About the Book

For volume 1: A broad-ranging collection of core techniques for the study of HBV and HDV infections and for the development of therapies to treat them. In this first of two volumes Detection, Genotypes, and Characterization, the authors focus on readily reproducible molecular methods for the identification and quantification of viral markers, the detection and impact of viral variants, and the study of the viral life cycle. Each fully tested protocol is described in step-by-step detail by an established expert in the field and includes a background introduction outlining the principle underlying the technique, equipment and reagent lists, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. An accompanying second volume, Immunology, Model Systems, and Clinical Studies, contains user-friendly protocols for the study of host immune responses to infection, in vitro and in vivo models of infection, and the development of antivirals. For both volumes: A broad-ranging collection of core techniques for the study of HBV and HDV infections and for the development of therapies to treat them. The first volume Detection, Genotypes, and Characterization, the authors focus on readily reproducible molecular methods for the identification and quantification of viral markers, the detection and impact of viral variants, and the study of the viral life cycle. The second volume, Immunology, Model Systems, and Clinical Studies, contains user-friendly protocols for the study of host immune responses to infection, in vitro and in vivo models of infection, and the development of antivirals. Each fully tested protocol is described in step-by-step detail by an established expert in the field and includes a background introduction outlining the principle underlying the technique, equipment and reagent lists, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. The set offers both new and experienced investigators an encyclopedic collection of powerful tools for studying HBV and HDV infections, an essential resource for finding new therapies to treat chronically infected patients.

Review :
From the reviews: "Both volumes provide an excellent reference for background information and detailed experimental investigations for both Hepatitis B and Hepatitis D. A major attribute of the volumes is that as they cover a wide range of subjects, the reader has the opportunity to access information they would not normally encounter. Volumes 1 and 2 are an excellent reference source and the methodologies described present the opportunity for both new and experienced researchers to study the molecular aspects of HBV and HDV infection."-SGM Quarterly "...an excellent reference for background information and detailed experimental investigations for both Hepatitis B and Hepatitis D...." - Microbiology Today "The book is an extremely comprehensive collection of valuable modern protocols on detection of HBV DNA in serum and liver … . In summary, the general layout of the book is of excellent quality. Details are painstakingly provided so that sophisticated readers can profit from first hand top quality information derived from people who have personally worked at the bench. The substantial number of references will also allow easy access to the specific literature in the field." (M. Mondelli, Digestive and Liver Disease, Vol. 37, 2005)
