Organic Chemistry in Medicine

Professor Budin Michov, MD, PhD, DSc, studied medicine and specialized in biochemistry and clinical laboratory. He worked as a chemist and biochemist at the Technical University in Munich, Germany, and as a scientific adviser at SERVA Electrophoresis in Heidelberg, Germany. Later he became the chairman of the Department of Biochemistry at the Medical Faculty of Sofia University, Bulgaria. Prof Michov published articles on a new complex compound in TRIS-borate buffers, ionic mobility parameter, simplifying the Henry’s function, electrophoresis in one buffer at two pH values, TRIS-formate-taurinate buffer system for SDS electrophoresis (patented), electrophoresis of proteins and nucleic acids in agarose gel, and more. He is the author of several books, too: Molecular Mechanisms of Inflammation and Allergy (1977); Electrophorese, Walter de Gruyter, Berlin – New York (1996), in German; Electrophoresis. Theory and Practice, Walter de Gruyter, Berlin – Boston (2020); Electrophoresis Fundamentals (2022), Walter de Gruyter, Berlin – Boston; and more.
