This fifth edition of the successful, long-selling classic has been completely revised and expanded, omitting some topics on obsolete DNA electrophoresis, but now with a completely new section on electrophoretic micro-methods and on-the-chip electrophoresis.The text is geared towards advanced students and professionals and contains extended background sections, protocols and a trouble-shooting section. It is now also backed by a supplementary website providing all the figures for teaching purposes, as well as a selection of animated figures tested in many workshops to explain the underlying principles of the different electrophoretic methods.

Die zweite Auflage eines Standardwerks: Alle wichtigen Aspekte und Techniken der Elektrophorese werden abgedeckt, von SDS-PAGE und Isotachophorese bis zu isoelektrischer Fokussierung, blauer Nativ-Elektrophorese und zweidimensionalen Methoden. Speziell auf die Bedürfnisse von Laboranten und technischen Angestellten zugeschnitten, stehen praktische Gesichtspunkte und Methoden im Mittelpunkt des Buchs. Nach einem Überblick über alle gängigen Elektrophoresetechniken mit einer Einführung in Detektion, Musterauswertung und Proteomik folgen Kapitel zu Instrumentierung und benötigten Arbeitsmaterialien. Detaillierte Methodenanleitungen erleichtern auch dem Anfänger den praktischen Einstieg in die Welt der Elektrophorese. Die Begleitwebsite mit zahlreichen Animationen ermöglicht einen zusätzlichen visuellen Zugang zu den einzelnen Techniken.

Still the only concise practical guide to laboratory experiments in proteomics, this new edition now also covers DIGE technology and liquid-chromatography, while the troubleshooting section has been considerably extended. Adopting a practical approach, the authors present the relevant techniques and explain the route to successful experimental design and optimal method selection. They cover such electrophoretic techniques as isoelectric focusing, SDS page, 2-D page, and DIGE, as well as liquid-chromatography techniques, such as ion exchange, affinity chromatography and reversed-phase HPLC. Mass-spectrometric techniques include MALDI, ESI, and FT ICR. Generously illustrated, partly in color, the book also features updates of protocols as well as animations illustrating crucial methodological steps on a companion website.

This laboratory guide for successful electrophoretic separations is divided into two parts to provide readers with a thorough presentation of the fundamentals followed by a detailed description of the most common methods currently in use. This fourth edition retains the successful concept of its predecessors, yet features a brand-new layout, and is further enhanced by a section on difference gel electrophoresis, while the chapter on proteome analysis is practically all new and considerably extended, plus there are now around 10% new literature references.
