ESR Spectroscopy in Membrane Biophysics

Download or read book ESR Spectroscopy in Membrane Biophysics written by Marcus A. Hemminga and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-14 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting from a comprehensive quantum mechanical description, this book introduces the optical (IR, Raman, UV/Vis, CD, fluorescence and laser spectroscopy) and magnetic resonance (1D and 2D-NMR, ESR) techniques. The book offers a timely review of the increasing interest in using spin-label ESR as an alternative structural technique for NMR or X-ray diffraction. Future aspects are treated as well, but only as an illustration of the progress of ESR in this field.
