Fundamentals of Receptor, Enzyme, and Transport Kinetics (1993)

Fundamentals of Receptor, Enzyme, and Transport Kinetics is the first book to pull together the most important topics in receptor, enzyme, and transport kinetics into a concise, easy-to-use format. Numerous equations are included, and key equations are graphed. For each graphed equation, important features are carefully explained. The book is organized so that simple material is presented first, providing a firm foundation on which to cover the advanced topics which appear later. Terminology used throughout the book is consistent with that used in scientific literature, and concepts are explained using analogies from daily life. The book also features two important appendices that will be particularly useful learning tools. The first appendix outlines all of the key equations from the text and indicates their use. The second appendix is a set of sample calculation problems and their solutions. Fundamentals of Receptor, Enzyme, and Transport Kinetics is an excellent text/reference for pharmacologists, biological chemists, experimental biologists, neurochemists, neurotoxicologists, physiologists, and toxicologists. It is also suitable as a graduate-level text in pharmacology and medical pharmacology.
