    About this ebook

    Human tumor cells in culture are valuable for studying cancer causes and properties. This convenient reference provides useful information for cancer researchers on commonly used, established tumor cell lines of the major human organ systems.

    Atlas of Human Tumor Cell Lines includes data about morphological, metabolic, genetic, and growth characteristics of human tumor cells, with morphological characteristics presented in more than 250 photomicrographs. It also contains information for establishing and maintaining human tumor cell lines in culture, and each chapter covers future perspectives.

    • Covers well-characterized tumor cell lines from the major human organ systems
    • Presents over 250 photomicrographs, both phase-contrast and electron micrographs
    • Includes a list of key references for each chapter
    • Written by world-renowned experts
