Biotechnology-a-laboratory-course by becker et al
Biotechnology" A Laboratory Course has been used for laboratory courses at undergraduate and graduate levels in many colleges and universities in the United States and has been translated into Chinese. The objectives of this manual are unchanged. We have attempted to create a text that consists of a series of laboratory exercises providing a continuum of experiments. We begin with basic techniques and culminate in the utilization of previously acquired technical experience and experimental material. Two organisms (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli) a single plasmid (pRY121) and a single enzyme (B-galactosidase) are the experimental material, yet the procedures and principles demonstrated are widely applicable to other systems. The second edition differs from the first in many ways. Exercises 1 through 6 have been consolidated and streamlined. New procedures are used for large-scale plasmid isolation, yeast transformation, and DNA quantitation. New exercises have been introduced for polymerase chain reaction (PCR), for detecting/3- galactosidase in yeast colonies, for shuttling plasmids from S. cerevisiae to E. coli, and for detecting proteins on blots by antibodies. The Glossary has been amended and several new Appendixes have been added. For example, a new Appendix contains a list of World Wide Web addresses enabling students and instructors to access valuable information on the biological sciences on the Internet. All of the remaining Exercises and Appendixes have been completely revised to incorporate suggestions from students and instructors, and the references at the end of each exercise have
