A Practical Guide to the Histology of the Mouse provides a full-colour atlas of mouse histology. Mouse models of disease are used in biomedical research with new models of disease being generated each year. Complete phenotypic analysis of all of these models can benefit from histologic review of the tissues.

Description

A Practical Guide to the Histology of the Mouse provides a full-colour atlas of mouse histology. Mouse models of disease are used in biomedical research with new models of disease being generated each year. Complete phenotypic analysis of all of these models can benefit from histologic review of the tissues. This ebook is aimed at veterinary and medical pathologists who are unfamiliar with mouse tissues and scientists who wish to evaluate their own mouse models. It provides practical guidance on the collection, sampling and analysis of mouse tissue samples in order to maximize the information that can be gained from these tissues. As well as illustrating the normal microscopic anatomy of the mouse, the ebook also describes and explains the common anatomic variations, artefacts associated with tissue collection and background lesions to help the scientist to distinguish these changes from experimentally induced lesions. 248 p.

This book fills the cap between modern scientist education where histological techniques are often dismissed and histological textbooks for which it’s a recommendable book of histogical practice for undergraduate and graduate students. It focuses on basic mouse histology and covers what-every-scientist-should-know; it also includes easy-to-follow protocols for histological preparations and dissections and clear figures.
