About this book

This superb collection of well-tested protocols for the electroporation of proteins and DNA into insect, fish, and mammalian cells also includes proven animal cell electrofusion techniques for studies of somatic cell genetics and development, and for generating monoclonal antibodies. It is distinguished by its coverage of important model cell types from many organisms and tissue types and its detailed instructions for the growth and preparation of specific cells to achieve optimum transfection. Its extensive reference lists, citations of alternative transfer methods, advice on pitfalls to avoid, and descriptions of expected results ensure readily reproducible results even for beginners.

Media reviews
This volume should fulfill its aim, to take the guesswork out of experimental trials. - Society for General Microbiology Quarterly The book is very up-to-date, for instance it cover the most important recent developments in experiments with isolation of tumor suppressor genes in melanoma by cDNA microarray. The book represents an outstanding work, which should not be missed in all laboratories dealing with melanoma as well as in all departments where melanoma patients are diagnosed and treated. Those people who are interested to learn how the completion of the Human Genome Project significantly has been contributing to new progress in cancer management, exampled by human malignant melanoma, will certainly enjoy reading this publication as well.
