Applications are in a multitude of fields, among them point-of-care diagnostics, bioterrorism detection, drug discovery; the fields of biotechnolgoy, pharmaceuticals, defense, public health, and agriculture all have the potential to benefit from miniaturization, integration, and automation. A thorough and objective treatise on stem cell research is included. Geared specifically toward advanced biochemistry students, this textbook is generous in its visual aids, including charts, graphs and illustrations on each topic.
