Summary

Written by leading experts in the field as part of an interdisciplinary pan-European research program funded by the EU, this book provides a unique and comprehensive overview of how microarray technology can be used in safely tracking the most highly dangerous pathogens. A must-have for public health agencies focused on bioterrorism as well as all laboratories working with BSL3 and/or BSL 4 agents.
