Enzyme Kinetics: Principles and Methods is a user-friendly and comprehensive treatise on enzyme kinetics - indispensable for biochemists, biologists, medical scientists, and chemists working with enzymes, from advanced students to experts in academia and industry.

Theory and practice are well-balanced, the relation to the biological system is always emphasized. Theoretical aspects are presented in a way which is also comprehensible for the beginner. An extensive methodological part provides the expert with valuable support in planning and performing laboratory experiments.

Contains a CD-ROM with EKI-3, the elaborate and easy-to-use version of the enzyme kinetics practical course.
