MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Allergy: Methods and Protocols aims to assist the researcher in gaining insight into the molecular mechanisms involved in allergy by featuring an array of protocols. The protocols cover a range of disciplines including allergy, immunology, cell biology, and histology, and include methods to investigate the cellular response to allergens, cytokine profile, MHC restriction, and T regulatory cells.
