First published in 1950 and translated into eight languages, Kuehnel's Pocket Atlas of Cytology, Histology and Microscopic Anatomy is a proven classic. The fully revised and updated fourth edition contains 745 full-color illustrations - almost 200 more than were included in the third edition. Superb, high-quality microphotographs and pathologic stains are accompanied by legends, informative texts, and numerous cross-references. Key features of the updated fourth edition: More than 700 high-quality illustrations using advanced techniques in histology and electron microscopy Practical, information Concise and focused text Key concepts and ideas illustrated in less than 550 pages Ideal for exam preparation, this world-class book is an indispensable visual study tool for medical, dental and biology students. It can also serve as an outstanding review and refresher text.
Many of the most important plant crop products, including oils, starch and protein, are produced in non-photosynthetic tissues such as seeds, roots and tubers. Unlike the situation found in leaves, metabolism in these tissues is not necessarily dominated by plastidial activities, and the provision of energy for biosynthetic processes is therefore different from that in green cells. In this book, leading researchers in the field present a fine overview of the latest thinking on the organisation of metabolism in such organs and the development of the cellular compartments responsible for the synthesis of important crop products. Graduate students as well as researchers in the field of plant biochemistry will find this book of great interest.
Volume 3 of the landmark treatise Food Analysis: Principles and Techniques provides a distinctive, comprehensive treatment of biological techniques utilized in the analysis of food constituents, ranging from the use of biologically active molecules -- the enzymes -- to the employment of cell cultures, microorganisms, and whole animals. Volume 3: Biological Techniques eliminates the problem of searching through widely scattered sources to achieve thorough understanding of the principles and techniques used in this area. In self-contained chapters -- written by renowned investigators to assure authoritative, up-to-date coverage -- this unique resource systematically presents detailed background information for each technique to provide a solid conceptual framework ... details specific applications and procedures, including numerous illustrative examples ... discusses advantages and limitations for each technique to help you select appropriate techniques for your needs ... and compares and contrasts the biological assay techniques with instrumental methods to enhance fuller understanding of the field. Unmatched in scope, Biological Techniques -- like its companion volumes in this important 8-volume set -- reflects the broad-ranging recent developments in the field and is a requisite source for all food analysts in industry, government, and academia, including food scientists, nutritionists, biochemists, microbiologists, toxicologists, biologists, and environmental chemists. Additionally, graduate students in food science and nutrition will find each volume of this work indispensable in their studies. Book jacket.
This book describes a number of biological techniques that are of vital importance to the quality and safety assessment of foods, particularly in the areas of nutrition and food toxicology. It contains examples of the application of the principles in the analysis of compounds of interest in foods.
Histology and Cell Biology: An Introduction to Pathology uses a wealth of vivid, full-color images to help you master histology and cell biology. Dr. Abraham L. Kierszenbaum presents an integrated approach that correlates normal histology with cellular and molecular biology, pathology, and clinical medicine throughout the text. A unique pictorial approach—through illustrative diagrams, photomicrographs, and pathology photographs—paired with bolded words, key clinical terms in red, and clinical boxes and "Essential Concepts" boxes that summarize important facts give you everything you need to prepare for your course exams as well as the USMLE Step 1. Access to studentconsult.com, with USMLE-style multiple-choice review questions, downloadable images, and online only references. Easily find and cross-reference information through a detailed table of contents that highlights clinical examples in red. Review material quickly using pedagogical features, such as Essential Concept boxes, bolded words, and key clinical terms marked in red, that emphasize key details and reinforce your learning. Integrate cell biology and histology with pathology thanks to vivid descriptive illustrations that compare micrographs with diagrams and pathological images. Apply the latest developments in pathology through updated text and new illustrations that emphasize appropriate correlations. Expand your understanding of clinical applications with additional clinical case boxes that focus on applying cell and molecular biology to clinical conditions. Effectively review concepts and reinforce your learning using new Concept Map flow charts that provide a framework to illustrate the integration of cell-tissue-structure-function within a clinical-pathology context.
