Containing over 150 original photomicrographs accompanied by protocol information, this book shows organelles' structures, interaction, and organization into complexes. It includes a color insert that illustrates some of the most characteristic organelle features, microcompartmentalization, and alterations as investigated by one or more probes simultaneously. Each section provides a brief introduction and technical details of staining methods and gives explanations of unusual appearances and the cytochemical reactions when necessary. The book serves as a guide for therapeutic, diagnostic, or prognostic interpretation of images and for further research.
