Written in a very simple and reader-friendly manner, this book can be used by laboratory personnel in the biological and chemical sciences. It addresses the difficulties students and scientific laboratory personnel have with translating chemical concepts into an in-lab practical preparation and description of solutions. Its step-by-step approach in describing pre-laboratory calculations and setups, and the preparation of solution at the bench, was designed to meet the needs of a wide range of laboratory personnel irrespective of their academic status. The provision of alternative methods and approaches presented in this book ensures that readers can choose an approach more suited to their needs and understanding.

A Solution to Solutions: A Practical Guide to Understanding and Preparing Solutions in Biological Chemistry teaches students the background and theory of laboratory calculations and practices, provides clear instructions and examples to help complete specific calculations, and gives students confidence in their laboratory skills. Students learn terminology, concentration units, and how to convert units. They study basic chemistry, chemical equilibria, multicomponent assays, laboratory measurements, and the dangers of "rough handling" in the lab. Chapters and subchapters are divided into sections focusing on specific tasks. Math anxiety is reduced by a clear, concise review of basic algebra a...
Often considered as a simple task, chemical analysis actually requires a variety of quite complex skills. As a practitioner in an interdisciplinary science, the analytical scientist is relied upon to have the knowledge and skill to help solve problems or to provide relevant information. They will need to think laterally, examine the process from sampling to final result carefully, in addition to selecting the appropriate technique in order to satisfy the objective and obtain a reliable result. The aim of this book is to provide basic training in the whole analytical process for students, demonstrating why analysis is necessary and how to take samples, before they attempt to carry out any ana...
Presented from the perspective of the biotech industry, this laboratory handbook/textbook reference gives a systematic, understandable, and practical introduction to fundamental laboratory methods and provides a foundation upon which students can build a career in the lab. The authors balance background and theory with practical information, drawing material from many sources: analytical chemistry texts, molecular biology manuals, industry standards, government regulations, manufacturer and supplier information, and the useful laboratory "lore" that is part of the industry's oral tradition. KEY TOPICS: The Modern Biotechnology Industry: A Broad Overview, The Business of Biotechnology: The Tr...
