Basic Laboratory Calculations for Biotechnology
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-0-367-24480-4 (ISBN)
Basic Laboratory Calculations for Biotechnology, Second Edition discusses very common laboratory problems, all applied to real situations. It explores multiple strategies for solving problems for a better understanding of the underlying math. Primarily organized around laboratory applications, the book begins with more general topics and moves into more specific biotechnology laboratory techniques at the end.
This book features hundreds of practice problems, all with solutions and many with boxed, complete explanations; plus hundreds of "story problems" relating to real situations in the lab. Additional features include:
Discusses common laboratory problems with all material applied to real situations
Presents multiple strategies for solving problems help students to better understand the underlying math
Provides hundreds of practice problems and their solutions
Enables students to complete the material in a self-paced course structure with little teacher assistance
Includes hundreds of "story problems"that relate to real situations encountered in the laboratory
