Summary: "While significant progress has been made in the past decade, the current understanding of protein aggregation and its consequences is still immature. Aggregation of Therapeutic Proteins provides an up-to-date resource on protein aggregation and its consequences, and available methods to control or slow down the aggregation process. This book also covers an overview on the causes, consequences, characterization, and control of the aggregation of therapeutic proteins. The knowledge in this book will help pharmaceutical scientists in the development of therapeutic proteins, and also instigate further scientific investigations in this area"--Provided by publisher.
