Reliable Lab Solutions – serie

Due to its prolific reproduction and the external development of the transparent embryo, the zebrafish is the prime model for genetic and developmental studies, as well as research in genomics. While genetically distant from humans, nonetheless the vertebrate zebrafish has comparable organs and tissues that make it the model organism for study of vertebrate development.This book, one of two�new volumes in the Reliable Lab Solutions series dealing with zebrafish, brings together a robust and up-to-date collection of time-tested methods presented by the world's leading scientists. Culled from previously published chapters in Methods in Cell Biology�and updated by the original authors�where relevant,�it provides�a comprehensive collection of protocols describing the most�widely used�techniques relevant to the study of the cellular and developmental biology of zebrafish. The methods�in this�volume were hand-selected by the editors,�whose goal was to a provide a�handy and cost-effective�collection of�fail-safe methods, tips, and "tricks of the trade� to both experienced researchers and more junior members in the lab.

Need a tested, reliable method that works? Put Essential Bioimaging Methods to work for you. Editor Michael Conn has hand-picked the most robust methods from�his previously-published volumes in the�Methods in Enzymology series. Many of these methods have�been briefly�updated by�the authors that created them and use them in their research, and this�book further refines and organizes existing content and focuses on methods that work, including MRI, fMRI, PET, Microscopic optical imaging and other. Part of the Reliable Lab Solution series, this�volume provides clear advice and explicit protocols,�providing updates to classic, tried-and-true�methods and an essential addition to the bookshelf or workbench of any researcher in the field.
