by: Faramarz Naeim MD publisher: Academic Press, published: 2008-12-03 ASIN: 0123706076 EAN: 9780123706072 sales rank: 389271 This comprehensive, full color hematopathology reference book emphasizes immunophenotpic features, cytogenetic studies, and diagnostic molecular aspects. Hematopathology begins with introductions to morphologic evaluation of the hematopoietic tissues and principles of immunophenotyping, cytogenetics and molecular studies followed by chapters dedicated to different types of hematologic disorders. Each chapter starts with a basic overview of hematopathlogy followed by a comprehensive review of immunophenotypic, cytogenetic and molecular findings. The text is balanced with large numbers of full color images, graphs, charts, and tables to assist the reader in understanding these highly technical issues. * Emphasizes the immunophenotopic features, cytogenetic studies, and diagnostic molecular aspects of hematology * Features a large number of images, charts and tables for the identification of hematologic disorders not only based on histopathologic features, but also with the use of advanced accessory techniques. |

publisher: Raven Pr, published: 1991-08 ASIN: 0881677744 EAN: 9780881677744 sales rank: 4359630 This manual has now been completely revised, expanded, and updated to cover the most advanced instrumentation and techniques. The second edition's expanded coverage includes three separate chapters on peripheral blood culture, continuous cell lines, and prenatal diagnosis and culture and new chapters on solid tumours, fragile sites, and molecular cytogenetics. The manual provides a survey of techniques for visualization and analysis of human chromosome patterns in diagnosis and research. More than 200 step-by-step protocols are presented at the most helpful points throughout the text. And the authors provide a variety of techniques so that the experienced technologist will have a choice but the novice will not be overwhelmed. Other useful features include almost 200 illustrations (14 in full colour), an index, and a new design that aims to make protocols and text easier to follow. |

publisher: Humana Press, published: 2003-11-04 ASIN: 1588290506 EAN: 9781588290502 sales rank: 2926846 Leading drosophilists describe in step-by-step detail all the essential techniques for studying Drosophila chromosomes and suggest new avenues for scientific exploration. The chapters emphasize specimen preparation (from dissection to mounting) and cover both polytene and mitotic/meiotic chromosomes in depth. Each fully tested and readily reproducible protocol offers a background introduction, equipment and reagent lists, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding pitfalls. A cutting-edge FISH and immunolocalization technique will be important for discovering how DNA sequence influences higher-order chromosome architecture and ultimately gene expression. |

by: Ram J. Singh publisher: CRC Press, published: 2002-12-20 ASIN: 0849323886 EAN: 9780849323881 sales rank: 2552855 Plant cytogenetics has progressed at a rapid rate since the publication of the first edition. Plant Cytogenetics, Second Edition presents an up-to-date review of cytogenetics. It covers the latest in the various classical and modern techniques in the handling of chromosomes, karyotype analysis, genetics of meiosis, genomic relationships, and chromosome manipulation. It includes new chapters on extra chromosomal inheritance and the mode of reproduction in plants, paricularly apomixis, as well as new sections on the molecular basis of heredity, genomic in situ hybridization, and the classical and molecular methods of genome analysis. The author also elaborates on the cytogenetic basis of somaclonal variation generated through cell and tissue culture. |

by: D. Roy publisher: Alpha Science Intl Ltd, published: 2009-09-25 ASIN: 1842655396 EAN: 9781842655399 sales rank: 7254580 Bioinformatics provides in depth coverage of the principles and applications of bioinformatic analyses of nucleic acid and protein sequences, databases and data mining. Dynamic programming algorithms of Needleman-Wunsch and Smith-Waterman, amino acid exchange matrices such as Dayhoff PAM series matrices and BLOSSUM series matrices and DOT matrix are discussed in detail along with pair-wise sequence alignment tools such as BLAST, FASTA and their variants, multiple sequence alignment tools such as CLUSTAL-W, CLUSTAL-X, SAGA, and progressive alignment and profile alignment. The book describes methods of detection and prediction of genes, ORFs, promoters, motifs, mRNA, tRNA, miRNA, their structure and function and protein structure and function using ab initio HMM and Neural Networks. Software programs like GeneID, Genescan, Genie, GeneModeler, GRAIL and GeneMARK for gene detection and visual mining tools available are discussed while Gene Ontology (GO) and use of sequence information for phylogenetic inferences are illustrated. |

publisher: Humana Press, published: 2003-03-10 ASIN: 1588290808 EAN: 9781588290809 sales rank: 3058143 A collection of key cytogenetic and FISH techniques used by modern clinical laboratories in the genetic analysis of human malignancies. The book's practical advice and methods are suitable for use at every level of expertise, including fully established laboratories, but with a sympathetic bias towards anyone considering setting up a new cytogenetics service. Here the reader will find not only elementary tutorials on the fundamentals of human karyotypes and chromosome analysis, but also detailed discussions on how laboratories may optimally upgrade their repertoire of capabilities to include such newer complementary techniques as CGH, FISH, and M-FISH. |

publisher: Oxford University Press, USA, published: 1992-08-27 ASIN: 0199632871 EAN: 9780199632879 sales rank: 4734585 The study of human chromosomes, at both the microscopic and molecular level, has helped characterize many genetic diseases. As understanding of the etiology and mechanisms of cytogenetic disorders continues to increase, more families at risk for these diseases may be given help through genetic counselling, accurate risk estimation, and prenatal diagnosis. This new edition of Human Cytogenetics: A Practical Approach serves as a fully comprehensive manual of established cytogenetic protocols together with relevant background information. Volume I concentrates entirely on laboratory techniques used in the study and diagnosis of non-malignant chromosome abnormalities. It is an invaluable compendium of basic information and more advanced specialist techniques in cytogenetics. |

publisher: S Karger Pub, published: 2008-04-30 ASIN: 3805585616 EAN: 9783805585613 sales rank: 4199007 This special topic issue on "Veterinary Cytogenetics" is dedicated to the Swedish scientist Ingemar Gustavsson, one of the pioneers of domestic animal cytogenetics, whose ground-breaking research has shaped this discipline for over 40 years. During his long and productive career he focused on chromosomes and their fundamental role in animal physiology, fertility, health and production in the context of agriculture and veterinary medicine, and he made important contributions to our understanding of mitosis, meiosis, chromosome integrity, and the transmission of chromosomal variation in domestic animals.This collection of reviews and original articles illustrates how the field of veterinary cytogenetics evolved from the study of the structure and number of chromosomes to modern molecular cytogenetics with its refined technology for research, diagnostic, prognostic or reproductive purposes. The goal of this publication is not to present an exhaustive volume covering each area of veterinary cytogenetics, but to give examples of specific subjects tackled by research groups working mainly in Europe and North America. |
