Three Phase Partitioning

Three-Phase Partitioning highlights an under-utilized but extremely economical tool with applications in diverse areas of both chemical technology and biotechnology. This book serves as a single resource for learning about not only an economical but also a facile and scalable process, and the potential for applications in separation and purification of materials and compounds spans the entire spectra of chemical and biological nature. It begins by explaining the origins and fundamentals of TPP and continues with chapters on each related application, ranging from purification of parasite recombinant proteases to oil extraction from oilseeds and oleaginous microbes, and more. Chapters written by researchers who have been pioneers in developing and utilizing three phase partitioningFocused on applications, with chapters detailing relevance to a wide variety of areas and numerous practical examplesDesigned to give the laboratory worker the information needed to undertake the challenge of designing successful three-phase partitioning protocols
