Listeria monocytogenes is still a major threat to public health. A new book in the Methods in Molecular Biology series, Listeria monocytogenes: Methods and Protocols addresses its titular pathogen with protocols and methodologies used in research to gain a better understanding of Listeria at a molecular level. The topics covered include sampling in order to isolate Listeria, methods for their identification and characterization, methods for gene manipulation and finally, methods for control of the organism. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective subjects, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Vital and authoritative, Listeria monocytogenes: Methods and Protocols aims to contribute to the harmonization of the methods used in the field and will therefore benefit all those interested in Listeria research.

This  volume will be of interest to epidemiologists, food microbiologists, and anyone working on comparing bacterial isolates. Pulse Field Gel Electrophoresis: Methods and Protocols guides readers through methods and protocols that will advance the harmonisation of PFGE methodologies and facilitate inter-laboratory comparisons of PFGE profiles from pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria. As a volume in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters contain introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Concise and easy-to-use, Pulse Field Gel Electrophoresis: Methods and Protocols aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.

In the adrenaline fuelled world of competitive motorsport, Arthur Mangold takes the wheel of a Mazda MX-5, doing everything he can to keep up in a sport where he finds himself finishing last more often than not. He struggles to grapple with the tension between his passion and the pressures of those around him. Competition is one thing, but his biggest battle emanates from his own doubts and the blunt, unwavering expectations of his mother, Maddie, a former racer herself. When financial strain puts his championship dream at risk, a viral video of Arthur’s quirky, unfiltered commentary on the track propels him into the spotlight, opening unexpected doors. While he finds newfound popularity, there’s no escaping the harsh realities that come with such an environment, growing rivalries, the looming threat of failure, manipulation. As the walls begin to close in, Arthur must confront not only his driving abilities but his identity as a racer also. Everyone has a passion, a reason they do what they do, the thing they can’t imagine their life without. But sometimes, that purpose can get lost, leaving one question: What drives you?
