About this series
This volume covers the cultivation of fish and crustacean cells; gene transfer in insect cells; and the study of bacterial protein toxins using vertebrate cells. The fusion of plant protoplasts by electromanipulation; anther and microspore cultivation; gene transfer to induce morphogenesis; formation of phenolic compounds in cells and tissues in vitro; and new media and culture systems for the large-scale production of insect cells are discussed as well. Also included in the book is a biographical sketch of the 1986 Nobel Laureate Rita Levi-Montalcini, the developmental biologist who identified the nerve growth factor (NGF), a protein that is necessary for the growth, development, and maintenance of nerve cells in the peripheral nervous system and, apparently, also in the brain.
Cell biologists and researchers who use in vitro techniques will find the book highly informative and insightful.

Advances in Cell Culture, Volume 2 is a compendium of critical reviews in the field of cell culture. The chapters in the book are prepared by recognized authorities in their specialized fields. The text deals with all the aspects of cell culture, which includes the growth of individual cells or cell populations, the growth of small fragments of explanted tissue, the growth of organs, and the growth of obligate parasites in cell culture systems. This volume provides reviews of important aspects of in vitro cultivation and presents the increasing understanding of the wide ramifications of in vitro techniques. The book also focuses on specific topics in cell culture such as cellular senescence in vitro; introduction and expression of foreign DNA sequences in mammalian cells; media for insect cell cultures; agricultural applications of in vitro plant cultivation; and fish cell culture. A short biographical note devoted to Ross G. Harrison, whose insight and pioneering work led to the foundation of animal cell culture is likewise included. Cell biologists and researchers who use in vitro techniques will find the book highly informative and insightful.
