This is a required college textbook for my daughter. I'll try and remember to let you know if she passes the class.

A Keystone For The Laboratory.......2001-04-30

When I first started work in a lab as an undergrad, I would often learn of crucial tricks after I had already messed up a procedure and lost an hour or more of work. It's ironic how dependent molecular biologists are on that most ancient means of communication: oral tradition.

Book Description

Membrane Transport is targeted towards researchers with an interest in the mechanism of solute transport across biological membranes. Its scope is broad, ranging from the techniques required to study transport itself, through the expression, purification and reconstitution of transporters, to techniques for investigation of their structures. As such, it not only proves the necessary technical grounding for newcomers to the field, but should also be of value to "old-hands" wishing to get up to date with recent developments in these areas. While some of the approaches described require sophisticated equipment (e.g. a stopped-flow fluorimeter), most of the protocols can be implemented in any well- found laboratory. Preparation of this volume comes at a time when a result of genome sequencing our knowledge of membrane transporter sequences is far outstripping our understanding of their molecular mechanisms. Our hope is that this book will help future researchers to redress this imbalance.

The State of the Art as of Late 2006.......2007-03-07

This book describes a series of protocols that offer ways to deliver genes into mammalian cells. About half the book describes viral techniques where a virus is used to do the transport and delivery. The other half describes non-viral methods. The book has some 75 different techniques, each described by a researcher who has been using/developing that method.

Note that many of these techniques are brand new and still in the stage of being developed. Some of them are likely to prove useful, others will be of limited use, perhaps in a niche application or will simply lead to better techniques later on.

Dr. Rossi (Bechmann Research Institute) and Dr. Friedmann (UCSD) serve as editors of the book. It is called a Laboratory Manual as the protocols are presented in a stepwise, 'cookbook' style.

The book was published in early 2007 and should be considered an accurate reflection of the state of the art as of late in 2006.

Book Description

Expert researchers who have developed and applied significant new assays describe in step-by-step detail a variety of methods for measuring a broad variety of hormones, related peptides, and synthetic steroids in various biological fluids. The hormones measured range from glucocorticoids in biological fluids, urinary steroids, aldosterone in blood, and plasma renin activity, to gut hormones in plasma, melatonin, prolactin, 6-sulfatoxymelatonin, and androgens in blood, saliva, and hair. The emphasis is on noncommercial assays so that investigators can set up novel methods suited to their special needs. Commercial assays are also described for comparative purposes. Tutorials on radioimmunoassay, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, high-performance liquid chromatography, and PCR techniques help the reader to choose the best method for his or her purpose.
