Experimental Biochemistry provides comprehensive coverage of important techniques used in contemporary biochemical research and gives students the background theory they need to understand the nature of the experiments.

This successful text provides students majoring in biochemistry, chemistry, biology, and related fields with a modern and complete experience in experimental biochemistry. Its unique two-part organization offers flexibility to accommodate various requirements of the course, and allows students to reference detailed theory sections for clarification during labs. Part I, Theory and Experimental Techniques, provides in-depth theoretical discussion organized around important techniques. A valuable reference for instructors and students, it's particularly useful to instructors who prefer to use their own customized experiments. Part II, Experiments, offers optimum flexibility through 15 tested experiments designed to accommodate the capabilities of laboratories and students at most four-year schools. Alternate methods are suggested and labs may be divided into manageable hour segments.

A Student Companion is a purpose-oriented, practical laboratory manual for students pursuing biochemistry as a subject module at various universities. This book presents a concise account of biochemical experiments based on a concept-oriented approach. An important intent in designing this book is to fortify the students' ability to perform an experiment in the laboratory. The coverage of the subject area includes complete experimental procedures and workouts in the qualitative & quantitative biochemical analysis, enzymology, biochemical separation techniques, biochemical preparations, clinical biochemistry, immunoanalytical techniques and food biochemistry. Due emphasis has been given to laboratory safety & hygiene. This book will be of interest to a wide audience ranging from students & instructors to researchers in the field.

Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Biochemistry is the long-established, first-and-best resource for the essentials of biochemistry. Students rely on this text to help them quickly review, assimilate, and integrate large amounts of complex information. Form more than two decades, faculty and students have praised LIR Biochemistry's matchless illustrations that make critical concepts come to life.

The biochemistry laboratory course is an essential component in training students for careers in biochemistry, molecular biology, chemistry, and related molecular life sciences such as cell biology, neurosciences, and genetics. Increasingly, many biochemistry lab instructors opt to either design their own experiments or select them from major educational journals. Biochemistry Laboratory: Modern Theory and Techniques addresses this issue by providing a flexible alternative without experimental protocols. Instead of requiring instructors to use specific experiments, the book focuses on detailed descriptions of modern techniques in experimental biochemistry and discusses the theory behind such techniques in detail. An extensive range of techniques discussed includes Internet databases, chromatography, spectroscopy, and recombinant DNA techniques such as molecular cloning and PCR. The Second Edition introduces cutting-edge topics such as membrane-based chromatography, adds new exercises and problems throughout, and offers a completely updated Companion Website.

EXPERIMENTS IN BIOCHEMISTRY: A HANDS-ON APPROACH, Second Edition features a variety of hands-on, classroom tested experiments that are proven to work and can be completed in a normal lab period. The manual’s stand-alone experiments are effective in courses meeting only once a week, giving students a broad overview of the subject matter. A more comprehensive set of experiments is also available and allows students to delve further into each of the topics presented. The Second Edition also features new and revised experiments, including a new experiment that involves cloning the barracuda LDH gene! Students and professors will also find expanded problem sets in this edition. Tip boxes, located throughout the text, provide pointers to students on how to perform the experiment at hand, while Essential Information boxes highlight pertinent information that will help the student complete the experiment. The second edition continues to include references and further readings at the end of each chapter. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.

The Book Is Meant Both For Undergraduate And Postgraduate Students As Well As For The Faculty Members Simply On Account Of Availability Of Every Bit Of Information In The Most Consolidated Form. The Exercises Included In The Book Contain Information On Their Theoretical Backgrounds And The Methods Are Described Largely On The Basis Of Experiences Of The Authors In A Way Easy To Understand By The Students. The Present Book Is An Outcome Of Long Experience Of Authors In Teaching As Well As Research.

The 48 experiments in this well-conceived manual illustrate important concepts and principles in general, organic, and biochemistry. As in previous editions, three basic goals guided the development of all the experiments: (1) the experiments illustrate the concepts learned in the classroom; (2) the experiments are clearly and concisely written so that readers will easily understand the task at hand, will work with minimal supervision because the manual provides enough information on experimental procedures, and will be able to perform the experiments in a 2-1/2 hour laboratory period; and (3) the experiments are not only simple demonstrations, but also contain a sense of discovery. This edition includes many revised experiments and two new experiments.
