Techniques in Comparative Respiratory Physiology

A practical & experimental guide, this book provides the techniques that are taking comparative respiratory physiology into new areas. Comprised of reviews by specialists in numerous fields, the book seeks to provide a working basis for scientists who want to utilize new methods, & gives information on possible drawbacks & problems that may arise (the tips & tricks). Many of the techniques used by respiratory physiologists working on animals have been adapted from medical research. Conversely, there are a number of techniques developed by animal physiologists that find application in the fields of medical & veterinary science. The authors are drawn from an internationally growing body of scientists ranging from zoologists & field biologists to biochemists & molecular biologists. This is a practical resource for comparative physiologists, zoologists, biochemists, marine & freshwater biologists, protein chemists, & medical & veterinary researchers.Bridges, E.
