Features: This book primarily covers various material pretreatments, precipitation techniques, membrane separation techniques, various chromatography techniques (including gel filtration chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, chromatofocusing, affinity chromatography, reverse-phase chromatography, hydrophobic interaction chromatography), various electrophoresis techniques, an introduction to some hybrid technologies, and the integrated experiments planned for this course. In addition to providing detailed explanations of the principles of these techniques, the book specifically clarifies their main application ranges and provides targeted examples of practical applications. The content is in-depth, emphasizing both theory and application, and the "Experimental Section" introduces detailed steps for common biochemical separation experiments. It is suitable as a graduate textbook or a reference book for related researchers.
As a downstream technology in biotechnology, biochemical separation plays an increasingly prominent role in the field, and the technology itself continues to evolve. Currently, there are two main trends: the improvement of individual techniques and the formation of integrated or hybrid technologies. The book provides a detailed introduction to various biochemical separation techniques and the processes for separating and purifying biomacromolecules and small molecules. It integrates separation principles, application ranges, scheme design, equipment selection, operational techniques, and scale-up technologies. The explanations of principles are thorough, the descriptions of operations are clear, and the application examples are abundant.
Based on the authors' extensive experience in teaching and research, the book offers practical insights from a user's perspective. Whether selecting and combining separation techniques based on the target product or optimizing separation conditions from the perspective of separation efficiency, the book provides valuable recommendations. As a graduate planning textbook for Jiangnan University, the book includes a dedicated "Experimental Section" that provides detailed operational steps for common biochemical separation experiments. This not only reflects the characteristics of teaching but also offers experimental examples for professional technicians.
Therefore, whether you are involved in teaching and research in biotechnology, the development of biochemical drugs or other biochemical products, or the production of downstream biotechnology equipment, this book serves as an excellent "assistant," helping you to confidently tackle complex biochemical product separation challenges, whether you are a high-level researcher or a novice in the laboratory.
