Flow Cytogenetics
1st Edition
Table of Contents
Human Chromosome Analysis by Flow Cytometry. Instrumentation for Chromosome Analysis and Sorting. Cell Culture for Chromosome Isolation. Chromosome Isolation Procedures. DNA Stains as Cytochemical Probes for Chromosomes. Methods for Estimating Components of Multipeaked Flow Histograms. Univariate Flow Karyotype Analysis. Bivariate Flow Karyotyping.

Description
This is the first book to be devoted entirely to the application and development of flow techniques in cytogenetics. It provides comprehensive information on the use of flow cytometry and sorting for chromosome classification and purification. Cytogenetics and molecular biologists will find this book an invaluable reference source.
