"...this book lives up to its promises. It starts with an excellent introduction by Hennie Hoogenboom, reprinted from his Immunotechnology article, which sets the scene and provides an overview of the field for new readers...Members of the laboratory that used the book for reference found it very clear and all were keen that the review was completed as quickly as possible so that the book was returned to the laboratory where they could make use of it! I think this in itself supports the fact that the book is a useful volume." - Immunology News "As with other volumes in this popular series, each protocol is discussed in detail, including an introduction, materials, methods notes, and references. It is a good purchase for research libraries where monoclonal antibodies are studied." E-Streams
