Join 18 year-old Nika Prysbliski on an international "road trip" and a journey of personal growth that takes her from the damp confines of Gdansk, Poland to the boundless opportunities, and pitfalls, of America. Walk in her shoes as she creates light and meaning from darkness and ignorance. Nika's story is the retelling of the universal tales of good versus evil, light versus darkness, and ignorance verses enlightenment...threshed out by a confused, but genuine, young woman of deep and abiding faith.

Immunochemistry of Solid-Phase Immunoassay fills a niche in the field of immunoassay and immunology. Although solid-phase immunoassay constitutes a major technology in biology and medicine, there is no comprehensive source devoted to the immunochemical principles involved. As a result, this book will benefit students, technicians, and researchers who use this technology, as well as immunodiagnostic and biotech companies who develop the technology. The book is not a methods manual; instead, it incorporates the concepts, data, and opinions of more than 25 investigators working in this field. Topics discussed include: the chemistry of solid-phases, the behavior or antibodies and antigens on solid phases, membrane solid-phases, reaction kinetics, antigen quantitation, enzyme systems, photophysics, immunochemical considerations in data analyses, multianalyte assays and occupancy concepts, antibody quantitation, streptavidin, a review of data analysis software, and solid-phase peptide immunoassay.
