Frontiers of Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2013
Selected Contributions from Bioanalytical Reviews

Here, renowned researchers in bioanalysis present in-depth reviews of recent trends in the field. Coverage includes topics such as aptamers, bioelectroanalysis, nanoparticles, quantitative NMR, mass spectrometry, immunosensors and -assays, or chiral electromigration techniques. Originally published in the journal Bioanalytical Reviews, these outstanding contributions are now available in a hardcover print format. This volume benefits in particular those research groups and libraries that have chosen to have only electronic access to the journal. It also provides valuable content for all researchers in bioanalytical science.
