Cell death, non-invasively assessed by intrinsic fluorescence intensity of NADH, is a predictive indicator of functional differentiation of embryonic stem cells.

abstract：:The quick-freeze, freeze-fracture, deep-etching and rotary replication techniques were used to analyze the structural organization of Giardia duodenalis. The surface of the flagella was rugous, in contrast to the cell body surface which was smooth. The ventral region was characterized in more detail, exposing the laye...
