Need a Biological Protocol?

Did you realize that the University Library subscribes to quite a few “protocols” sources? Find links to these resources at http://www.library.illinois.edu/biotech/researchtools/

Wiley’s Current Protocols
Updated quarterly and searchable, you have e-access to such popular titles as:
Current Protocols in Molecular Biology
Current Protocols in Immunology
Current Protocols in Bioinformatics
Current Protocols in Cell Biology
as well as CPs in Cytometry, Human Genetics, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Microbiology, Neuroscience, Nucleic Acid Chemistry, Pharmacology, Protein Science, and Toxicology.

Nature Protocols
Includes peer-reviewed protocols published in Nature Protocols, as well as protocols derived from Nature research journals and from content posted directly to the site by the research community. All protocols are searchable and may be commented upon.

Cold Spring Harbor Protocols
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols is an interdisciplinary monthly journal providing a source of research methods in cell, developmental and molecular biology, genetics, bioinformatics, protein science, computational biology, immunology, neuroscience and imaging. The searchable site includes protocols from the Cold Spring Harbor courses (Xenopus, Mouse, Proteomics, Yeast Genetics); protocols from “Emerging Model Organisms: a Laboratory Manual”; and kit protocols from Abcam, Bethyl, Bio-Rad, Epicentre, and Qiagen. Part of the site is devoted to recipes for reagents, including purchasing information.

Methods in Enzymology
Volume 1 (1955) to present available electronically. This venerable series covers enzymology in the broadest possible sense, covering topics such as photosynthesis, nucleic acids, membranes, hormones, vitamins, immunological techniques, interferons, recombinant DNA, plant molecular biology, microbial toxins, mass spectroscopy, ion channels, and much more.
