Microbial 'Omics: Methods and Protocols (en Inglés) - Huang, Tao

This volume helps readers navigate the entire microbial omics research pipeline from sample collection to data interpretation, and from foundational protocols to cutting-edge applications, with the goal of unifying traditional experimental methods with modern computational tools and emerging technologies. The chapters in this book are organized into five parts. Part One (Foundational Overview) provides a historical context for microbial omics and outlines key methods. Part Two (Core Experimental Methods) focuses on standardized experimental protocols of microbial omics research. Part Three (Data Analysis Tools) covers computational tools that transform processed data into meaningful insights. Part Four (Applied Omics: From Health to Industry) discusses the broad applicability of microbial omics, and Part Five (Cutting-Edge Technologies: AI and Virology) explores the integration of AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) in virology. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Comprehensive and thorough, Microbial Omics: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for both novice and expert researchers looking to expand their knowledge of microbial omics. This book will inspire new discoveries and advance the field for the benefit of humanity and the planet.
