Books in the New Developments in NMR series

This unique book describes the latest information in the fundamental understanding of the biophysics and biochemistry of articular cartilage using the state-of-the-art practices in NMR and MRI.

The aim of this book is to introduce the use of NMR and MRI methods for investigating electrochemical storage materials and devices to help both NMR spectroscopists entering the field of batteries and battery specialists seeking diagnostic methods for material and device degradation.

Focuses specifically on NMR investigation of complex polymers for the polymer community as well as NMR spectroscopists, and will push the development of both fields. It will cover the latest advances and show how these novel NMR methods characterize various synthetic and natural polymers.

Field-cycling NMR relaxometry is evolving into a methodology of widespread interest. Aimed at newcomers to the field and researchers in academia and industry, this book will summarise the expertise of leading scientists in the area.

Presenting an update and overview of paramagnetic NMR phenomena and effects, this book will appeal to researchers as well as students requiring guidelines for practical implementation of state-of-the-art experiments and accessible support.

This book is aimed at informing organic chemists and natural products chemists on the use of NMR for structure elucidation to enable them to ensure they yield the most reliable possible data in the minimum possible time. It covers the latest pulse sequences, acquisition and processing methods, practical areas not covered in most texts e.g. detailed consideration of the relative advantages and disadvantages of different pulse sequences, choosing acquisition and processing parameters to get the best possible data in the least possible time, pitfalls to avoid and how to minimize the risks of getting wrong structures. Useful in industrial, pharma or research environments, this reference book is for anyone involved with organic chemistry research and, in particular, natural products research requiring advice for getting the best results from the NMR facilities.

As a practical reference guide for designing and performing experiments, this book focuses on the five most common classes of contrast agents for MRI providing a unique, cutting edge book.

This volume focuses on solution and solid-state NMR of carbohydrates, glycoproteins, glyco-technologies, biomass and related topics. Timely and useful, it will appeal to researchers in the general field of structural biology, biochemistry and biophysics, molecular and cellular biology and material science.

Advances in Biological NMR brings the reader up to date with chapters from international leaders of this growing field, covering the most recent developments in the methodology and applications of solid state NMR to studies of membrane interactions and molecular motions.

In-cell NMR spectroscopy is a relatively new field. This book provides the first informative work specifically focused on in-cell NMR. Researchers in biochemistry, biophysics, molecular, cell and structural biology as well as NMR analysts interested in biological applications will all find it valuable reading.

Providing the first comprehensive book on the current state of hyperpolarized Xenon-129 NMR and MRI, this book is guaranteed to appeal to a wide range of scientists in the biomedical field and materials sciences.

This book will summarise recent hardware developments, highlight the challenges facing mobile and generally low-field NMR and MRI and describe various emerging applications - some of which have commercial interest.

This book presents a review of recent developments in NMR applications in pharmaceutical research. Consideration is given to consolidated and emerging techniques and methods, many of which are not yet widely applied but are likely to provide new opportunities for drug design.

The volume focuses on topics relevant to the developing field of "NMR crystallography", that is the use of solids NMR as a complement to diffraction crystallography, and will be of interest to every solid-state NMR researcher working in the chemical sciences.

The medical MRI community is by far the largest user of diffusion NMR techniques and this book captures the current surge of methods and provides a primary source to aid adoption in this field.
