Description
Flow Cytometry, Second Edition provides a complete and comprehensive two volume laboratory guide and reference for the use of the most current methods in flow cytometry sample preparation and analysis. These essential techniques are described in a step-by-step format, supplemented by explanatory sections and trouble-shooting tips. The methods are accessible to all researchers and students in biomedical science and biology who must use flow cytometry to separate and analyze cells.
