More DescriptionThe study of the pathogenesis of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli infection encompasses many different disciplines including clinical microbiology, diagnostics, animal ecology, and food safety as well as the cellular microbiology of bacterial pathogenesis and the mechanisms of toxin action. E coli: Shigh Toxin Methods and Protocols brings together a number of experts from each of these varied fields to outline some of the basic protocols for the diagnosis and study STEC pathogenesis. This book is a valuable resource for both the clinical microbiologist as well as the cellular microbiologist. For the clinical microbiologist, it outlines a number of current protocols for the detection of STEC in patient samples, each of which have their own advantages. For the cellular microbiologist, this volume outlines different protocols that are useful in studying the varied aspects of STEC pathogenesis
