Biophysical Chemistry

Tools of chemistry and biochemistry applied to the study of biomolecules Both fundamental and complex biophysical principles outlined Biological functions of biopolymers in relation to their chemical, physical properties highlighted Written in very simple, illustrative and lucid style The present book uses the knowledge of organic and physical chemistry along with biology to a broader area of biochemistry. The text is ideal for under and postgraduate students of biophysical chemistry and as a handy guide for researchers in industry and biotechnology. This text covers: The study of biological cell and its organisation Bioenergetics Statistical Mechanics in biopolymers Forces involved in biopolymer interactions Cell membrane and solute transport Biopolymers and their molecular weights Thermodynamics of biopolymer solutions Diffraction methods and study of macromoleculesNew Academic Science is a newly established Science, Technical and Medical publisher.
