This book presents a practical guide to the laboratory techniques commonly used in the analysis of lipids. It covers methods of lipid extraction in solvent and solid phase systems, as well as methods of derivation formation needed for a number of analytical procedures such as gas liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The book also describes in practical detail the techniques for complete analysis of both isolated lipids and lipid mixtures. These include GLC, HPLC, TLC and NMR. These molecules are found in every living system, and are of interest to the chemical, biotechnological and pharmaceutical industries in addition to academic research workers.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'This is a valuable book for postgraduates and other researchers. It is clear, accurate and reasonably comprehensive ... this blend of detailed practical instructions and lucid explanations of new and developing instrumental techniques is very useful and I am happy to recommend this book.'
B.J.F. Hudson, Chemistry in Britain, August 1993 'This is an excellent book which provides much valuable information for the successful analysis of lipids ... this really is an excellent book which deserves to be widely bought and well used.'
John Hardwood, University of Wales, TIBS 19 - March 1994 'This book gives practical details how to avoid the difficulties and deals with: the chemical nature of lipids; extraction of lipids and derivative formation.'
