Topics Covered in Chemical Cytometry Research Report Include Microfluidic Technology

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ee3793/chemical_cytometry) has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new report "Chemical Cytometry: Ultrasensitive Analysis of Single Cells" to their offering.

Tying together technological and conceptual advances of the past decade, this seminal book introduces the novel approach of chemical cytometry -- the biochemical analysis of cell constituents at the single cell level. As such, it combines recently developed methods for the handling of single cells, the separation of their components, and the detection and analysis of biomolecular species with application examples from cell biology, neurobiology and molecular medicine.

The editor has succeeded in acquiring contributions from the recognized leaders in the field, resulting in a complete and authoritative overview for both developers as well as users of these new methods.

Key Topics Covered:

• Origin, current status and future perspectives of chemical cytometry
• Metabolic cytometry - the study of glycosphingolipid metabolism in single primary cells of the dorsal root ganglia
• Cell signaling studied at the single cell level
• Ultrasensitive detection of low-copy molecules from single cells
• Capillary electrophoresis of nucleic acids at the single-cell level
• Microfluidic Technology for single-cell analysis
• On-chip electroporation and electrofusion for single-cell engineering
• Electroporative flow cytometry for single-cell analysis
• Ultrasensitive analysis of individual cells via droplet microfluidics
• Probing exocytosis at single cells using electrochemistry
• Electrochemical determination of enzyme activity in single cells
• Single cell mass spectrometry
• Optical sensing arrays for single-cell analysis
