Despite major advances in HIV treatment, many areas require more study, in order
to create efficacious, potent antiretrovirals that can suppress viral load completely
and durably without toxic side effects, to define unknown drug targets and fine-tune
known targets, and to better understand the interplay between viral and host factors.
In HIV Protocols, Second Edition, expert researchers provide clear, state-of-the-art
methods for the study of HIV. Directed toward three specific goals, this text aims
to document up-to-date protocols for select aspects of HIV biology, to bring together
both virological and immunological approaches in a single, convenient volume, and to
present a comprehensive account of a range of techniques not available in any existing
HIV protocol book. As a volume in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology.
series, the chapters include brief introductions to the subject, lists of the necessary
materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and
Notes sections containing priceless tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Comprehensive and cutting-edge, HIV Protocols, Second Edition is an ideal guide to
the wide array of techniques used in fundamental or applied research into the biology
and pathogenesis of HIV-1.
