Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This work is primarily concerned with the practical issues involved in the production of antibodies and their derivatives. It demonstrates how proteins, especially enzymes and immunoglobins, can be isolated, characterized and produced on a large scale. The text shows how the major products of the immune system - antibodies and cytokines - may be produced and used as products of commerce. It also provides the knowledge needed to properly evaluate the process of immunochemical production, purification, formulation and marketing.
Includes bibliographical references (page 309) and index.
