Samenvatting:
Still the only concise practical guide, this edition combines the best features of a laboratory manual with a concise reference for successful experimental design. Full coverage of electrophoresis, liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry and further relevant techniques.
A thoroughly revised edition of the successful practical guide to experimental methods in proteomics, which now includes DIGE technology and liquid chromatography.
The first part, written in a textbook style, presents the various techniques and routes required in approaching proteomic analysis. Key methods explained are electrophoretic techniques including isoelectric focusing, SDS page, 2-D page and DIGE, and liquid chromatography techniques including ion exchange, affinity chromatography and reversed-phase HPLC. Mass-spectrometric techniques such as MALDI, ESR and FT ICR are addressed as well as a section on proteome functionality. The second part is a comprehensive, laboratory manual spanning the full range of methods from sample preparation to protein identification. The third part is a unique troubleshooting guide, designed to answer many of the frequently asked questions regarding proteome analysis. The final section contains a thorough reference list to guide interested readers towards further information.
Updates of protocols as well as animations illustrating crucial methodological steps are available on the Web at http://www.wiley-vch.de/books/info/978-3-527-31941-1/index.html
Still the only concise practical guide to laboratory experiments in proteomics, this new edition now also covers DIGE technology and liquid-chromatography, while the troubleshooting section has been considerably extended.
Adopting a practical approach, the authors present the relevant techniques and explain the route to successful experimental design and optimal method selection. They cover such electrophoretic techniques as isoelectric focusing, SDS page, 2-D page, and DIGE, as well as liquid-chromatography techniques, such as ion exchange, affinity chromatography and reversed-phase HPLC. Mass-spectrometric techniques include MALDI, ESI, and FT ICR.
Generously illustrated, partly in color, the book also features updates of protocols as well as animations illustrating crucial methodological steps on a companion website.
