This Springer Protocols manual offers authoritative practical guidance on applying key techniques in molecular biology to microbiological research, focusing on experimental protocols with stepwise instructions that make for easy laboratory reproduction.
This Springer Protocols manual is a practical guide to the application of key molecular biology techniques in microbiological research. The focus is on experimental protocols, which are presented in an easy-to-follow way, as step-by-step procedures for direct use in the laboratory. Notes on how to successfully apply the procedures are included, as well as recommendations regarding materials and suppliers. In addition to the practical protocols, important background information and representative results of experiments using the described methods are presented. Researchers in all areas applying microbial systems, such as in molecular biology, genetics, pathology, and agricultural research will find this work of great value.

From the reviews:

"The Analyzing Microbes-Manual of Molecular Biology Techniques is indeed a practical guide to the application of various molecular biology techniques in general microbiological research, with special emphasis in/on biotechnology and environmental microbiology. ... All chapters are written in a concise step-by-step algorithm and are easy to follow during reading or bench working. ... In my opinion, the aim of this book ... to produce a self-contained laboratory manual which will be useful to both experienced practitioners and beginners in the field, is fully accomplished." (Ioan I. Ardelean, Romanian Journal of Biochemistry, Vol. 50 (1), 2013)
