Automated Enzyme Assays

In the face of rapid developments in automated techniques, this book presents an excellent guide to present trends. It provides information on: principles and terminology of enzyme automation; automatic methods illustrated by the Technicon system; semi-automatic methods; interrupted-flow and discrete-sampling systems; single-enzyme analysis; multiple-enzyme analysis (M.E.A.); enzyme characterization; calculation of enzyme activities from instrument readings; generalized systems for enzyme automation; Appendices I. Published automated enzyme assays, II. Terminology used in enzyme automation, III. Apparatus used in enzyme automation, IV. Computer program for generalized enzyme automated system.
