In Mass Spectrometry in Biology and Medicine, leading practitioners detail revolutionary new spectrometric techniques for the identification and covalent structural characterization of macromolecules, proteins, glycoconjugates, and nucleic acids. Based on the Fourth International Symposium on Mass Spectrometry in the Health and Life Sciences held in San Francisco in1998, this invaluable book contains tested strategies for solving many significant biomedical research problems. The techniques use mass spectrometry, automated computer processing of spectral information, and gene, protein, and EST databases for genomic and proteomic correlations.

Mass Spectrometry in Biology and Medicine offers a unique opportunity to explore and apply the new techniques of mass spectrometry that are revolutionizing the identification and structural characterization of proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. Its authoritative assessment of the field-and how to solve important and challenging problems throughout bioscience, medicine, and drug discovery-ensures a competitive advantage for today’s knowledgeable researchers.
