Product Description

Review

"In this much-awaited second edition, Ruth Bellairs and Mark Osmond provide the research community with an updated version of the only available publication dedicated to the chick embryo...an essential reference text for developmental biologists and geneticists who use the chick embryo as a research model. The atlas is also an excellent source for educators wishing to explore the chicken embryo in the teaching laboratory." - Nicole A. Theodosiou, Bowdin College, in IN VITRO CELL DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

Product Description

The chick embryo has long occupied a special place among developmental biologists for both research and training. In recent years, its popularity has extended to molecular biologists, biochemists and geneticists because of its ready availablilty, short incubation period, and ease of handling. This book contains discussions of general chick development and details of the research techniques used. Features include: more than 90 photographs of serial sections taken by light microscopy; detailed labelling and accompanying diagrams; sections covering the period from immediately after fertilization until 13 days of incubation showing all the major anatomical events; plates of the embryo stained with alizarin and alcian blue to show skeletal development; and coverage of the development of the early embryo and the establishment of the organ systems.
