Book Description
Lab Manual for Biomedical Engineering: Devices and Systems examines key concepts in biomedical systems and signals in a laboratory setting. The book gives students the opportunity to complete both measurement and math modeling exercises, thus demonstrating that the experimental real-world setting directly corresponds with classroom theory. All the experiments in the lab manual have been extensively class-tested and cover concepts such as wave math, Fourier transformation, electronic and random noise, transfer functions, and systems modeling. Each experiment builds on knowledge acquired in previous experiments, allowing the level of difficulty to increase at an appropriate pace. In completing the lab work, students enhance their understanding of the lecture course. The third edition features expanded exercises, additional sample data and measurements, and lab modifications for increased ease and simple adaptation to the online teaching and learning environment. Individual activities have also been added to aid with independent learning. Lab Manual for Biomedical Engineering is ideal for undergraduate courses in biomedical engineering comprised of students who have completed introductory electrical and mechanical physics courses. A two-semester background in calculus is recommended.

Synthetic Biology: A Lab Manual
Author: Josefine Liljeruhm
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814579564
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Synthetic Biology: A Lab Manual is the first manual for laboratory work in the new and rapidly expanding field of synthetic biology. Aimed at non-specialists, it details protocols central to synthetic biology in both education and research. In addition, it provides all the information that teachers and students from high schools and tertiary institutions need for a colorful lab course in bacterial synthetic biology using chromoproteins and designer antisense RNAs. As a bonus, practical material is provided for students of the annual international Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition. The manual is based upon a highly successful course at Sweden's Uppsala University and is coauthored by one of the pioneers of synthetic biology and two bioengineering postgraduate students.An inspiring foreword is written by another pioneer in the field, Harvard's George Church: “Synthetic biology is to early recombinant DNA as a genome is to a gene. Is there anything that SynBio will not impact? There was no doubt that the field of SynBio needed ‘A Lab Manual’ such as the one that you now hold in your hands.”

Book Description
Control systems are an essential part of contemporary society. It play a vital role in our day-to-day life and find applications in different sectors like Energy sector, manufacturing process, industries, satellites, missiles, navigation, robotics, and biomedical engineering etc. The study of control is not only concerned with engineering applications but it extends in other areas such as business, economics, political systems etc. So it is necessary to cope up with the practical knowledge on control systems to serve the society. The better Comprehensive Lab Manual fulfils the needs of the education community. This book is intended to serve as a Comprehensive Lab Manual based on the course of control systems for undergraduate students of engineering. This manual provides basic approach for the development of practical concepts and insight into the subject matter and also written in a student - friendly manner. The book dealt in simplified sequential manner of fundamental with practical developement in MATLAB in the area of control systems. Theoretical explanations supported by graded solved examples which have been framed to help the young engineering students in grasping the practical knowledge and its applicability with the coverage of various topics. The book needs the requirement of undergraduate students of engineering in Electrical, Electronics, Instrumentation, Communication and Biomedical Engineering and also useful for post graduate students in the area of Control system Engineering. Significant Features Written in a very simple language Includes worked out examples to help the students to master in the concepts involved. Step by Step procedures are given for solving the problems. Most simplified methods used and it is ideally suited for self-study. Viva-voce questions are given at the end of the chapter and problems to assist students in reinforcing their knowledge.

Book Description
Filling the need for a lab textbook in this rapidly growing field, A Laboratory Course in Tissue Engineering helps students develop hands-on experience. The book contains fifteen standalone experiments based on both classic tissue-engineering approaches and recent advances in the field. Experiments encompass a set of widely applicable techniques: cell culture, microscopy, histology, immunohistochemistry, mechanical testing, soft lithography, and common biochemical assays. In addition to teaching these specific techniques, the experiments emphasize engineering analysis, mathematical modeling, and statistical experimental design. A Solid Foundation in Tissue Engineering—and Communication Skills Each experiment includes background information, learning objectives, an overview, safety notes, a list of materials, recipes, methods, pre- and postlab questions, and references. Emphasizing the importance for engineering students to develop strong communication skills, each experiment also contains a data analysis and reporting section that supplies a framework for succinctly documenting key results. A separate chapter provides guidelines for reporting results in the form of a technical report, journal article, extended abstract, abstract, or technical poster. Customize Your Courses with More Than a Semester’s Worth of Experiments The book is a convenient source of instructional material appropriate for undergraduate or graduate students with fundamental knowledge of engineering and cell biology. All of the experiments have been extensively tested to improve the likelihood of successful data collection. In addition, to minimize lab costs, the experiments make extensive use of equipment commonly found in laboratories equipped for tissue culture. A solutions manual, available with qualifying course adoption, includes answers to pre- and postlab questions, suggested equipment suppliers and product numbers, and other resources to help plan a new tissue engineering course.
