"Abschließend kann ich dieses Buch nur empfehlen."
Uni Berlin

Prof. Dr. Hans Bisswanger is currently at the Interfaculty Institute of Biochemistry at the University of Tübingen. He has developed and leads an intensive course on enzyme kinetics, enzyme technology and ligand binding, while his main focus is on structural and regulatory mechanisms of multi-enzyme complexes and temperature stable enzyme complexes. He is also working on the gentle immobilization of enzyme activities on synthetic surfaces, a method which has been favorably applied for the restoration of damaged documents.
