The practice of peptide synthesis

The second edition has been completely revised and updated. The book provides examples of practical syntheses of peptides and of reagents needed for peptide synthesis. Technical details and potential hazards receive special attention. Typical syntheses are selected; these can be used when analogous materials have to be prepared. The purpose of the book is to help chemists involved in peptide synthesis with information needed in their work and to absolve them from numerous trips to the library.
