This updated volume explores Candida and candidiasis methods, useful to a wide variety of Candida scientists including those new to the field. Beginning with a section on the Candida genome, the book continues by covering techniques for antifungal discovery and studying resistance, pathogenesis and virulence, communities, as well as immunity. Biofilm protocols are also featured. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and up-to-date, Candida Species: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition serves as an ideal guide for researchers working to further our understanding of this family of infective fungi.
