Flow Cytometry 3/e is intended as a handbook for every laboratory that has a bench-top flow cytometer or a fluorescence activated cell sorte r. It is an introduction and guide to those new to the field and a fir st point of reference for experienced practitioners who want to invest igate a new technique. The chapter of immunophenotyping - the most imp ortant clinical application of flow cytometry - has been strengthened by the addition of a chapter on quality control in the clinical labora tory. The utility of the book in a clinical laboratory has been furthe r enhanced by the addition of a chapter covering ten other clinical ap plications. Flow cytometry has found increasing application in the fie ld of apoptosis research. A new chapter has been added to cover this i mportant topic. Every flow cytometry laboratory can't afford not to ha ve a copy on the shelf as a first point of reference. The book is not fully comprehensive but it does aim to cover over 90% of the applicati ons of flow cytometry in mammalian biology.
