Features: This book is divided into the following parts: Washing and Disinfection Systems, Temperature Control Systems, Water Quality Preparation Systems, Material Cultivation and Processing Systems, Gene Reproduction and Transfer Equipment, Bio-molecule Preparation Systems and Their Accessories, Separation and Analysis Systems, Detection and Observation Systems. Each chapter is primarily written according to basic principles and concepts, the composition and structure of instruments, the types of instruments and the characteristics of different model instruments, the functions and configuration of related accessories, the use and maintenance of instruments, the applications of instruments, and the progress and development trends of instruments. This book is comprehensive, systematic, and features up-to-date information, which is of great significance for researchers, especially undergraduates and graduate students, to master experimental equipment and improve experimental skills. Additionally, it is also helpful for technicians in instrument manufacturing companies to understand the working background and principles of instruments, thereby enhancing their theoretical knowledge.
This book provides a relatively comprehensive and systematic introduction to the basic and commonly used experimental instruments and equipment in the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. The entire book is divided into 9 parts and 35 chapters. It covers the basic concepts and principles, structure, use, maintenance, troubleshooting, and applications of each type of instrument and equipment, striving to reflect the latest developments in these instruments. It discusses the research tools and disciplinary development of the subject from the perspective of experimental methods. This book can serve as supplementary teaching material for experimental courses in biochemistry and biology-related disciplines in higher education institutions, as a reference book for regular use in relevant laboratories, and as a reference for teachers and researchers in related disciplines.
