Synopsis
Introduction to Biotechnology has been written primarily for undergraduate biotechnology and microbiology students. Written in a lucid manner, the book covers the basics as well as advanced topics of the subject., The first part of the book gives an insight in to the fundamentals of biotechnology with a detailed discussion on the basic structure and functioning of living organisms including cells, organelles, chromosomes, replication, structure and function of biomolecules and fundamentals of biochemical reactions as well as genetics and molecular biology. The subsequent part of the book gives an in-depth knowledge of biotechnological fundamental techniques such as recombinant DNA technology, genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, enzyme biotechnology, microbiology, plant and animal biotechnology, immunology, and environmental biotechnology. The book also covers bioethics and IPR. Owing to its vast and in-depth coverage of topics, it would be useful as a reference text for postgraduate students as well., Offering in-depth coverage of both fundamentals and techniques, Introduction to Biotechnology is ideal for courses in biotechnology and microbiology. In the first part of the text, author Ashim K. Chakravarty discusses the basic structure and functioning of living organisms-including cells, organelles, chromosomes, replication, and biomolecules-and the key principles of biochemical reactions, genetics, and molecular biology. Giving students the practical tools that they will need in order to succeed in the real world, the remainder of the text covers biotechnological techniques including recombinant DNA technology, genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, enzyme biotechnology, microbiology, plant and animal biotechnology, immunology, and environmental biotechnology. Key Features --Includes numerous illustrations, color plates, and text boxes that bring topics to life --Discusses the applications of biotechnology in agriculture, engineering, energy, and other related fields, helping students apply their knowledge to future careers --Features chapters on "Bioethics and Biosafety" (Ch. 15) and "Intellectual Property Rights" (Ch.16) --Provides rich pedagogical features in each chapter, including chapter summaries, review questions, and biographies of famous biotechnologists --Includes lab experiments for additional hands-on learning experience --Features an extensive glossary at the end of the book, The first part of the book gives an insight in to the fundamentals of biotechnology with a detailed discussion on the basic structure and functioning of living organisms including cells, organelles, chromosomes, replication, structure and function of biomolecules and fundamentals of biochemical reactions as well as genetics and molecular biology. The subsequent part of the book gives an in-depth knowledge of biotechnological fundamental techniques such asrecombinant DNA technology, genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, enzyme biotechnology, microbiology, plant and animal biotechnology, immunology, and environmental biotechnology. The book also covers bioethicsand IPR. Owing to its vast and in-depth coverage of topics, it would be useful as a reference text for postgraduate students as well.

    I received my items quickly. They were brand new, as described, and a very fair price. The shipping box was not very sturdy; it arrived with broken tape and a hole in the box. Thankfully, my items were not damaged. It may have happened in transport, but a little extra tape would help. Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would buy from this seller again.

    Arrived faster than expected. I had questions and seller was extremely helpful and prompt in his communication. The disk shipped in a small flat mailer and I felt like it was more than adequate protection from potentially awkward USPS treatment during it's journey to me. This is the type of seller that is VERY GOOD for the eBay community. We have saved the seller in eBay and will choose him again. *****FIVE STARS*****

    Seller inadvertently made a mistake on the first movie. When contacted, he immediately sent the correct movie and told me I could keep the one sent by mistake. It's a pleasure doing business with someone who values the customer and will make things right. I would definitely do business with this seller again.
