Light Microscopy in Biology

This book answers the need for a working manual of techniques in modern light microscopy. It includes an explanation of basic procedures and equipment, telling how to record images produced by illumination techniques, immunohistochemistry, histochemistry, fluorescence, microscopy, micrometry and image analysis, combining microscope techniques in chromosome studies, and videomicroscopy. Emphasis is placed on the critical approach that must be made when interpreting results, helping researchers to make more extensive use of this technique in their work. Light Microscopy will also be useful to those attempting to visualize and record their observations at the microscopic level for the first time.Lacey, Alan J. is the author of 'Light Microscopy in Biology' with ISBN 9780199630370 and ISBN 0199630372.
