Summary |
"In this fifth edition, undergraduate students are introduced to all the basic experimental techniques used routinely in practical biochemistry today. Most attention is given to techniques that students will encounter in their practical classes, with the principles and theories behind them explained in detail to aid understanding. As a further aid to students, example calculations and worked answers appear at the ends of most chapters. 'Key terms' to understand are also included to help students thoroughly review each topic." "The book is essential reading for all bioscience undergraduate students and pre-clinical medical students for whom practical biochemistry, molecular biology and immunology form part of the syllabus."--BOOK JACKET |
