Culture of Human Stem Cells Hardcover - 2007 - 1st Edition

by R. Ian Freshney; Glyn N. Stacey; Jonathan M. Auerbach


From the publisher

This book collects 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 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.

The book includes a comprehensive list of suppliers for all equipment used in the protocols presented, with websites 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. This text is a one-stop resource for all researchers, clinical scientists, teachers, and students involved in this crucial area of study.
