Reviews

From the reviews:

"Ever wondered how to catch your FISH … in the dark pools of cellular biology? Then … FISH technology might be a welcome addition to your library. Thirty-six chapters on 485 pages compile the latest protocols and background information on fluorescence in situ hybridization (or FISH) … . Every chapter is illustrated by several schematic drawings … . The manual is completed by a subject index … . The book is certainly clear … providing valuable protocols for both beginning FISHers and for FISH experts." (Dr. Jan Roelof Van der Meer, BioWorld, Issue 6, 2002)
