 Cytoskeleton Methods and Protocols, 2nd Edn, Ray Gavin
In the ten years since the first edition, advances in fluorescent labelling, optics, and sample preparation have improved the imaging capability of microscopy, allowing for a continual refinement of our understanding of the cytoskeleton. In this book, international experts present technological advances in experimental tools for cytoskeleton research. This cutting-edge volume contains methods for live-cell imaging, fluorescence microscopy, electron microscopy, analysis of cell and organelle motility, isolation of cytoskeleton components, and proteomics. |
