Opis

This is a comprehensive review of methods used to study the physiology and cell biology of the lung. The book covers the entire range of techniques from those that require cell cultures to those using in-vivo experimental models. Current techniques such as intravital microscopy are presented, and standard methods such as classical short circuit techniques used to study tracheal transport are fully covered. This work is intended for all who work in pulmonary research and need a practical guide to other established methods. It should therefore be useful for cell biologists who wish to use organs in their research programmes, and for biological scientists who are moving their research programmes into more cell-related phenomena.
