The 3rd edition is a comprehensive, readable, student-friendly text featuring revised content and new, up-to-date information. The first two sections of the book provide foundation knowledge and skills that progress from basic immunologic mechanisms and serologic concepts, to the theory of laboratory procedures such as automated techniques. The final two sections emphasize medical applications that are relevant to clinical laboratory science, addressing representative disorders of infectious and immunologic origin as well as topics such as transplantation and tumor immunology. Each chapter begins with an outline and learning objectives, ending with a summary, review questions, and a bibliography. Most chapters also contain case studies and procedures that challenge readers to apply their knowledge to real-life situations. 0 aRB46.5b.B79 1986  aQW 525 B915L0 a616.07/561219 0aSerologyxTechnique.2Local 2aSerologyxlaboratory manuals.2Local 2aAllergy and Immunologyxlaboratory manuals.2Local 0aImmuno diagnosis.2Local
