Produktbeschreibung
This book collects and focuses on commonly used and cutting-edge methods and protocols for culture of stem cells, making it useful as a textbook, and also keeping the length reasonable enough that many scientists will find the book an affordable introduction to the field of stem cell biology and culture, rather than having to turn to a large and comprehensive treatise available only through libraries.
The first book to collect the most effective and cutting-edge methods and protocols for deriving and culturing human embryonic and adult stem cells-in one handy resource This groundbreaking new book follows the tradition of previous books in the Culture of Specialized Cells series-each methods and protocols chapter is laid out exactly like the next, with stepwise protocols, preceded by specific requirements for that protocol, and a concise discussion of methods illustrated by data. The editors describe a limited number of representative techniques across a wide spectrum of stem cells from embryonic, newborn, and adult tissue, yielding an all-encompassing and versatile guide to the field of stem cell biology and culture. Culture of Human Stem Cells includes a comprehensive list of suppliers for all equipment used in the protocols presented, with Web sites available in an appendix. Additionally, there is a chapter on quality control, and other chapters covering legal and ethical issues, cryopreservation, and feeder layer culture. Culture of Human Stem Cells is a one-stop resource for all researchers, clinical scientists, teachers, and students involved in this crucial area of study.
