Protein Purification Techniques: A Practical Approach, 2nd ed.

Protein purification techniques have evolved with improvements in equipment control, automation, and separation materials, and the introduction of new techniques such as affinity membranes and expanded beds. This book focuses on unit operations and analytical techniques. It starts with an overview of purification strategy and then covers initial extraction and clarification techniques. The rest of the book concentrates on different purification methods with the emphasis being on chromatography. The final chapter considers general scale-up considerations.
