Bacteriophages: methods and protocols v. 1 Isolation, characterization, and interactions

Ranging from the evolution of pathogenicity to oceanic carbon cycling, the many and varied roles that bacteriophages play in microbial ecology and evolution haveandnbsp;inspired increased interest within the scientific community. Bacteriophages: Methods and Protocols pulls together the vast body of knowledge and expertise from top international bacteriophage researchers to provide both classical and state-of-the-art molecular techniques. With its well-organized modular design, volume 1: Isolation, Characterization, and Interactions examines a multitude of topics, including the isolation of phages, morphological and molecular characterization, and interaction with bacteria. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, chapters consist ofbrief introductions to the subject, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and a Notes section which details tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Examines tried-and-true methods along with the most cutting-edge protocols Ideal for both professionals and newcomers due to convenient, easy-to-use style Designed for modular use, providing a potential wide array of techniques based on the combination of the methods described INDICE: From the contents Preface.
