About the Book:
The Comprehensive Laboratory Manual of Life Science deals with practical trends in modern biological sciences. It provides protocols on recent advances in biotechnological methods, covering three major aspects of this interdisciplinary stream: Microbiology, Biochemistry, and Molecular Biology. The book is divided into four sections:

1. Introduction: Emphasizes good laboratory practices and etiquettes for beginners, covering the dos and don’ts of working in a laboratory, along with essential concepts and terminology.

2. Instruments: Principle and Precautions: Discusses commonly used equipment employed in different experiments.

3. Experiments: Divided into three parts:

   • Microbiology: More than 70 experiments.

   • Biochemistry: 62 experiments.

   • Molecular Biology: Around 32 detailed protocols.

4. Appendix: A comprehensive section that concludes the book.

This book is designed to meet the practical needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students in Life Science, Biotechnology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, and Biochemical Engineering. It offers worked-out solutions to commonly practiced experiments prescribed by many Indian universities. The latest technological developments included in the book will also be valuable for researchers and scientists.
