| Summary |
"This book provides a complete set of instructions to allow researchers to use zebrafish in their laboratory. It also provides a comprehensive collection of protocols for the most powerful techniques to study them. These include the analysis of embryos using in situ hybridization and antibody staining, cell labelling and transplantation methods, along with techniques for manipulating gene expression, mutagenesis, mapping and cloning. An atlas of embryonic stages of development in the zebrafish and an invaluable compilation of all published zebrafish mutations are also included."--BOOK JACKET |
