This technology began with quite modest  instrumentation, with limited capabilities to answer biological  questions. Today, both the clinical workhorses and the powerful  multi-laser, multi-detector, sorting machinery, coupled with  sophisticated computers and storage devices and the increasing  storehouse of markers and dyes, are taking us to the limit and beyond  in finding answers to the cause and cure of cancer. \u003cbr\u003e  In the past, both normal hematopoietic tissue and leukemias have been  the tissue samples of choice in the application of flow cytometry, and  some of the most recent applications with these tissues are presented  here. However, the book also discusses the increasingly sophisticated  disaggregation techniques which allow investigators the possibility to  train their lasers on solid tumors. Not only can we use flow cytometry  with associated fluorescent markers to understand the biology of  cancer, but also the wide array of existing and developing markers  provides us with important diagnostic tools in the detection of cancer  early in either the malignant or relapse process. And the field comes  full circle, with the use of the technology for gene mapping and other  genetic studies to unlock the basic malignant process.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-09-17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461285342\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4613-1253-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 318\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44343485956236,"sku":"9781461285342","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461285342.jpg?v=1771516171","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781461285342","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
