This is the first of two volumes on biochemistry and its techniques.
Nowadays, biochemical techniques and concepts are fundamental to research in virtually all branches of the life sciences. An understanding of the basics of biochemistry, together with an awareness of the latest advances, is therefore essential to anyone working or studying in these fields.
With over forty chapters, this book is a comprehensive guide to some current and emerging trends in biochemistry research. The section on biochemistry features chapters discussing specific bacterial proteins, peptides, peptidomimetics, estrogen receptors, enzymes and antioxidants, as well as the processes of cholesterol biosynthesis and glucose metabolism, including how the latter plays a role in the development of cancer.
The book has a strong emphasis on analytical techniques and discusses various advances and trends in immunoassay and labeling technology. Further sections describe research being done on bioenergetics and lipid peroxidation, which is thought to be the chief molecular process involved in oxidative cell damage.
This book is primarily intended for students and researchers in the life sciences and medicine, but will also be a valuable source of insight to anyone with a scientific background who would like to learn more about pure and applied biochemistry.
