✦ Synopsis

LABFAX volumes are purpose-designed data reference books for practising scientists. Each book presents key information for a major subject in one place and so saves hours of searching. It does not simply collect together data which are already available in catalogues since these are often incomplete and can contain conflicting information. Rather, the authors and editors of each LABFAX volume have searched the original literature for the accurate data which they know the specialist needs.
Biochemistry LabFax is a detailed compendium of essential information - on radioisotopes, enzymes, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, plus data on selected techniques such as chromatography, electrophoresis, etc. - needed on an almost daily basis by researchers in any area of biochemistry. In addition, the book acts as a gateway to other sources for information more specific than can be covered in a volume of this size
