Know about the book -

The Microflow Cytometer is written by Frances S. Ligler and published by CRC Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0429533748 (ISBN 10) and 9780429533747 (ISBN 13).

This book describes the continuing development of inexpensive, portable flow cytometers through incorporation of microfluidic technologies and small optical components. The underlying microfluidic theories essential for microflow cytometry isdiscussed in detail, as well as advances that are representative of the current state-of-the-art. Design and fabrication strategies for these innovative component technologies will be subsequently presented by numerous research groups leading the field. Integration of the components into functional prototype devices for analysis and manipulation of particles and cells are reviewed. Multiple currently available commercial systems are examined to highlight both strengths and areas for improvement.
