    Description
    BIOL 142 is the second course in the Applied Biotechnologyseries.Itintroducesadvanced concepts and laboratory techniques in biotechnology. Building on the basic skills established in BIOL 141, students will learn methodology in large-scale protein production and protein purification techniques, including sample preparation. It provides hands-on training with chromatography systems and assays used in industry and researchlaboratories.Thiscoursealsocovers methods utilized for eukaryotic cell culture protein purification. Application of current Good Manufacturing Process (cGMP), Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), and Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's) in relation to these techniques will be addressed. Good communication, collaborative work and work- readiness skills are emphasized. This course is intended for, but not limited to, students preparing for a career in biotechnology.
