Wilson And Walkers Principles And Techniques Of Biochemistry And Molecular Biology 8Ed (Sae) (Pb 2018)

Bringing this best-selling textbook right up to date, the new edition uniquely integrates the theories and methods that drive the fields of biology, biotechnology and medicine, comprehensively covering both the techniques students will encounter in lab classes and those that underpin current key advances and discoveries. The contents have been updated to include both traditional and cutting-edge techniques most commonly used in current life science research. Emphasis is placed on understanding the theory behind the techniques, as well as analysis of the resulting data. New chapters cover proteomics, genomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics, as well as data analysis and visualisation. Using accessible language to describe concepts and methods, and with a wealth of new in-text worked examples to challenge students' understanding, this textbook provides an essential guide to the key techniques used in current bioscience research. Introduces the latest methods in the life sciences, including cutting-edge techniques such as CRISPR/gene editing and single molecule diffraction/imaging Promotes problem-solving with lots of worked examples to support students in understanding the quantitative calculations behind the methods The book is re-organised and extensively rewritten to ensure coverage of all the key current research areas including omics methods, as well as providing the informatics and analytical tools to support students in handling the data generated
