Description:
This book will explore some key opportunities in the context of animal health, such as the detection of new microorganisms and development of improved diagnosis of emerging or re-emerging diseases and other clinical conditions viz. biosensors, nanotools and omics technologies.
Review Quotes:
"In this multi-authored text, contributing experts offer a broad overview of the most modern technologies--primarily molecular in scale but including an array of innovative microscopic and scanning techniques--for the detection and identification of infectious-disease organisms. In considering these novel diagnostic methods, authors generally emphasize overall utility and performance characteristics, notably sensitivity/specificity, accuracy/precision, rapidity, affordability, and ease of use. They also consider the direction of future efforts with respect to selected animal diseases. As shown in these pages, widespread application of modern technology has greatly changed the nature of animal disease diagnosis. This volume will be of considerable value to virologists, bacteriologists, molecular biologists, and others working in diagnostic facilities."
