Author: Haroun N. Shah (Editor), Saheer E. Gharbia (Editor) Full Title: MALDI-TOF And Tandem MS For Clinical Microbiology Publisher: Wiley; 1 edition (June 12, 2017) Year: 2017 ISBN-13: 9781118960257 (978-1-118-96025-7) ISBN-10: 1118960254 Pages: 648 Language: English Genre: Chemistry: Analytical Chemistry: Mass Spectrometry File type: PDF (True, but nonnative Cover) Quality: 9/10 Price: 144.00 € This book highlights the triumph of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry over the past decade and provides insight into new and expanding technologies through a comprehensive range of short chapters that enable the reader to gauge their current status and how they may progress over the next decade. This book serves as a platform to consolidate current strengths of the technology and highlight new frontiers in tandem MS/MS that are likely to eventually supersede MALDI-TOF MS. Chapters discuss: — Challenges of Identifying Mycobacterium to the Species level — Identification of Bacteroides and Other Clinically Relevant Anaerobes — Identification of Species in Mixed Microbial Populations — Detection of Resistance Mechanisms — Proteomics as a biomarker discovery and validation platform — Determination of Antimicrobial Resistance using Tandem Mass Spectrometry ------------- Our members see more.
