"e;Real-life"e; crime dramas on television intrigue us with the details of postmortem examinations leading to the arrest of murder suspectsbut how do forensic pathologists, the doctors who investigate unnatural deaths and chilling crime scenes, actually bring criminals to justice?
It's time to bring Chris Ferrie's unique brand of learning to the next level of readers beyond Baby University with a new series-Everyday Science Academy!
Uno de los componentes más importantes de la célula es su membrana, la cual, no obstante, durante largo tiempo fue considerada inerte, hasta que en décadas pasadas los científicos dedicados a estudiarlas descubrieron que son el asiento de un sinnúmero de operaciones.
Wenn man Zellen als eine Art Stadt betrachtet, dann sind die Proteine darin so etwas wie die Arbeitskräfte in der essenziellen Infrastruktur: Ohne funktionierende Müllabfuhr, ÖPNV oder Trinkwasserversorgung bricht das System schnell zusammen.
A partir de la revisión de los ejemplares depositados en la colección Museo Micológico de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia Sede Medellín (MMUNM) y luego de una exhaustiva revisión de literatura, se desarrolló este libro que presenta descripciones de las especies encontradas, microfotografías, distribución geográfica,
In this fully revised edition of an established classic, expert researchers and clinicians describe in step-by-step detail updated techniques for the isolation and growth of major primary cell types, such as kidney proximal tubule cells, hepatocytes, keratinocytes, and cardiomyocytes.
For most of industrial applications, enzymes and cells have to be immobilized, via very simple and cost-effective protocols, in order to be re-used for very long periods of time.
Almost daily, new technologies are being presented that move the field of human pluripotent stem cell research towards a future that may yield highly-effective, personalized medical treatments.
Hands-on researchers review the principles behind successful miniaturization and describe the key techniques for miniaturizing large-scale biochemical and bioanalytical methods for microchip analysis.
Animal Cell Biotechnology: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition constitutes a comprehensive manual of state-of-the-art and new techniques for setting up mammalian cell lines for production of biopharmaceuticals, and for optimizing critical parameters for cell culture from lab to final production.
This volume expands upon the previous edition with current, detailed protocols for investigating membranes and their component lipids in artificial membranes, cells, and in silico.
Since its invention and subsequent development nearly 20 years ago, po- merase chain reaction (PCR) has been extensively utilized to identify numerous gene probes in vitro and in vivo.
Planar cell polarity (PCP), or the alignment of a collection of cells within a cell sheet, has proven, over time, to be vital in not only normal development but also in disease states.
A comprehensive collection of optimized methods for dissecting the mechanisms that control epidermal growth factors (EGF) and their regulators in both normal and pathological states.
Before the therapeutic potential of cell replacement therapy or the development of therapeutic drugs for stimulating the body's own regenerative ability to repair cells damaged by disease and injury can be fully realized, control of stem cell fate, immuno-rejection, and limited cell sources must be overcome.
This volume aims to outline the current status of the Mesenchymal Stem Cells(MSC) field in regenerative medicine and to propose clear and reproducible protocols to better define the identity, function and use of these cells that are today, more than ever, "e;under the spotlight"e;.
In the second edition of Cell-Cell Interactions: Methods and Protocols, expert researchers in the field detail a collection of protocols to examine interactions between cells.
Presentingstate-of-the-art protocols to study gap junctions, this detailed book firstfocuses on the use of methods and tools to investigate the different aspects ofconnexin expression and gap junction regulation.
International biobank collaborations allow for studies with large number of subjects where generalizability of findings across populations can be investigated, which means establishing quality criteria concerning the nature of the sample, conditions of sample storage, and the adequacy of available information is of vital importance.
Every cell in our bodies contains a great variety and number of permeability pathways for various organic and inorganic ions, water, metabolites, nutrients, and signalling molecules.
When setting out to decide on the content of DNA Repair Protocols: Prokaryotic Systems, I was conscious of the need to portray the vast array of pathways and enzymatic activities that are part of the discipline of DNA repair.
