Phage Display Methods and Protocols

This second edition details new and updated methods on different antibody libraries, along with novel approaches for antibody discovery. Chapters focuses on the construction of antibody libraries, antibody expression, complementary approaches for antibody selection, and other phage display related applications. 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 key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Phage Display: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to be a useful and practical guide to new researchers and experts looking to expand their knowledge.
