This comprehensive text offers a solid introduction to the biochemical principles and skills required for any researcher applying computational tools to practical problems in biochemistry. Each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, a review of the biological concepts involved, a discussion of the programming and applications used, key references, and problem sets and answers. Providing detailed coverage of biochemical structures, enzyme reactions, metabolic simulation, genomic and proteomic analyses, and molecular modeling, this is the perfect resource for students and researchers in biochemistry, bioinformatics, bioengineering and computational science.

Introductory Practical Biochemistry, designed to cater to the requirements of students of biochemistry, microbiology, molecular biology, cellular biology etc. covers modern techniques employed for qualitative and quantitative analysis of biomolecules. The techniques for genetic transformation etc., have been included to give preliminary information to the beginners in the field of genetic engineering. Radioisotopic and immunological techniques also find a place in the book. Each chapter starts with introductory details of the techniques followed by simple laboratory exercises. The book provides concise information on theoretical and practical aspects of the techniques employed in biochemical studies for the Undergraduate and Postgraduate students, Instructors and Research workers.

New edition of biochemistry textbook which introduces principles and techniques used in undergraduate practical classes.

Uniquely integrates the theory and practice of key experimental techniques for bioscience undergraduates. Now includes drug discovery and clinical biochemistry.
