Description:
Emphasizing human applications and concerns, this book covers the principles of collecting and preserving mammalian reproductive tissues. Reproductive technologies are increasingly in demand to assist in animal breeding as well as human conception. Appropriate methods for and ethical considerations of reproductive tissue banking have not been previously examined in book length form. This book serves as a model for the technology of banking other living tissues such as blood and bone marrow, and focuses on these principles as they apply to reproductive tissues.
Using reproductive tissues as the paradigm, Reproductive Tissue Banking presents scientific principles underlying tissue banking. The authors discuss emerging research and meld fundamentals of biology, chemistry, and physics with current laboratory discoveries to give the reader profound insight into research directions crucial to the advancement of tissue banking. Additionally, the volume explores social implications essential for financial support of research.This book benefits the work of biomedical scientists and clinicians in human and veterinary medicine engaged in tissue banking generally, and especially those working with reproductive tissues. -- Written by leading international researchers -- Provides insightful discussions on reproductive tissue banking -- Presents comprehensive citations to relevant literature, both current and historic -- Discusses in vitro preservation of spermatozoa, oocytes, embryos, and gonadal tissues of mammals -- Contains coverage of ethical considerations from a discussion of the splitting of embryos to an exploration of the protection of biodiversity
