About the Book
Presents preclinical and clinical investigations into the identification, isolation, expansion, and therapeutic applications of hematopoietic stem cells--providing up-to-the minute information on phenotype and characterization. Describes hematopoietic stem cell development into bone marrow and blood cells and shows how to isolate and expand them ex vivo."
