Current Protocols in Cell Biology

Aims & Scope

Current Protocols in Cell Biology is the comprehensive source for protocols for the multidisciplinary field of cell biology, providing an extensive range of basic and cutting edge protocols for the analysis of cell structures and functions.

These protocols permit investigators to analyze the cell at the molecular level, as a single cell, as well as a tissue in experiments exploring a wide range of areas, including: Cell Culture Preparation and Isolation of Cells Subcellular Fractionation and Isolation of Organelles Microscopy The target audience for Current Protocols in Cell Biology is anyone who is conducting research across the field of cell biology and biological disciplines that influence cell biological function.

Sufficient detail is provided to permit duplication of the protocols in any laboratory, whatever the disciplinary background or level of sophistication.
