Practical Cell Analysis

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Practical Cell Analysis serves as a guide for researchers interested in adding cell analyses to their repertoire. This book covers the basics of setting up a cell culture-capable laboratory, as well as sources and types of cells. In addition, the book also discusses the procedures for cell separation, handling cells on a microscope, and using cells in microfluidic devices. Cell viability, probe toxicity, apoptosis, cell storage, and other practical stumbling blocks are also discussed. Each chapter features useful tables such as common cell fluorescence probes and separation methods/protocols.
