Description
Since the first edition of Light Microscopy in Biology: A Practical approach was published, techniques in modern light microscopy have improved considerably. This fully updated edition includes revised topics from the first edition as well as coverage of techniques and technologies that have been developed since it was published. As before, the book starts with an explanation of the basic techniques, and goes on to describe current methods in: chromosome
microscopy, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, image building and video microscopy. Totally new topics covered include: confocal microscopy, calcium and pH imaging, microinjection techniques and nanovid microscopy. There are also whole chapters now devoted to reflection contrast microscopy and
histomorphometry. This new edition will be of great interest to postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers in biomedicine and cell biology - both those experienced with light microscopic techniques and newcomers to the field.
Table of Contents
- 1. Basic optical microscopy
- 2. Introduction to confocal microscopy
- 3. Video microscopy
- 4. Microscopy of chromosomes
- 5. Immunohistochemistry
- 6. Calcium and pH imaging in living cells
- 7. Reflection-contrast microscopy
- 8. Histomorphometry
- 9. Optical microscopy in biology beyond the diffraction limit
- 10. Introduction of materials into living cells
- 11. Surface fluorescence microscopy with evanescent illumination
- 12. Nanovid microscopy
