Separating Cells (The Basics: from Background to Bench)

“Cell Separation” is a user-friendly practical guide aimed at anyone who is new to the techniques involved in separating cells. Readers are introduced to the background of the techniques using simple and direct language. Detailed step-by-step generic protocols describe the stages involved in the methods described, as well as how the technique can be modified if necessary, in order to obtain good results. Attention is also focused on data interpretation and possible sources of errors and artifacts. Some background theory is also included to allow an understanding of the methodology described later in the book. The book also serves as an excellent reference for experienced workers in the field.
