Description

This is a guide to the modification and crosslinking of biomolecules for use in research, diagnostics and therapeutics. It provides detailed information on the chemistry, reagent systems, and practical applications for creating labelled or conjugate molecules. It also describes a range of reactions with details on commercially available reagents and the use of these reagents for modifying or crosslinking peptides and proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, nucleic acids and oligonucleotides, lipids and synthetic polymers. This text is intended to help readers form unique complexes that can be used for detecting, quantifying and targeting important analytes. It is aimed at researchers in biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology, pharmacology, cell biology and microbiology.

Description

Bioconjugate Techniques is the essential guide to the modification and crosslinking of biomolecules for use in research, diagnostics, and therapeutics. It provides highly detailed information on the chemistry, reagent systems, and practical applications for creating labeled or conjugate molecules. It also describes dozens of reactions with details on hundreds of commercially available reagents and the use of these reagents for modifying or crosslinking peptides and proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, nucleic acids and oligonucleotides, lipids, and synthetic polymers. Armed with this information and the abundant protocols provided, readers will form unique complexes that can be used for detecting, quantifying, and targeting important analytes. This book helps readers make: high activity antibody-enzymes conjugates, immunotoxins, immunogen complexes, liposome conjugates; as well as biotinylated molecules, avidin or streptavidin conjugates, colloidal gold labeled proteins, PEG or dextran complexes, labeled oligonucleotide probes, and fluorescently tagged or radiolabeled molecules.
