Metodologie biochimiche e biomolecolari permette di acquisire la padronanza dei principali metodi usati nei laboratori per l'a

This is a quick reference guide to the selection and interpretation of more than 450 commonly used diagnostic tests. It covers: basic principles of diagnostic testing, common blood, urine and cerebrospinal fluid laboratory tests, therapeutic drug monitoring, microbiologic test selection and interpretation and diagnostic imaging tests by body system, electrocardiography, and differential diagnosis tables & algorithms; and tests used in internal medicine, pediatrics, surgery, neurology and obstetrics and gynecology. It includes: costs and risks of diagnostic tests; evidence-based information; diseases associated with abnormal test results, including test sensitivities; full literature citations with PubMed (PMID) numbers included for each reference; more than 24 NEW clinical laboratory test entries, 6 NEW differential diagnosis tables; 5 NEW diagnostic algorithms; and, NEW sections on point-of-care testing, provider-performed microscopy, pharmacogenetic testing, and diagnostic echocardiography.

Among animals used in research, teaching and testing, mice are now widely recognized as the most important model for human diseases and disorders. They comprise the majority of all experimental mammals and tend to be the model of choice used for research into many diseases/disorders including cancer, heart disease, asthma, Alzheimer's, Down syndrome, deafness, osteoporosis, obesity, diabetes and even mental health research. Additionally the laboratory mouse continues to play a widely publicized vital role in the human genome project. One of the most time-consuming activities in research laboratories is looking up information specific to the species or strain of animal being used. This book, part of the highly successful "Handbook of Experimental Animals" series, allows the user quick access to any point of interest on the mouse as an experimental model. It is edited by Hans Hedrich, Hannover Medical School. It is a comprehensive reference source written by international experts. It is well-illustrated with high quality detailed images. It features a two-color, user-friendly format combined with color plate sections.

Con questo volume la Sltl (Società Italiana di Igiene, Medicina Preventiva e Sanità Pubblica) vuole contribuire a dare la massima diffusione, fra i soci e fra tutti coloro che operano nel campo della Sanità pubblica, alle possibilità di applicazione delle moderne tecniche di laboratorio a sostegno delle indagini epidemiologiche e degli interventi di prevenzione. Negli ultimi anni, infatti, le metodologie biologiche-molecolari si sono imposte come strumento di indiscutibile importanza sia in campo diagnostico che nella ricerca scientifica.
