Reference Books in Confocal Microscopy

Cell Biological Applications of Confocal Microscopy Methods in Cell Biology, Volume 38 Brian Matsumoto, Ed. Academic Press, Inc., San Diego 1993 ISBN 0-12-564138-9 (Hardcover) ISBN 0-12-480830-6 (Paperback) 13 Chapters, 380 Pages, Indexed

This book was conceived with the understanding that the advantages of using a confocal microscope can only be realized with proper sample preparation. The goal of the book is to provide background information as well as specific, detailed protocols for sample preparation for both new and experienced confocal microscope users. Each of the thirteen chapters was written to stand alone. However, there are several general topics covered by two or more chapters: basic confocal microscope concepts and limitations, immunofluorecence applications, subcellular physiology studies, and neurology. Now available in spiral bound form, this book will be a useful reference to anyone using or planning to use a confocal microscope.
