from a specialist method used mainly by dedicated experts to a
major, commercially available tool in the arsenal directed at
understanding molecular interactions and stability. Calorimeters
have now become commonplace in bioscience laboratories. As a
result, the number of those proficient in experimentation in this
field has risen dramatically, as has the range of experiments to
which these methods have been applied. Applications extend from
studies in small molecule and solvent biophysics, through drug
screening to whole cell assays. The technology has developed to
include higher levels of sensitivity (and hence smaller sample size
requirements) and a drive towards high-throughput technology,
creating a very large user base in both academia and the
pharmaceutical industry.
This book is a fully revised and updated edition of the
successful Biocalorimetry: Applications of Calorimetry in
the Biological Sciences, published in 1998. Since then, there
have been many advances in the instrumentation as well as in its
applications and methodology. There are general chapters
highlighting the usage of the isothermal titration calorimeter and
the differential scanning calorimeter, more advanced chapters on
specific applications and tutorials that cover the idiosyncrasies
of experimental methods and data analysis. The book draws these
together to create the definitive biological calorimetric text
book.
This book both explains the background to the method and
describes novel, high-impact applications. It features works
of interest to the experienced calorimetrist and the enthusiastic
dilettante. The book should be of interest to all working in
the field of biocalorimetry, from graduate students to researchers
in academia and in industry.
