Reihe: Methods in Molecular Biology

This volume covers methods for determination of autoantibodies in rheumatic connective tissue diseases and organ-specific diseases. 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, Autoantibodies: Methods and Protocols aims to be helpful for all persons working with research and development of autoimmune laboratory diagnostics and for clinicians using autoantibody tests in daily work with patients.
