There is a continuing demand for the application of electrochemical sensors with a good quality/cost performance not only in comparison to sensors based on other transducer mechanisms but also to some standard analytical methods. Electrochemical Sensor Analysis (ECSA) presents novel theoretical considerations along with detailed applications of electrochemical (bio)sensors. The combination of both theoretical and practical aspects provides a comprehensive forum that integrates interdisciplinary research and development, presenting the most recent advances in applications in various important areas related to everyday life. Additionally ECSA reflects that electrochemical sensor analysis is already a well established research and applied area of analytical chemistry. 

Using this calculation scheme, we have found the frequency dependencies a(v) and s"(v) for ordinary (H20) water at two temperatures. Figure 24 demonstrates for water a qualitative agreement in the calculated and experimental spectra in a very wide frequency band, comprising the microwave Debye relaxation region and the FIR range. This advance in application of the... 

Interaction of nanomaterials with native cells is an important problem in modem life science. Recent progress in mass spectrometry provides a vital tool to study this problem. Advances in applications of mass spectrometry for investigating the interaction of nanoparticles with cell membranes and biomacromolecules are based on at least two methods. The first is matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI),1 and the second is temperature-programmed desorption mass spectrometry (TPD MS), newly developed to study the interaction of nanoparticles with a cell surface.2 ... 

The progress in the determination of porosity of various types of materials has arisen over the past ten years from advances in application of new spectroscopy techniques. In the present paper the application of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), positronium annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) and low temperature nitrogen adsorption methods to the characterization of mesoporosity is reviewed using different types of silica gels with chemically modified surface. The results from the three methods are compared and discussed. 

After a decade, it seems appropriate to begin this report by identifying the key advances in applications and in theory over the past decade before turning to the primary purpose of this present report which is to review the literature for the period June, 2005, to May, 2007.

It is a great pleasure for me to introduce volume 44 of Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy and to welcome my longstanding co-worker, Professor I. Ando of the Tokyo Institute of Technology as co-editor. This is another in the series of special issues of Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy and covers advances in applications of NMR to materials science, an area previously visited in volume 28 of this series. Three quite distinct topics are included in this volume, namely Applications of NMR Spectroscopy to the Structure and Ionic Aggregates of lonomers by H. Yoshimizu and Y. Tsujita, Applications of NMR Techniques to Coal Science by K. Saito, K. Kanehashi and I. Komaki and An NMR Study of Strongly Correlated Superconductors by K. Asayama, Y. Kitaoka, G-q. Zheng, K. Ishida and Y. Tokunaga. 

Here we have presented a review of selected investigations of the fiillerene species where computational methods were especially productive and have attempted to elucidate prospective directions for fiiture researches. Interestingly, when the interest in fiillerenes seems to decrease, there always appear new topics which maintain the continuing interests of scientists. Such milestones have been the discovery of superconductivity, carbon nanotubes, and recent advances in applications of fiillerene-based materials in nanotechnology. 

Advances in applications of microarrays are varied and include SNP detection, gene analysis, DNA cleavage, fingerprinting, combinatorial decoding of nucleic acids, nucleic acid quantification, nucleic acid amplification and purification. Methods for the synthesis of PNA microarrays have also been reported. ...

Jarman-Smith [33] discusses the increasing use of PEEK as a replacement for metal and ceramics in a variety of medical and surgical applications. He provides an overview of the properties of this material, as well as of some of its newest applications. Topics discussed include advances in applications for the spine, advances in joint replacement, advances in trauma applications, advances in craniomaxillofacial applications, extending the properties of PEEK, and, options beyond using metal and ceramics.

Although advances in applications of rare earth endohedral metallofiillerenes are being made, there is a lack of toxicology data for endohedral Mlerenes. This might not slow advances in device applications, but the toxicology will have to be evaluated before any practical advances in biological applications can be made. 

This text both looks forward, with advances in application of new ideas and materials to objects, and backwards to past treatments. It is based primarily on published information that can be verified, so is limited to sources available to the author. Suggestions from readers of significant omissions or errors have been valuable in expanding the sources used.

These two ASCE manuals remain the best source for the structural use of plastics, although there have been many advances in applications since they were written fe.g., with the use of carbon fiber-bonded plates for strengthening bridges), but such applications can be traced through conference and journal papers.
