By Greg Hermanson
Bioconjugate Techniques, 3rd Edition, is the essential guide to the modification and crosslinking of biomolecules for use in research, diagnostics, and therapeutics. It provides highly detailed information on the chemistry, reagent systems, and practical applications for creating labeled or conjugate molecules. It also describes dozens of reactions, with details on hundreds of commercially available reagents and the use of these reagents for modifying or crosslinking peptides and proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, nucleic acids and oligonucleotides, lipids, synthetic polymers, and particles and surfaces of many types.
Key Features
- Offers a one-stop source for proven methods and protocols for synthesizing bioconjugates
- Provides a step-by-step presentation of protocols, which makes the book an ideal source for researchers who are less familiar with the synthesis of bioconjugates
- Features full color illustrations, molecular models, and reactions
- The new edition includes an extensive introduction into the vast field of bioconjugation and one of the most thorough overviews of immobilization chemistry ever presented

Reviews
"Most of the chapters address specific systems and reagents such as (strept)avidin-biotin, silane coupling, buckyballs & fullerenes, antibodies, liposome conjugates, and modified nucleotides-as well as a few chapters on observation techniques such as fluorescent probes and isotopic labeling. Also new since the last edition is a chapter addressing immobilization in chromatography." ProtoView.com, February 2014
"This is an incomparable and essential guide for any scientist involved in conjugating biologically active molecules. The new edition does not disappoint with its liberal use of color (especially in reaction schemes), expanded pages, and newly added chapters. For those interested in bioconjugate chemistry, you may soon find that this is the only book on your research library shelf!" Rating: 5 Stars - Doody.com, February 7, 2014
“Most dramatic useful book ever in lab.” Rating: 5 Stars - Amazon Customer Review
