"This Laboratory Manual in General Biochemistry guides students in the isolation, characterization, and analysis of proteins, enzymes, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Each chapter has clearly stated objectives and informative discussion of the lesson. With its pre-lab and post-lab tests, and data sheets for students to record their observations, this manual becomes tremendously useful to students of biochemistry."
