The Instrumental Spectrometric and Spectroscopic Analysis of Amino Acids: A Handbook

This is the seventh in a series of textbooks which address the analysis of different classes of molecules using elemental data and infrared, mass and multinuclear spectra to determine the structures of many different classes of molecules. This book concentrates on fifteen of the twenty amino acids, both essential and non-essential.

Dr. Nick Winstone-Cooper studied chemistry and physics at Cardiff University before completing postgraduate research in nuclear chemistry, focusing on the creation of radioactive complexes of macrocyclic phosphines for application as heart and bone imaging agents in cancer diagnosis. He worked extensively in the United Kingdom, France, North America, Italy and the Republic of Korea before moving into education and education consultancy. Jasmine Tripconey studied Chemistry and Drug Discovery at the University of Bath. Her interests include the biochemistry of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and bioinorganic chemistry.
