Chromatography: An Invaluable Tool in research and the industry deals with the technique of chromatography and its major applications in the field of research. It consists of recycle HPLC technique used for the purification of natural products and basic principles involved in MLC. It provides the reader with the fundamental concept of chromatography so as to understand its application in the extraction of natural products, analyze posttranslational modifications and compare an electronic nose based on ultrafast gas chromatography. This book also discusses about reminder of systems of production and chromatography-based recovery of recombinant protein biopharmaceuticals, strong cation exchange chromatography in analysis of posttranslational modifications, chromatographic removal of endotoxins, dissolution testing of single- and dual-component thyroid hormone supplements, recombinant passenger proteins can be conveniently purified by one-step affinity chromatography and surfactant modified/mediated thin-layer chromatographic systems for the analysis of amino acids.

Shiv Sanjeevi Sripathi secured second rank in Mumbai University and first rank in his college at his undergrad level and in his college during his Masters and has worked on a stem cell project at the Specialized Centre for Cell Based Therapy (SCCT), KEM Hospital at Mumbai, following which he was a Junior Research Fellow at Microbiology & Cell Biology Department, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore from August 2009 to November 2011. The field of work involved cloning of cell wall genes and transcription factors in E. coli & M. smegmatis. This was followed by a stint as a Research and Development Executive at Transasia Biomedicals, Mumbai where he worked on patent writing and Immunoassays from 2011 till 2013. In 2013, he entered the teaching field where he has been tutoring biology and chemistry to the students of 11th and 12th grades along with English grammar and communication skills to people of all age groups.

Dr Prerna Pandey, a biotechnologist with several years of wet lab research experience, has worked as a senior research fellow at International Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, New Delhi. Her field of research in PhD included isolation and molecular characterization of Geminiviruses, genome sequencing, gene annotation, as well as gene silencing using the RNA interference technology. She has published papers in peer-reviewed journals in the field and has a submitted a number of annotated Geminiviral genome sequences in the GenBank, including two novel ones. Prerna has also completed her editing and proof-reading courses from SfEP, UK and now works as a freelance scientific editor, writer and a subject matter expert. She has edited and co-authored several books on a range of topics in Life-Sciences. When Prerna is not busy with her assignments, she loves visiting historical places.
