Medical researchers including doctors, nurses, medical students and allied health professionals are required to undertake a period of research as part of their career pathway. This book covers the main areas, allowing anyone to set up and complete research projects and this information can easily be translated to clinical projects. Written by international authors to provide a flavor from many institutions, the book s appeal is cross-sectional, both at hospital and primary care levels worldwide.

Section A, the most important area in the book, covers the hardest step -...

Basic Methods for the Biochemical Lab elucidates proven lab procedures and practical hints for research in analytical and preparative biochemistry, as well as summarizing key data in numerous tables. To further emphasize the practical aspects and to minimize the text, theoretical introductions into the methods are mostly omitted.

The chapters cover: quantitative methods (proteins, nucleic acids, phospholipids and carbohydrates), electrophoresis (several polyacrylamide and agarose systems, 2D-PAGE, detection methods and affinity electrophoresis), chromatographic protocols...

Research in the area of chemical and biochemical sensors and the development of respective applications is still growing rapidly. In the last decade it has become evident that the successful development of chemical and biochemical sensors resistant to the harsh conditions in the various routine applications calls for a cooperation between chemists and engineers. Thus, this book aims at instructing researcher and practitioners in both disciplines in a strictly systematic, interdisciplinary and practice-oriented way about the basic technology of chemical and biochemical sensors. This concise...

Das offentliche Interesse an "gesunden" Lebensmitteln ist im Zeichen von BSE, Scrapie, Schweinepest, Salmonellen etc. dramatisch gestiegen. Tierische Produkte konnen heute ohne entsprechende diagnostische Tests nicht mehr verkauft werden. Aber diagnostisches Testen ist nicht fehlerfrei und Testfehler konnen zu einem groen Risiko fur die Kaufer (Kunden) werden.

Das Buch gibt eine praxisorientierte state-of-the-art-Darstellung zur Evaluierung von Tests und zur Interpretation ihrer Ergebnisse. Es ist das erste deutschsprachige Buch zu diesem Thema und richtet sich an methodisch...
