimental and clinical laboratory reference for all those engaged in H. pylori work today.
