Endothelial Cell Culture [Paperback]

Contains information and recipe-style techniques for culturing different types of endothelial cell.A collection of chapters on endothelial cells derived from the lung, bone marrow, brain, mammary glands, skin, adipose tissue, female reproductive system, and synovium. This text will prove to be a valuable reference for cell biologists and medical researchers.A collection of chapters on endothelial cells derived from the lung, bone marrow, brain, mammary glands, skin, adipose tissue, female reproductive system, and synovium.
