publisher: Wiley-Liss, published: 2000-05-08 ASIN: 0471315753 EAN: 9780471315759 sales rank: 3738096 The resurgence of interest in high-resolution evaluation of single-cell properties has led to examining where current technology stands at the beginning of a new millennium. Engineers and scientists have produced significant advances in cytometric technologies in just the past few years. Emerging Tools for Single-Cell Analysis: Advances in Optical Measurement Technologies stresses the applications and theories behind some of these advances in cell measurement and cell- sorting technologies. Rapid assessment of the proper function of cells and molecular processes within cells is essential. To that end, new and varying technologies present important diagnostic and prognostic tools relevant to a variety of diseases. Future developments in miniaturization of electronics, micro- and nanomachines, and biomedical engineering are certain to impact cell biology. New analytical technologies are revolutionizing our ability to functionally characterize, isolate, and manipulate single cells. This timely book offers researchers and design engineers much-needed information as they further develop technologies for cell analysis. By comparing and contrasting various approaches, the authors explain how those technologies converge toward similar goals: evaluating the properties of cells and sorting cells on those properties using optically-based measurement systems. Emerging Tools for Single-Cell Analysis offers scientists and engineers a vision of the exciting possibilities that exist as new technologies are applied to single-cell analysis, |

by: John L. Carey et al publisher: American Society for Clinical Pathology, published: 2007-10-08 ASIN: 0891895485 EAN: 9780891895480 sales rank: 452706 The new edition of 'Flow Cytometry in Clinical Diagnosis' promises a completely current overview of this increasingly commonplace technology. With every chapter either completely reworked or significantly updated to include the latest developments and new contributions from 10 new international authorities, this will be the go-to resource on clinical flow cytometry for years to come. More than that it promises to deliver a uniquely engaging learning experience with a bonus CD filled with real-world cases and interpretations. Drs. Carey and McCoy bring the new edition of 'Flow Cytometry in Clinical Diagnosis' alive with the bonus CD, which inlcudes data from actual flow analysis and patient samples for 39 cases. You'll receive a limited license to a site where you can analyze list mode data from real cases, evaluate the data and clinical information, and compare your analysis and interpretation with that of the case author. |

publisher: Cambridge University Press, published: 2010-12-13 ASIN: 0521111218 EAN: 9780521111218 sales rank: 1214937 The diagnosis and monitoring of hematological malignancies is complex and requires a systematic approach. Morphology, cell phenotyping, cytogenetics and molecular genetics are essential, and the results must be integrated. Diagnostic Techniques in Hematological Malignancies details the principles and applications of each of these test types in the diagnosis of hematological malignancies in blood and bone marrow. The first section describes the test modalities - including methodological principles, data interpretation and limitations - and is illustrated by clinical examples. The second section focuses on the clinical entities, detailing the most appropriate tests for diagnosis, staging and monitoring of different hematological malignancies and includes test utilization to identify prognostic markers and potential therapeutic targets. With contributions from multiple international experts, this illustrated book is an essential resource for qualified and trainee hematologists, oncologists, and pathologists. It's a practical and useful guide, providing a rational and structured approach to the laboratory assessment of hematological malignancies. |

by: Meike S. Andersson publisher: The Johns Hopkins University Press, published: 2009-12-16 ASIN: 0801893143 EAN: 9780801893148 sales rank: 1750628 This comprehensive volume provides the scientific basis for assessing the likelihood of gene flow between twenty important crops and their wild relatives. The crops discussed include both major staples and minor crops that are nonetheless critical to food security, including barley, corn, cotton, cowpea, wheat, pearl millet, and rice. Each chapter is devoted to one of the crops and details crop-specific information as well as relevant factors for assessing the probability of gene flow. The crop-specific reviews provide insights into the possible ecological implications of gene escape. For each crop, a full-color world map shows the modeled distributions of crops and wild relatives. These maps offer readers, at a glance, a means of evaluating areas of possible gene flow. The authors classify the areas of overlap into three "gene-flow categories" with respect to the possibility of genetic exchange. The systematic, unbiased findings provided here will promote well-informed decision making and the conservation of wild relatives of crops. This book is particularly relevant to agriculture in developing countries, where most crop biodiversity is found and where current knowledge on biodiversity conservation is limited. Given the ecological concerns associated with genetically modified crops, this reference is an essential tool for everyone working to feed a growing world population while preserving crop biodiversity.

publisher: Wiley-Liss, published: 2000-04-15 ASIN: 0471239577 EAN: 9780471239574 sales rank: 1482102 Immunophenotyping Edited by Carleton C. Stewart and Janet K. A. Nicholson In the last twenty years there has been an explosion of immunophenotyping applications using flow cytometry in the clinical laboratory. Immunophenotyping offers essential information for clinicians and laboratorians about the uses of flow cytometers, identifying abnormalities in a variety of disorders, tools of immunophenotyping, assessing platelets in disease states, and much more. This second volume in the new series, Cytometric Cellular Analysis, comprises all cytometric methods currently used to study cellular function through reviews of the principles, theoretical background, and applications of these methods with particular reference to their use in clinical laboratories. Cellular analytical technologies have revolutionized our ability to identify, isolate, and functionally characterize single cells. This volume addresses one of the most important aspects of flow cytometry as it applies to the clinical setting. In addition, this comprehensive book: * Discusses methods used for quality controlling immunophenotyping trials * Reviews various approaches to the use of flow cytometers to quantify fluorescence * Explains how cell surface receptors differentiate between normal and abnormal tissues for diseases including lymphoma, leukemia, and AIDS * Describes a new, sensitive flow cytometric immunophenotyping assay for cross-matching in the case of transplants Imraunophenotyping conveys to researchers, lab supervisors, and scientists working in the areas of flow cytometry, cytology, pathology, hematotogy, immunology, and immunopathology why this outstanding technology is so vital to biomedical research. |
