Beksac M. (Ed.) Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation

Humana Press, 2014 — 2nd Ed. — 313 p. — (Methods in Molecular Biology 1109) — ISBN: 978-1-4614-9437-9 (eBook), 978-1-4614-9436-2 (Hardcover).The second edition of Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation expands upon the previous edition with current, detailed methods on HLA, minor-HLA and Killer Immunoglobulin Like Receptor typing. With new chapters on immunophenotyping and functional characterization of stem cells are included. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and practical, Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation, Second Edition serves as a guide in the application of molecular methods for routine or investigational purposes.Reporter Gene Technologies for Imaging Cell Fates in Hematopoiesis
