Pathology Of Genetically Engineered And Other Mutant Mice (EPUB)

Pathology Of Genetically Engineered And Other Mutant Mice (EPUB)

By Jerrold M. Ward, Peter Vogel and John P. Sundberg

An up-to-date and thorough reference on pathology in genetically engineered mice across all organ systems

Pathologists and biomedical scientists faced with discovering and comprehending pathologic alterations in genetically modified mice will find a comprehensive

resource in the recently revised and extensively updated Second Edition of Pathology of Genetically Engineered and Other Mutant Mice.

The book is arranged according to bodily systems and contains hundreds of color photos showing typical and uncommon lesions that can be discovered in both

wild type and genetically modified mice.

It also includes descriptions and explanations of a wide range of discoveries.

The authors of the book are seasoned medical and veterinary pathologists who work in research facilities, medical colleges, and veterinary medical colleges.

This unique and easily accessible resource is essential reading for veterinary and medical pathologists, as well as researchers who work with genetically altered

and other mice.

It covers the most recent findings in mouse pathology that have arisen from advances in biotechnology research over the previous 30 years.

Additionally, readers will gain from:

An extensive overview of mouse genetic nomenclature and disease, together with resources helpful for analyzing mutant mice

An examination of ideas about animal model validation, such as the Cinderella Effect

Discussions of fundamental necropsy techniques in practice and how to grade lesions for computer analysis

Brief diagnostic techniques for the skeletal system, various tissues, liver and pancreas, cardiovascular system, respiratory tract, mouth cavity and gastrointestinal

tract .

Pathology of Genetically Engineered and Other Mutant Mice is a must-have book for veterinary and medical pathologists, as well as for scientists, researchers,

and toxicologists who work with genetically modified mice.

It serves as a comprehensive and current reference on mouse pathology.
