Book Summary:
Written by a recognized expert, this brilliant work describes the application of chemical modification of proteins to proteomic research, as well as sample preparation, sample prefractionation, the analytical technologies used in proteomic research, and validation issues. It merges current proteomics concepts with existing literature in solution protein chemistry. The author gives particular emphasis to the process by which a biomarker can be identified, validated, and developed into a diagnostic analyte that is useful in clinical applications. According to Proteomics, April 2006, Lundblad resurrects "the rigorous chemistry literature of the 1950's and 60's, on which most of our present-day knowledge is based.". |
