Helmut Sies, MD, PhD (hon), studied medicine at the universities of Tübingen, Munich, and Paris. He was the professor and chair of the Institute for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology I at Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, Germany, where he is now professor emeritus. He is a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina and was the president of the North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences and Arts. He was named ‘Redox Pioneer’; was the president of the Society for Free Radical Research International (SFRRI). Helmut Sies introduced the concept of “Oxidative Stress in 1985, and was the first to reveal hydrogen peroxide as a normal constituent of aerobic cell metabolism. His research interests comprise redox biology, oxidants, antioxidants, micronutrients.
Praise for the Series
"The Methods in Enzymology series represents the gold-standard."
--NEUROSCIENCE
"Incomparably useful." --ANALYTICAL BIOCHEMISTRY
"It is a true 'methods' series, including almost every detail from
basic theory to sources of equipment and reagents, with timely
documentation provided on each page." --BIO/TECHNOLOGY
"The series has been following the growing, changing and creation
of new areas of science. It should be on the shelves of all
libraries in the world as a whole collection." --CHEMISTRY IN
INDUSTRY
"The appearance of another volume in that excellent series, Methods
in Enzymology, is always a cause for appreciation for those who
wish to successfully carry out a particular technique or prepare an
enzyme or metabolic intermediate without the tiresome prospect of
searching through unfamiliar literature and perhaps selecting an
unproven method which is not easily reproduced." --AMERICAN SOCIETY
OF MICROBIOLOGY NEWS
"If we had some way to find the work most often consulted in the
laboratory, it could well be Colowick and Kaplan's multi-volume
series Methods in Enzymology...a great work." --ENZYMOLOGIA
"A series that has established itself as a definitive reference for
biochemists." --JOURNAL OF CHROMATOGRAPHY
