- Zusatztext
- This book presents the fundamentals of molecular biophysics, and highlights the connection between molecules and biological phenomena, making it an important text across a variety of science disciplines.<p>The topics covered in the book include:</p><ul><li>Phase transitions that occur in biosystems (protein crystallisation, globule-coil transition etc)</li><li>Liquid crystallinity as an example of the delicate range of partially ordered phases found with biological molecules</li><li>How molecules move and propel themselves at the cellular level</li><li>The general features of self-assembly with examples from proteins</li><li>The phase behaviour of DNA</li></ul><p>The physical toolbox presented within this text will form a basis for students to enter into a wide range of pure and applied bioengineering fields in medical, food and pharmaceutical areas.</p>
