Review articles and tables

The Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data has published a series of tables of line frequencies, absorption intensities and molecular constants for selected molecules, particularly also those of interest in astrophysics. Some species of paramagnetic and ionic character are also included. The series started in 1972 and is continuing [08Ily]. Useful tables may also be found in recent web publications [lOCol, lOJPL], 

Molecular constants fiom infrared spectroscopic data are currently published in Landolt-Bomstein New Series volume 11/20. 

Some books treating recent developments in high-resolution spectroscopy are listed in section 8, [1... 8].

The greatest area of applications of this type of ECL has been in the analysis of pharmaceutical compounds with amine functionality. The reader is directed toward the previously mentioned review articles and Table 1 for further details [12, 14-16], Many methods have also been successfully applied to real samples in the form of body fluids or pharmaceutical preparations, although sample pretreatment such as deproteinization, centrifugation, and neutralization followed by a chromatographic step to remove interfering species is often required. Limits of detection are typically in the range 10-9—10 12 M. Figure 4 shows examples of some classes of pharmaceutical compounds that have been determined by Ru(bpy)32+ ECL.

There are many ways in which electromagnetic waves can interact with matter in its condensed phases, liquid and solid. Some of these have been treated with simple models in Chapter 9, and examples are given in this chapter. Lest we leave the reader with an oversimplified view of optical constants we list in Table 10.2 several absorption mechanisms in solids together with the spectral regions in which they are important. References, primarily review articles and monographs, are also included to guide the reader in further study. 

Salmonella and Listeria are a source of numerous food borne illness. As a result, a lot of attention has been focused on these microorganisms. The effort in the Salmonella area focused on obtaining antibodies which can detect several serotypes (14-16, 61,64, 90) and shortening the assay time from 3-4 days to 1-2 days by use of more sensitive formats and enrichment protocols (74, 75, 91,92). Numerous immunoassay kits for Salmonella were developed, such as the Salmonella-Tek (74, 75), Tecra Salmonella (93) and Bio-Enza Bead (94), to name a few. More information on kits is given in section 2.9. Additional information is available for Salmonella, Listeria and other microbiological contaminants and toxins (see Table 1) in review articles and books (5, 7,11-13, 88,95-99). 

Lack of space did not permit us to cover this field completely however, in order to offer the reader a wider coverage of this subject matter, two tables listing important review articles and papers dealing with carbasugars, not discussed in the text, have been included in the final section of this account. 

No claim is made to anything approaching completeness in the matter of references to the scientific literature. Such ref( r( iices as are gi en an generally to the more recent publications, to review articles, and to papers that may, for one reason or another, have some special interest. References are also frequently included to indicate the sources from which data have been obtained for many of the diagrams and tables. Since no effort was made to be exhaustive in this connection, it was felt that an author index would be misleading. This has consequently been... 

The properties of complex metal hydrides, particularly those of aluminum, and their use in organic synthesis have been compared in a number of papers, review articles and monographs. " ° Useful tables, listing the most appropriate hydride reagents for selective reduction of various polyfunctional compounds, have been published. " Use of chiral metal alkoxyaluminum hydride complexes in asymmetric synthesis has also been reviewed. ... 

Since the preparation of the article (G G), there have been numerous review articles on some of the reactions, appearing in the literature. In Table II (Table numbers coincide with the Section numbers) a list of these review articles and the reactions discussed are given. As seen in this table, the topic of oscillations has been expanding such that these reviews, although limited in scope, attest to the world wide interest in oscillatory chemical reactions. 

Many compounds have now been used as template molecules in molecular imprinting. Basically, imprinted polymers can be used directly as separation media. Since all separation applications cannot be described here, some studies recently reported are bsted in Table 7.1. In this chapter, only selected topics, including sensor applications, signaling polymers, molecularly imprinted sorbent assays, molecularly imprinted membranes, affinity-based solid phase extraction, in situ preparation of imprinted polymers, and molecularly imprinted catalysts are discussed. For the reader requiring information on other applications, there are many review articles dealing with these, Recent review articles and books are summarized in Table 7.1. For further development of molecular imprinting techniques, newly designed functional monomers would be desirable. Various functional monomers have been reported and many applications have been conducted. These are summarized in Table 7.2. 

This section briefly summarizes the characteristics of DNA-binding proteins from a structural point of view. Here, we are interested mainly in those aspects responsible for the binding to DNA. Several review articles and book chapters describe the architecture of such proteins and the three-dimensional structures of protein-DNA complexes in some detail [109-112], Table 18.2 lists the protein-DNA complexes for which X-ray crystal structures have been determined. In all of these DNA is found in the B-conformation. 

According to our experience the productivity numbers obtained with the aforementioned microorganisms can be enhanced by the use of catalytic concentrations (0.5-2 mM) of artificial electron mediators. Their properties and aspects of their use have been described in a review article (6). Table 1 lists some mediators with their redox potentials. 

With the recent advancement in the pharmaceutical technology, new and innovative techniques are being employed in the fabrication of polymeric nano/microparticles (Table 57.3). A number of review articles and chapters describing various aspects of particle preparation and characterization have been published in the last few decades. - Hence we are outlining some of the techniques used in the preparation of particles, which are also used for oral peptide delivery. Particles are prepared mainly by two processes. The first process is the in situ polymerization of monomer through suitable polymerization process to yield polymeric particulates. The second process is based on the dispersion of well-characterized preformed polymers of synthetic or natural origin using a suitable technique (Scheme 57.2). 

A selected list of thermochemical databases, review articles, and monographs is presented in Tables 2 and 3. The comments included in these tables are intended as a guide to find data and to avoid thermochemical inconsistencies.
