Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory, practice, and biomedical applications of human cell culture. It covers the full spectrum of human cell culture methodologies, including laboratory design and biosafety, aseptic technique, media preparation, primary cultures, cell lines, cell maintenance, cryopreservation, contamination control, microscopy, cell-based assays, stem cell culture, and advanced three-dimensional culture systems. Particular emphasis is placed on Good Cell Culture Practice (GCCP), quality assurance, reproducibility, cell line authentication, and ethical and regulatory considerations in research involving human-derived materials.

Reflecting recent developments in biomedical science, the book also explores organoids, co-culture systems, organ-on-chip technologies, high-throughput screening, automation, AI-assisted cell analysis, personalized medicine, drug discovery, immunology, and translational research. Chapter summaries, review questions, laboratory exercises, troubleshooting guides, decision trees, and best-practice recommendations support both teaching and self-directed learning.

By integrating scientific principles, laboratory techniques, quality management, and emerging technologies, this book provides a practical and accessible foundation for understanding and applying human cell culture in modern biomedical research. Designed for postgraduate students, laboratory trainees, and early-career researchers, the book bridges fundamental concepts with practical laboratory workflows and contemporary research applications.
