Basics of flow cytometry -- Practical considerations for flow cytometric sorting of stem cells -- Stem cell analysis and sorting using side population analysis -- Flow cytometry in the study of proliferation and apoptosis -- Flow cytometric analysis of drug transport and efflux in stem cells -- Stem cell biology and application -- Identification and isolation of very small embryonic-like stem cells from murine and human specimens -- Electronic volume of hematopoietic stem cells -- Hematopoietic stem cells : issues in enumeration -- Embryonic stem cells: development and characterization -- Human embryonic stem cells: long- term culture and cardiovascular differentiation -- Mesenchymal Stromal cells and their clinical applications -- Circulating adult stem cells of haematopoietic origin for vascular and neural regeneration -- Flow cytometric characterization of neural progenitors derived from human pluripotent stem cells -- Limbal stem cells and corneal regeneration -- Flow cytometric sorting of spermatogonial stem cells -- Breast cancer stem cells -- Tumor stem cell marker expression in cells from body cavity fluids.
"In most labs, training and resources are not available to teach methods of flow cytometry. Except for the original publications there are no books which talk about these sophisticated methods for stem cell analysis. There is need for a book which will review these procedures, discuss the science behind them, and show real examples to illustrate the usefulness of the methods. Besides using this book in work shops, it will be a valuable addition to any library or institution dealing in stem cell and tissue regeneration research."--Provided by publisher.
