Circulating Tumor Cells, Gebunden

Klappentext

This second editions explores new and updated approaches for enrichment, detection, isolation, and molecular profiling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Chapters detail comprehensive protocols for the capture of CTCs via filtration, density gradient centrifugation, microfluidic, immunomagnetic separation of CTCs, detection of CTCs by immunocytochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization, flow cytometry, assays designed for genomic characterization, and functional analyses of CTCs. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, the chapters include brief introductions tothe material, lists of necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readilyreproducible laboratory protocols, and a Notes section which highlightstips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Circulating Tumor Cells: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to be comprehensive guide forresearchers in the field.
