From the reviews:“This book forms part of the very large and well regarded Methods in Molecular Biology series, of which it is volume 637. Perhaps surprisingly, given its subtitle of Methods and Protocols, it includes not only protocols, but also reviews of a number of relevant areas of transporter biology … . In summary, this volume provides a very useful collection of up-to-date protocols for any scientist interested in the role of membrane transporters in drug action and drug development.” (Steve Baldwin, BTS Newsletter, Issue 37, Winter, 2010)“This book describes various methodologies used in ongoing research on membrane transporters and discusses the roles of transporters in various diseases. … The book does a good job of reviewing the key methodologies used in this research. It is written for biomedical researchers who are interested in membrane transporters and drug development. Graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the membrane transporter field will find it very useful. … It provides a good overview of methodologies used in the membrane transporter research field.” (Yi M. Weaver, Doody’s Review Service, July, 2010)
