Bioconjugate Techniques, 2e provides highly detailed information on the chemistry, reagent systems, and practical applications for creating labeled or conjugate molecules. It also describes dozens of reactions with details on hundreds of commercially available reagents and the use of these reagents for modifying or crosslinking peptides and proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, nucleic acids and oligonucleotides, lipids, and synthetic polymers.

*A one-stop source for proven methods and protocols for synthesizing bioconjugates in the lab, allowing for fast retrieval of tried and tested techniques for synthesizing bioconjugates.

*Step-by-step presentation makes the book an ideal source for researchers who are less familiar with the synthesis of bioconjugates.

*Includes more than 600 figures that visually describe the complex reactions associated with the synthesis of bioconjugates, giving researchers a better understanding of how the commercially available reagents facilitate the crosslinking of peptides and proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, nucleic acids and oligonucleotides, lipids, and synthetic polymers.

*Includes entirely new chapters on the latest areas in the field of bioconjugation as follows:
Microparticles and nanoparticles
Silane coupling agents
Dendrimers and dendrons
Chemoselective ligation
Quantum dots
Lanthanide chelates
Cyanine dyes
Discrete PEG compounds
Buckyballs, fullerenes, and carbon nanotubes
Mass tags and isotope tags
Bioconjugation in the study of protein interactions


Summary: Fantastic, easy to read book
Rating: 5

I am always extremely leary of biochemistry and/or bioconjugate books because if you’re looking for a specific answer, you’re not going to find it in a book. Instead, you have to bother those with experience and learn from their techniques. HOWEVER, this book is an exception in the highest regard! I was able to easily derive a surface chemistry protocol in around 10 minutes, and it only took me that long because I was fascinated on how direct this book was. Basically here’s what you get:
1) Easy to read/decipher information
2) Fantastic Index
3) Quick answers that I couldn’t even find on Google

Best of all, in my opinion, is that each section is not prefaced with the past history of who/what/where/when/why, which although sometimes interesting, gives you no assistance in the lab.

Summary: a good book in bioconjugate chemistry area
Rating: 4

It is hard for a chemistry major student to switch to biochemistry area. When a chem student try to read the big biochemistry textbook, he will be dizzy because of so many reaction equations and biocircles. To his most surprise, those equations are quite different with what he learned in origanic lecture. What shall he begin to go into the new world? Read Bioconjugate Technique — this book will give Refresh you!
