Quite a few excellent books about vibrational spectroscopy have already been published. So why write a new one? The last years have seen the birth of new techniques and, first of all, a wealth of new applications. Therefore, a lot of new users need an introduction to these techniques and applications, but, if they are new to vibrational spectroscopy, an introduction to the parent techniques as well.

Vibrational spectroscopies can detect and analyze vibrations in molecules. Mainly two different forms are used today: Infrared and Raman spectroscopy.

Vibrational...

This volume discusses the latest mass spectrometry (MS)-based technologies for proteoform identification, characterization, and quantification. Some of the topics covered in this book include sample preparation, proteoform separation, proteoform gas-phase fragmentation, and bioinformatics tools for MS data analysis. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and...

This book delves into the anthropogenic activities responsible for environmental hazards, their compensation, and potential mitigation strategies. It sheds light on the major contributors to the climate change issues aggravated by non-sustainable practices for the overexploitation of natural resources. Critical topics such as high emissions in primary mining, the recovery of energy-critical metals by urban mining, solid waste management, and forest conservation are explored, offering insights into the urgent challenges we face.

Amidst the rapid demand for resources and the...

This book reviews different types of nanomaterials-based-conductive inks used to develop printed strain sensors, printing fabrication methods, and applications such as wearable health monitoring. Printed wearable electronic devices have recently drawn a lot of attention, as shown by the increasing number of publications and commercialized devices covering various facets in emerging fields. Many researchers are working toward optimizing nanoparticle-based-conductive inks for wearable electronics. However, issues related to its stability, dispersion, and annealing temperature often limit its...
