Stammzellen und Gentherapie erstmals in einem einzigen Band! Von den Grundlagen bis zu komplizierten Verfahren werden die Anwendungen der Stammzellbiologie zur Entwicklung von Therapien verschiedenster genetisch verursachter Krankheiten beschrieben. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf einem der schwierigsten Aspekte der Gentherapie, den Vektoren. Ein absolutes Muß für Biotechnologen, die Gentherapeutika für den kommerziellen Einsatz entwickeln! (05/98)
