A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

During the past few years the physiology of the amino acids has been subjected to much experimentation with the result that these protein cleavage products have assumed an ever increasing importance in the problems associated with nitrogenous metabolism. Owing largely to our too recent appreciation of the significance of these substances in metabolic processes there exists at present no compilation which furnishes an adequate conception of the roles which may be played by the amino acids. It has been, therefore, the aim of the writer to gather together in one place the results which have thus far been obtained in the field of the biochemistry of the amino acids, thus affording the busy practitioner, and others whose resources for consulting original communications are limited, an opportunity of gaining a knowledge of the present-day problems in this field of nutrition. In the accomplishment of this purpose the writer has made no effort to include all the details or all the literature available upon a given topic, but has sought rather to indicate leading lines of thought. At the end of each chapter are given references in which all the important literature upon the topic discussed is cited. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the fundamental principles of metabolism, hence, in general, these have been omitted. The author is deeply indebted to Professor Lafayette B. Mendel for suggestions, criticisms of the manuscript and for some of the plates presented.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
