Book Description

Publication Date: March 2, 1995 | ISBN-10: 0121821471 | ISBN-13: 978-0121821470 | Edition: 1

This volume includes spectroscopic methods for the characterization of macromolecules. Methods span the electromagnetic spectrum from X-ray to microwaves. It focuses on the types of information that can be derived: how measurements are made; state of the art apparatus; data acquisition, analysis, and interpretation; casebook examples; and new developments and future directions.

Key Features
* Ultraviolet and Visible Spectroscopy, including
* Absorption and Circular Dichroism
* Transient Absorption and Kinetics
* Linear Dichroism and Fluorescence
* Vibrational Spectroscopy
* Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
* X-Ray Spectroscopy

Editorial Reviews

Review

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 the 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
