This volume provides a comprehensive outline of the current methods used to detect, characterize, and investigate Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) and Shiga toxins. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, 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 cutting-edge, Shiga Toxin-Producing E. coli: Methods and Protocols aims to be a valuable resource for clinicians, epidemiologists, and researchers interested in STEC pathogenesis.
