The first book of its kind on marrow stromal cells, and written by
leading experts in the field, this concise handbook aims to provide
all that is needed to those new to this relatively young area of
research. It provides a historical perspective and a summary of
present knowledge of the marrow stromal lineages which are
currently best understood. Detailed protocols for the isolation,
culture and characterization of marrow stromal cell types from
human and other animal species are given. The breadth and depth of
the subject matter included makes the book equally suitable for new
researchers and the more experienced investigator in this rapidly
expanding field, including clinicians and bioscientists.
The Works of Archimedes: Edited in Modern Notation With
Introductory Chapters Authored by T.L. Heath Sc.D.
This completely revised new edition contains expanded coverage of existing topics and much new material. The author presents the subject of electron microscopy in a readable way, open both to those inexperienced in the technique, and also to practicing electron microscopists. He describes currently hot topics such as computer control of microscopes, energy-filtered imaging, cryomicroscopy and environmental microscopy, digital imaging, high resolution scanning, and transmission microscopy. The author has expanded the highly praised case studies of the first edition to include some interesting new examples. This indispensable guide to electron microscopy, written by an author with thirty years' practical experience, will be invaluable to new and experienced electron microscopists in any area of science and technology.
Everything you need to make the most of spot and screen tests Spot Test Analysis demonstrates hundreds of valuable applications for the simple spot and screen test. Whether screening for cholesterol in blood, conducting antibody-based field tests for explosives, or even doing preliminary examinations, this laboratory reference book contains the detailed procedural information necessary for conducting rapid, on-the-spot chemical tests. This new edition is revised and updated to provide the most useful information in the field. Among the important applications featured in this broad, far-reaching book are: - Spot tests in clinical analysis
- Field and spot tests used in geochemistry and geochemical exploration
- Tests for detection and evaluation of air pollution
- Water quality screening for organic and inorganic materials
- Rapid screen tests of soils and plant tissues
- Screen tests for food adulteration and food composition
Spot Test Analysis, Second Edition is an indispensable resource for professionals in forensics, geochemistry, medicine, and public health. Quick, inexpensive, and increasingly more sophisticated, the simple spot test has transformed the ways analysts screen for chemicals. In the past few decades, technological advancements have permitted enormous amplification of the resulting signal. This progression, coupled with a trend toward simplification, has enabled professionals in forensics, geochemistry, medicine, and public health to answer analytical questions with minimum cost and time. Spot Test Analysis, Second Edition is a practical and far-reaching laboratory reference book. In addition to explaining the contemporary uses of spot and screen tests, this text describes the most up-to-date techniques for academic, medical, and commercial applications. In this new edition, Dr. Ervin Jungreis provides detailed procedural information. While the screen and spot tests discussed here do not attempt to stand in for necessary complex analytical investigations, they do demonstrate that rapid methods are sufficient to register gross deviation from a norm and establish a conclusive negative. This revised and updated Second Edition is as thorough in its treatment of techniques and applications as its predecessor. It provides many new wet and dry immunoassay procedures, such as tests for cholesterol and HDL, HIV and HSV, drugs, and explosives. Whole sections are devoted to spot testing in geochemistry, detecting toxins in air pollution, testing water for inorganic matter, and analyzing diagnostic test strips for foods, such as diethylene glycol in wine, saxitoxin in shellfish, and antibiotics in milk.

The investigation and manipulation of matter on the atomic scale have been revolutionized by scanning tunneling microscopy and related scanning probe techniques. This book is the first to provide a clear and comprehensive introduction to this subject. Beginning with the theoretical background of scanning tunneling microscopy, the design and instrumentation of practical STM and associated systems are described in detail, including topographic imaging, local tunneling barrier height measurements, tunneling spectroscopy, and local potentiometry. A treatment of the experimental techniques used in scanning force microscopy and other scanning probe techniques rounds out this section. The second part discusses representative applications of these techniques in fields such as condensed matter physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, and nanotechnology, so this book will be extremely valuable to upper-division students and researchers in these areas.
This is an extensively illustrated laboratory manual of
transmission electron microscopy techniques for the technician,
graduate student, or researcher. Chapters begin with a general
discussion, move on to the chemicals and equipment required for the
method being described and conclude with a step-by-step
presentation of the method and instructions for the preparation of
solutions. Notes at the end of each chapter warn of possible
pitfalls and outline 'tricks of the trade'. The methods and
techniques outlined have been tested for over ten years in clinical
and research laboratory situations, and are entirely reliable.
Practical Electron Microscopy covers fixation, dehydration and
embedding, semi-thin and thin sectioning, the electron microscope,
and photography. For this new edition, the chapters on photography
and the electron microscope have been completely rewritten and two
new chapters have been added, one on immuno electron microscopy
using colloidal gold, and one dealing with such special techniques
as retrieving specimens from paraffin and handling nasal brushings
and blood samples. This manual will be an invaluable guide to
anyone using electron microscopy on human and animal tissue and
wishing to develop a routine that guarantees good and reproducible
results.
The compound optical microscope, in its various modern forms, is
probably the most familiar of all laboratory instruments and the
electron microscope, once an exotic rarity, has now become a
standard tool in biological and materials research. Both
instruments are often used effectively with little knowledge of the
relevant theory, or even of how a particular type of microscope
functions. Eventually however, proper use, interpretation of images
and choices of specific applications demand an understanding of
fundamental principles. This book describes the principles of
operation of each type of microscope currently available and of use
to biomedical and materials scientists. It explains the mechanisms
of image formation, contrast and its enhancement, accounts for
ultimate limits on the size of observable details (resolving power
and resolution) and finally provides an account of Fourier optical
theory. Principles behind the photographic methods used in
microscopy are also described and there is some discussion of image
processing methods. The book will appeal to graduate students and
researchers in the biomedical sciences, and it will be helpful to
students taking a course involving the principles of microscopy.
