Overview

Basic Protein and Peptide Protocols offers an excellent collection of reproducible, step-by-step laboratory methods covering three major areas: (1) the quantitation and characterization of proteins, (2) the electrophoretic and blotting procedures used in protein isolation and characterization, and (3) the analysis of protein and peptide structure. THOUSANDS of labs are already using Basic Protein and Peptide Protocols - you should be too!

Reviews

...would I buy this volume? I think that the answer to this is yes. It is a useful and concise volume that would be of great value around the lab. I would also recommend it for libraries as it provides an excellent reference source on techniques of protein analysis for undergraduates entering the difficult world of research projects. The value of this volume lies in the fact that any potential reader is liable to use the techniques described in several chapters to pursue a piece of research work. - Trends in Biochemical Sciences
