Handbook of Animal Models of Infection is a complete revision of a
three-volume text that was published in 1986. It incorporates the
major advances in the field during the past decade, in particular
those concerning molecular biological procedures and new models
that have been developed. It focuses on both methods and
techniques, which makes it an essential and comprehensive reference
as well as a benchtop manual. The Handbook will help investigators
save time and effort in formulating an approach to test a new
potential therapeutic agent or combination of agents for "in vivo"
efficacy and to position the therapy for specific infections where
it may have therapeutic promise. The book is divided into five
sections; the first covering the general methodologies, followed by
sections describing experimental bacterial, mycotic, parasitic, and
viral infections.
