Publisher's Synopsis
Although the biotechnological application of bacterial cells has vastly increased in recent years, the use of mammalian cells is still very limited. This book supplies the fundamentals for biotechnological work with mammalian cells. Topics covered include: the raising of useful cell lines, the exploitation of mammalian cell vectors, the production of biological products and safety measures needing to be observed. This book, written by renowned experts, addresses scientists and graduate students working on biotechnological problems, as well as government officials who are concerned with biotechnology.
