  Tissue Culture Microscopes - Microscope For Cellular Tissue Cultures
Tissue Culture Microscopes.COM is a major supplier of microscopes for biological applications utilizing living tissue cells in petri dishes and flasks.
Tissue culture specimens are often grown in petri dishes and need to be viewed from the bottom of the dish.
Applications for tissue culture microscopes may be as varied as cellular biology, molecular biology, medical diagnostics, university and college level biology classroom experiments, microbiological study, environmental research, and medical research.

  Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Tissue (biology)
The study of tissue is known as histology, or, in connection with disease, histopathology.
Muscle tissue also is separated into three distinct categories: visceral or smooth muscle, which is found in the inner linings of organs; skeletal muscle, which is found attached to bone in order for mobility to take place; and cardiac muscle which is found in the heart.
Vascular tissue - The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem.

  Tissue fluid
In biology, tissue fluid is a solution which bathes and surrounds the cells of multicellular animals and is also called the intercellular fluid.
The composition of tissue fluid depends upon the exchanges between the cells in the tissue and the blood.
To prevent a buildup of tissue fluid surrounding the cells in the tissue, the lymphatic system plays a part in the transport of tissue fluid.

 AllRefer.com - tissue (Cell Biology) - Encyclopedia
tissue, in biology, aggregation of cells that are similar in form and function and the intercellular substances produced by them.
The fundamental tissues in animals are epithelial, nerve, connective, and muscle tissue; blood and lymph are commonly classed separately as vascular tissue.
Histology is the study of the structure of tissues.

 Connective Tissue Biology Research Group
Research in the Group centres around musculoskeletal tissues particularly in relation to cell and matrix biology in development, ageing and pathology.
A particular focus is the biology of the synovial joint as an integrated organ of differing tissue types together with surrounding tissues and how these may interact during pathogenesis of degenerative joint diseases.
Members of the Connective Tissue Biology Group are all members of Cardiff Institute of Tissue Engineering and Repair (CITER) a virtual interdisciplinary Institute of over 100 scientists that interact to bring a wide variety of expertise to address the challenges of regenerative medicine and tissue repair in both trauma and disease.

 Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program | University of California, San Francisco
The research of faculty in the areas of Tissue/Organ Biology and Endocrinology addresses the complex issues of understanding the regulation of tissue and organ function at the cell and molecular level.
Among the specific research topics pursued are the biochemical basis of obesity, the role of extracellular matrix in regulating cell function, the biological basis of diabetes, reproductive biology, adrenal function, ion fluxes in skin and epithelium, and calcium homeostasis.

 The Evolutionary Biology of Plants (Karl Niklas)
It should not be read only by botany students assigned it as a textbook: I recommend it to anyone with a basic background in biology and a willingness to stretch their minds.
The Evolutionary Biology of Plants is a general review of central topics in plant evolution, which assumes no prior botanical knowledge and opens with a general introduction to evolutionary biology.
Chapter three deals with the origins of life, of photosynthesis, of the eukaryotic cell, of sexual reproduction and meiosis, and of multicellularity and the plant life cycle; and chapter four with the embryophytes and their invasion of the land, and the appearance of vascular conducting tissue, seeds, and flowers.

 History of HistoCD
The JayDoc HistoCD is a histology atlas that corresponds with the laboratory exercises of the Cell & Tissue Biology course of the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas.
Throughout the process the quality and accuracy of the images were supervised by the faculty of the Cell and Tissue Biology course, especially Dr. Kuen-Shan Hung, the course director.
Tissue slides were supplied by the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology.

 Tissue Engineering :: Biomedical Engineering : Gourt
Tissue engineering can perhaps be best defined as the use of a combination of cells, engineering materials, and suitable biochemical factors to improve or replace biological functions in an effort to affect the advancement of medicine.
Probably the first definition of tissue engineering was by Langer and Vacanti who stated it to be "an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function or a whole organ".

 Tissue culture Summary
Tissue culture techniques are also used to generate large numbers of genetically identical plants for agricultural applications, or to generate additional plants of rare or endangered species.
Tissue culture is defined as the propagation of plant and animal cells through the placement of small amounts of tissue in an artificial environment.
A tissue culture is the growth of cells (tissue) separate from the organism.
