Centrifugal Separations in Biotechnology (Electronic book text)

The biotechnology industry is growing rapidly and requires the successful separation of proteins, DNA, mitochondria, ribosomes, lysosomes and other cellular elements. Centrifugation is an increasingly-important technique to achieve such separations, and this practical book gives a broad but detailed account of principles, types of centrifuge, applications, testing, selection, sizing, troubleshooting, numerical simulation and membrane use. No other book aimed at the biotech industry achieves this coverage, making this a well-timed and vital book for biotech professionals. The key features include: first book to cover this area in depth; experienced author of international status; and growth area world-wide.
