Features: The Mouse Embryo Manipulation Manual is published by the renowned Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, one of its series of classic experimental guides. Since its first edition, it has been at least 15 years old. This book holds significant reference value for researchers working on mammalian embryo manipulation. The third edition of this book has been completely rewritten and organized by a new group of authors. It describes new techniques in mouse embryo manipulation, including genetic manipulation mediated by embryonic stem cells, chimeric production, cloning, assisted reproductive technologies (including intracytoplasmic sperm injection), gamete and embryo cryopreservation, whole-embryo culture systems, post-implantation embryo microporation, and gene expression analysis. The book also provides background information on the applications of these techniques. The third edition has been reorganized and updated to include content on mouse developmental genetics, as well as the use of recombinant DNA technology to study mammalian embryo development, which was previously described in the second edition. The Mouse Embryo Manipulation Manual (Third Edition) not only offers detailed technical protocols for mouse embryo manipulation but also includes relevant theories, making it an essential reference for researchers in mouse developmental biology and genetics, medicine, experimental animal science, and embryonic engineering.
