Blurb

This volume discusses the requirements, advantages, and limitations of studying cell culture. The chapters in this book cover topics such as in vitro blood-brain barrier functional assays in human iPSC-based models; neuron-glia interactions examines with in vitro co-culture; epigenetic changes in cultures neurons and astrocytes; rat brain slices; brain punching technique; and using microRNA for in vitro neurotoxicity testing and related disorders. In Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.

 

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Cell Culture Techniques, Second Edition is a valuable resource for students and experiences researchers who are interested in learning more and making risk decisions in this evolving field.
