From the reviews:“Provides detailed step-by-step protocols for a wide variety of techniques related to microbial toxin detection and characterization. The protocols are easy to follow and are very well supported by key references … extensive explanatory notes and troubleshooting advice. … most of them could be readily modified for your favourite microbe or target of choice. In this case the book will be a helpful reference for those wishing to introduce these or related methods to their laboratory. … this book is most suitable for institutional purchase.” (Gavin Paterson, Microbiology Today, February, 2012)
