Areal Density Measurement is a Convenient Method for the Determination of Porcine Islet Equivalents without Counting and Sizing Individual Islets
The determination of islet mass is important for the normalization of islet experiments in the laboratory and for the precise dosing of islets for transplantation. The common microscopical analysis is based on individual islet sizing, calculation of the frequency distribution, and conversion into is...
