Ultracentrifugation of Macromolecules
1st Edition
Modern Topics
Description
Ultracentrifugation of Macromolecules: Modern Topics covers the theoretical description of the problem of sedimentation equilibrium of polydisperse nonideal solutions. The book discusses the sedimentation equilibrium in polydisperse nonideal solutions and the size distribution analysis by ultracentrifugal methods. The text also describes the simultaneous sedimentation and equilibrium in beta-lactoglobulin B, chymotrypsinogen A, and lysozyme solutions; as well as the sedimentation analysis of a multiple myeloma γG-globulin. People involved in physical biochemistry will find the book invaluable.
