Product Description

Mass Spectrometry has become one of the most important tools in the biochemical sciences with capabilities ranging from small molecule analysis to protein characterization. Because of this versatility, mass spectrometry is the technology many scientists are turning to. The Expanding Role of Mass Spectrometry in Biotechnology covers the basic concepts in mass spectrometry as well as advanced topics including protein identification/protein structural analysis, carbohydrate and oligonucleotide analysis. Topics also include pharmacokinetics, high throughput screening, and the recent development of mass spectrometry in clinical diagnosis. Features: Abundant Illustrations Mass Spectrometry Basics Protein Identification/Characterization Carbohydrate/Oligonucleotide/Steroid Analysis Pharmacokinetics/High Throughput Applications


About the Author

Gary Siuzdak obtained his Ph.D. at Darthmouth College and is currently at The Scripps Research Institute where he is Senior Director of the Center for Mass Spectrometry and Assistant Professor of Molecular Biology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-written excellent reference or short text on bio MS, April 4, 2006
By Joanna Daneman (Middletown, DE USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (COMMUNITY FORUM 04)      
Whether you are a biochemist working in the field of biotechnology, or an analytical instrument engineer, Siuzdak's compact text makes for easy reading and a quick way to bone up on most of the MS techniques being used today in biotechnology.

The second edition is a big improvement--better illustrations and graphics (especially the ones for ESI-MUX, high throughput analysis and MALDI and Q-TOF.) Just about every technique and instrument type were covered except for a couple of rare ones I could think of. The range of chapters covers the mass analyzer types then covers the use of various analyzers in pharmacokinetics, molecular analysis, proteins, peptides, nucleic acids and carbohydrates, and high throughput screening.

If you are a professor of analytical chemistry, I would recommend Siuzdak's book for your class. It is well-written, easy to read and covers the subject well. This book would be a welcome desk reference for most scientists who use the services of a mass spectroscopist for their work. There are a few articles on mass spec analysis of steroids, its use in disease diagnosis and a good glossary in the back. Highly recommended as a good basic text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction of Mass Spectrometry, May 14, 2007
Easy to understand, give the useful information for who are not familiar with MS and if you are graduate student who taking MS class, you have to read this book.
