In recent years, molecular techniques have enhanced our ability to
detect sexually transmitted infections and to conduct research to
further our und- standing of sexually transmitted diseases.
Molecular methods to quantitate pathogen load have also been shown
to be useful for the management of HIV and other viral STDs.
Existing laboratory manuals for the clinical microbi- ogy
laboratory often do not include molecular methods for STDs.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases: Methods and Protocols is intended to
fill the need for a dedicated manual that covers all the
fundamental aspects of molecular pro- cols for laboratory
diagnosis, as well as research methodology for STDs, - cluding HIV.
There are more than types of molecular techniques described in this
book covering nine major sexually transmitted pathogens. Although
mole- lar methods for the detection of such pathogens as
Trichomonas vaginalis are available in the published literature,
they have not been included since they are not yet widely used for
laboratory diagnosis or research. Sexually Transmitted Diseases:
Methods and Protocols is one of a series of books treating Methods
Molecular Medicine, published by Humana Press.
