{"product_id":"9783642811500","title":"Transition Metals in Biochemistry","description":"\u003ch1\u003eTransition Metals in Biochemistry\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eBrill, A. S.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eTransition metal ions in biological systems are of interest in biology, biochemistry, chemistry, medicine, and physics. Scien­ tists with rather different viewpoints, employing many methods, have contributed to this area. A concise review of the current state of the field will, to some extent, reflect the special knowledge of the person writing it - in this case application of physical methods to the investigation of metal coordination. x­ ray diffraction is one of the most important of these methods, but a useful treatment of X-ray structure analysis would be com­ parable in size with and beyond the scope of the monograph. Many results of X-ray diffraction studies are, of course, presented. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy has played a major part in the rapid advance in knowledge of the electronic struc­ tures of transition metal ions in biological systems. More gener­ ally, measurements involving light, microwaves, and magnetic fields are capable of producing much new information, and the required instrumentation is available at most research institu­ tions. Therefore light absorption and paramagnetic resonance are treated in depth. The principles described in the latter discus­ sions are broadly applicable, for example to the promising tech­ niques of X-ray spectroscopy (utilizing synchrotron radiation) and lanthanide-perturbed, very high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-12-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642811500\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-81148-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 244.0cm x170.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 186.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44448455131276,"sku":"9783642811500","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642811500.jpg?v=1756867579","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783642811500","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
