Author Description

Enzymes are the spirit of living cells. No metabolic reaction occurs in the cell without them. The study of enzymes is a major challenge to students and teachers alike, thanks to the vast corpus of knowledge being accumulated in the field. Enzymes are a core component at undergraduate and postgraduate level on a host of courses from biology and biotechnology to botany and zoology, but such courses are mainly served by cumbersome, voluminous textbooks. 'Enzymes and Enzyme Technology' is a concise, high-level text, written to provide students, lecturers and researchers with the most up to date knowledge relevant to their requirements.<p>Consisting of 18 chapters, which deal with the whole field of enzymes, the book is presented in a manner easily understandable to undergraduates, postgraduates, lecturers and researchers. It can serve both as a prescribed text on courses or as a library reference work.<p>Contents<p>1. Classification and Nomenclature 2. Enzyme Isolation 3. Enzyme Assay 4. Intracellular Localization 5.
