Reihe: Methods in Molecular Biology

This detailed volume provides the increasing number of SARS-CoV-2 researchers with a useful handbook covering multidisciplinary approaches on various aspects of SARS-CoV-2 research, brought together by leading laboratories across the globe. Topics covered include techniques in clinical and diagnostic virology, basic protocols in cell and virus culture, as well as bioinformatics and proteomics approaches in cellular response studies. This comprehensive collection also covers methods in immunology, animal models, antivirals and vaccine development strategies, as well as biorisk and mitigation measurements for SARS-CoV-2 research. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include the kind of detailed implementation advice that is vital for success in the lab. 
Practical and timely, SARS-CoV-2: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal guide for scientists investigating this prevalent and perilous RNA virus and thenovel coronavirus disease that results from it.
