This unique, single-source volume offers complete coverage and assessment of cell separation technologies for analytical and preparative isolations of biological cell populations–demonstrating how to select and devise optimal sorting strategies for applications in biochemistry, immunology, cell and molecular biology, and clinical research.    Cell Separation Methods and Applications discusses the basic technical principles underlying, as well as the latest developments in  lytic removal of cell subsets  density gradient separations  biotin avidin immunochromatography  complement-based cell lysis  flow cytometry-based fluorescence-activated cell sorting  centrifugal elutriation  polystyrene immunoaffinity devices  high-density particles  immunomagnetic cell sorting  magnetophoresis    In addition, the book features   possibilities and imitations of cell purification in clinical cellular treatment for transplantation, AIDS, and gene therapy   combinations of separation techniques in molecular and cell biology and genetics, as well as clinical isolation of stem and progenitor cells for cancer treatment   appendices furnishing cell properties and a CD antigen table updated with results from a leukocyte antigen workshop held recently in Osaka, Japan   examples supplemented with performance data  and more!    Enhanced with useful references, tables, equations, drawings, photographs, and micrographs, this outstanding resource is essential reading for biochemical engineers, biochemists, cell and molecular biologists, immunologists, clinicians involved in cell transplantation, designers of cell separation systems, industrial microbiologists, oncologists, and graduate-level students in these disciplines.
