Basic Laboratory Methods for Biotechnology, Third Edition is a versatile textbook that provides students with a solid foundation to pursue employment in the biotech industry and can later serve as a practical reference to ensure success at each stage in their career. The authors focus on basic principles and methods while skillfully including recent innovations and industry trends throughout.
Fundamental laboratory skills are emphasized, and boxed content provides step by step laboratory method instructions for ease of reference at any point in the students’ progress. Worked through examples and practice problems and solutions assist student comprehension. Coverage includes safety practices and instructions on using common laboratory instruments.
Key Features:
Provides a valuable reference for laboratory professionals at all stages of their careers.
Focuses on basic principles and methods to provide students with the knowledge needed to begin a career in the Biotechnology industry.
Describes fundamental laboratory skills.
Includes laboratory scenario-based questions that require students to write or discuss their answers to ensure they have mastered the chapter content.
Updates reflect recent innovations and regulatory requirements to ensure students stay up to date.
Tables, a detailed glossary, practice problems and solutions, case studies and anecdotes provide students with the tools needed to master the content.
To succeed in the lab, it is crucial to be comfortable with the math calculations that are part of everyday work. This accessible introduction to common laboratory techniques focuses on the basics, helping even readers with good math skills to practice the most frequently encountered types of problems.
Basic Laboratory Calculations for Biotechnology, Second Edition discusses very common laboratory problems, all applied to real situations. It explores multiple strategies for solving problems for a better understanding of the underlying math. Primarily organized around laboratory applications, the book begins with more general topics and moves into more specific biotechnology laboratory techniques at the end.
This book features hundreds of practice problems, all with solutions and many with boxed, complete explanations; plus hundreds of "story problems" relating to real situations in the lab. Additional features include:
Discusses common laboratory problems with all material applied to real situations
Presents multiple strategies for solving problems help students to better understand the underlying math
Provides hundreds of practice problems and their solutions
Enables students to complete the material in a self-paced course structure with little teacher assistance
Includes hundreds of "story problems"that relate to real situations encountered in the laboratory
