Advances in Lectin Research - v. 4

Overall, "Advances in Lectin Research" aims to reflect the rapid development of lectin research.

Main topics are lectins as tools in biochemistry, histochemistry, immunology and biotechnology, and their role in cell recognition, cell isolation and in target cell killing.

Furthermore, the participation of lectins in pathogenic mechanisms is discussed.

This particular volume publishes reviews written by experts in the field.

The reviews may be of interest not only to the "true lectinologist", but also to any scientist or technician in biology and medicine using lectins in research.

This monograph on immunology, oncology, natural product chemistry and biochemistry is intended for researchers, teachers, clinicians and the pharmaceutical industry.
