Biomedical EPR, Part A: Free Radicals, Metals, Medicine, and Physiology. Part B: Methodology, Instrumentation, and Dynamics

Biomedical EPR – Part A focuses on applications of EPR spectroscopy in the areas of free radicals, metals, medicine, and physiology. The book celebrates the 70^th birthday of Prof. James S. Hyde, Medical College of Wisconsin, and his contributions to this field. Chapters are written to provide introductory material for new-comers to the field which lead into up-to-date reviews that provide perspective on the wide range of questions that can be addressed by EPR.

Key Features:
-Free Radicals in Medicine
-Radicals in vivo and in Model Systems, and their Study by Spin Trapping
-In vivo EPR, including Oximetry and Imaging
-Time Domain EPR at Radio Frequencies
-EPR of Copper Complexes: Motion and Frequency Dependence
-Time Domain EPR and Electron Spin Echo Envelope Modulation.

Biomedical EPR – Part B focuses on applications of EPR techniques and instrumentation, with applications to dynamics. The book celebrates the 70^th birthday of Prof. James S. Hyde, Medical College of Wisconsin, and his contributions to this field. Chapters are written to provide introductory material for new-comers to the field that lead into up-to-date reviews that provide perspective on the wide range of questions that can be addressed by EPR.

Key Features:
-EPR Techniques including Saturation Recovery, ENDOR, ELDOR, and Saturation Transfer
-Instrumentation Innovations including Loop Gap Resonators, Rapid Mixing, and Time Locked Sub-Sampling
-Motion in Biological Membranes
-Applications to Structure Determination in Proteins
-Discussion of Trends in EPR Technology and Prognosis for the Future.
