Royal Society of Chemistry Nano and Microsensors for Chemical and Biological
Book SynopsisThe 9/11 attack on US soil has inadvertently heightened the need for preparation for other potential means of terrorist attack. In particular, both biological and chemical warfare have been at the top of the priority list for most governmental agencies as these reagents can be covertly prepared and disseminated to result in both widespread fear and casualty. Among many others, one primary preventive step in preparing for the above attacks is to establish a network for efficient surveillance and rapid detection such that an appropriate response to such attacks can be timely and effective. Over the years, primarily due to technological advances, both chemical and biological agents that are able to inflict mass destructions are becoming more diverse and complex. Subsequently, improvement of sensing devices for rapid and sensitive detection should also be made to keep pace with these engineered or emerging threat agents. Of particular interest, the ability to encompass advances in micro and nanofabrication techniques to enable sensing devices are especially of interest as they have been shown to offer desired advantages such as improved and enhanced functionality, increased efficiency and speed in their readout, reduction in their fabrication cost, and also reduced reagent consumption. Numerous innovative and exciting reports which took advantage of these techniques for both chemical and biological sensing have appeared over the last decade. This unique book is the only current publication that provides readers with a brief, yet concise, collection of the latest advances in chemical and biological agent detection and/or their surveillance. It compiles and gives in-depth detail on several detection schemes so that the reader can be provided with a general sense of these micro and nanoscale sensing systems and platforms. The book covers both well established and next-generation micro- and nano-scale sensors and/or sensing platforms. Sensors or sensing platforms covered range from the novel utilization of nanotubes, cantilevers, nano and/or microsized pores, engineered whole cell, to polymeric transistors for sensing purposes. As a result of these advances there has been a synergistic marriage of a myriad of techniques, ranging from chemical, engineering and biological, for the development of sensors, which was once traditionally thought to be reserved for the immunologists. The enabling of these new technologies will result in a much improved sensing network for the detection and surveillance of both chemical and biological warfare agents.The book also contains chapters from leading experts in the field of chemical and biological sensing platforms and will be invaluable reading for anybody in this field.Trade Review"The eight chapters in this book are written by worldwode experts in the field and cover a selection of topics that give a flavor of both the well-established and next-generation micro- and nanoscale sensors and platforms.""In all cases the chapters are detailed and insightful, the references are up-to-date, and a comprehensive table of contents and index allow easy access to the Information in the book.""...a useful book for anyone seeking an introduction to chemical and biological sensors" * JACS, Kevin Ausman *"...the book explores several exciting and innovative technologies that are under investigation and show remarkable application for use in the biosurveillance industry." "Aside from the extraordinary complexity displayed in developing these technologies, the book does a remarkable job in presenting them in a clear and unambiguous manner. Technologies are presented under distinctive headings and analysed and deconstructed paper by paper in impressive detail." "The overall impression is a well-sourced and well-constructed tome that will stand the test of time and be an important reference manual for scientists and technologists. Priced at a reasonable £89.95, this is great value for money and will not stretch even the smallest of nanobudgets." -- John P Phelan, Waterford Institute of Technology, Ireland * Biochemist, Evolution website. *Table of Contents1 - Carbon Nanotube Network for Chemical and Biological Agent Sensing; Carbon-Nanotube-Network Sensors; Introduction; Sensor Design and Fabrication; SWNT Networks; Sensor Fabrication; Electronic Transduction and Noise; Conductance; Capacitance; Electrical Noise; Gas/Vapor Detection; Gas Detection; Vapor Detection; Biological Detection; DNA-Based Detection; Antibody/Antigen-Based Detection; Aptamer-Based Detection; Summary; References;

Royal Society of Chemistry Protein Folding Misfolding and Aggregation
