Applications of NMR Spectroscopy: Volume 2

by Atta-ur Rahman (Editor), M. Iqbal Choudhary (Editor)

Overview

Applications of NMR Spectroscopy, Volume 2, originally published by Bentham and now distributed by Elsevier, presents the latest developments in the field of NMR spectroscopy, including the analysis of plant polyphenols, the role of NMR spectroscopy in neuroradiology, NMR–based sensors, studies on protein and nucleic acid structure and function, and mathematical formations for NMR spectroscopy in structural biology.

The fully illustrated chapters contain comprehensive references to the recent literature. The applications presented cover a wide range of the field, such as drug development, medical imaging and diagnostics, food science, mining, petrochemical, process control, materials science, and chemical engineering, making this resource a multi-disciplinary reference with broad applications.

The content is ideal for readers who are seeking reviews and updates, as it consolidates scientific articles of a diverse nature into a single volume. Sections are organized based on disciplines, such as food science and medical diagnostics. Each chapter is written by eminent experts in the field.

• Consolidates the latest developments in NMR spectroscopy into a single volume
• Authored and edited by world-leading experts in spectroscopy
• Features comprehensive references to the most recent related literature
• More than 65 illustrations aid in the retention of key concepts
