Applications of spectroscopy to biomedical problems Book

The volume brings together biochemists and biomedical scientists who use spectroscopy to investigate detailed properties of systems, ranging from single proteins to cells, with groups applying spectroscopy to medical diagnosis. The emphasis is on the assignment and fundamental understanding of spectra leading to a better informed application. Work is presented in the following areas: Infrared and Raman spectroscopy; Terahertz spectroscopy; Spectroscopic imaging; Fluorescence techniques; Circular dichroism; NMR spectroscopic imaging; EPR spectroscopy; M�ssbauer spectroscopy. Faraday Discussions documents a long-established series of Faraday Discussion meetings which provide a unique international forum for the exchange of views and newly acquired results in developing areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. The papers presented are published in the Faraday Discussion volume together with a record of the discussion contributions made at the meeting. Faraday Discussions therefore provide an important record of current international knowledge and views in the field concerned.
