The Handbook of Immunoassay Technologies, Second Edition, details key advancements in immunoassays and outlines analytical testing principles across the biochemical sciences. Published by Academic Press, this handbook provides structured bioanalytical background information to support students and researchers working in immunology, biochemistry, and medicine.

The thematic scope encompasses diagnostic methodologies engineered for diverse clinical testing environments. Detailed chapters examine immunoassay architectures for newborn screening alongside viral immunodiagnostics focused on target pathogens including SARS-CoV-2, HIV, Ebola, and Hepatitis C. Furthermore, the text addresses specialized analytical frameworks designed for detecting botulism neurotoxins of Clostridia and biological warfare agents.

Highlighting recent technical updates, this second edition introduces expanded coverage on antibody production for immunodiagnostics, multiplex immunoassays, and chemiluminescent immunoassays. The volume delivers structured reference material for healthcare professionals, biomedical engineering teams, and clinical laboratory researchers seeking to analyze, evaluate, and compare both established and emerging assay formats across modern diagnostic environments.
