Description
Book SynopsisReflecting the versatility of the author's science and the depth of his experience, Application of Solution Protein Chemistry to Biotechnology explores key contributions that protein scientists can make in the development of products that are both important and commercially viable, and provides them with tools and information required for successful participation.
One of the of the world's most respected protein researchers, Roger Lundblad does not succumb to the notion that new is always better. The application of protein science to the practice of commercial biotechnology is traced to the underlying basic solution protein chemistry. It is only by achieving this understanding that the full potential of protein science may be obtained in the development and characterization of the diverse products of modern biotechnology.
Dr. Lundblad also goes far beyond the biopharmaceutical applications that are often equated with protein sc
Trade Review
...it is a container of a lot of entries taking us on a veritable guided tour through a large number of chemical reactions concerning proteins for practical and diverse biotechnological fields.
—Proteomics, 2011
… The book is a very valuable source for specialists interested in various aspects of proteins — from physicians to biochemists, molecular biologists, geneticists, and biotechnologists. There is no doubt that this book will be very useful for medical schools and universities students and their teachers.