Book SynopsisProtein folding and aggregation is the process by which newly synthesized proteins fold into the specific three-dimensional structures defining their biologically active states. It has always been a major focus of research in biochemistry and has often been seen as the unsolved second part of the genetic code. In the last 10 years we have witnessed a quantum leap in the research in this exciting area. Computational methods have improved to the extent of making possible to simulate the complete folding process of small proteins and the early stages of protein aggregation. Experimental methods have evolved to permit resolving fast processes of folding reactions and visualizing single molecules during folding. The findings from these novel experiments and detailed computer simulations have confirmed the main predictions of analytical theory of protein folding. In summary, protein folding research has finally acquired the status of a truly quantitative science, paving the way for more exciTrade Review"As a whole, the book is strongly focused on current conceptual and theoretical thinking of protein folding.""...it will appeal more to academic scientists involved in fundamental studies." * JACS, Vol 130, No 52, 2008 *Table of ContentsPreface: Classical Themes and Novel Approaches in Protein Folding and Aggregation; Chapter 1: The Helix as the Simplest Protein Folding Model; Helix-Coil Theory, Stability and Design; Chapter 2: Kinetics and Mechanisms of -Helix Formation; Chapter 3: Protein Folding Theory; The Folding Energy Landscape: A Primer; Chapter 4: Hydrogen Exchange Experiments; Detection and Characterization of Folding Intermediates; Chapter 5: Statistical Differential Scanning Calorimetry; Probing Protein Folding-Unfolding Ensembles; Chapter 6: Fast Protein Folding; Chapter 7: Single Molecule Spectroscopy in Protein Folding; From Ensembles to Single Molecules; Chapter 8: Computer Simulations of Protein Folding; Chapter 9: Protein Design; Tailoring Sequence, Structure and Folding Properties; Chapter 10: Protein Misfolding and -Amyloid Formation; Chapter 11: Computational Studies of Protein Aggregation; Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Bioinformatic Analysis of Scenarios for Protein Aggregation

Royal Society of Chemistry Interpreting Organic Spectra
Book SynopsisSpectroscopic data undoubtedly provides a great deal of useful information about organic molecules. Competently deriving structural information from such data therefore, is a requisite skill for many undergraduates studying chemistry. Interpreting Organic Spectra covers the basic principles of spectroscopy in as non-mathematical a way as possible. It assumes no previous knowledge of spectroscopy and avoids excessive theory, approaching the topic as an exercise in pattern recognition. Hence the main focus of the book is in the provision of a variety of spectra for the student to interpret. Students are able to pace their progress by gaining confidence on the simpler spectra, and applying techniques learned to tackle more complex examples. As an introduction to the subject, it is ideal for A-level students as well as chemistry undergraduates and will prove to be a very useful reference tool for teachers and lecturers.Trade Review"... highly recommended as a source of challenging spectral interpretation problems." * Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry, 2000, 15, p 21N *"... an excellent resource for university students ..." * Education in Chemistry, November 2000 *"... this book will really help students to digest, understand, and practice spectroscopic structure determination of organic compounds." * The Chemical Educator, Vol 5, No 3, S1430-4171 *"... can be recommended ... this book tackles an enormous subject area well." * Chromatographia 2001, 53, June, No 11/12, p 713 *"This book provides a useful collection of problems for beginners." * Journal of the Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 1, No 9, 7 May 2001, p 1147 *Table of ContentsInfrared Spectroscopy; Mass Spectrometry; Problems in Interpreting Infrared Spectra and Mass Spectra; Ultraviolet Spectroscopy; 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy; Problems in Interpreting Infrared Spectra and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra; Problems in Interpreting Mass Spectra and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra; Problems in Interpreting Infrared Spectra, Mass Spectra, Ultraviolet Spectra and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra; 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy; Problems in Interpreting Infrared and 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra; Problems in Interpreting Mass Spectra and 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra; Problems in Interpreting Infrared Spectra, Mass Spectra, Ultraviolet Spectra, 13C Nuclear Magnetic Spectra and 1H Magnetic Resonance Spectra; Difficult Problems in Interpreting Spectra; Answers to Problems; Subject Index.
