Applied Raman Spectroscopy

Applied Raman Spectroscopy: Concepts, Instrumentation, Chemometrics, and Life Science Applications synthesises the recent developments in the field to provide readers with an updated overview. The focus of this book is on the modern concepts of Raman spectroscopy technique, recent technological innovations, data analysis using chemometric methods, as well as the latest examples of life science applications relevant for academia and industries. The book will be beneficial to researchers from various branches of science and technology and will be intended to point them to modern techniques coupled with data analysis methods, which might be useful for their specific problems. It will also help instruct new readers about Raman spectroscopy and hyphenated Raman spectroscopic techniques, useful for the characterization of biomolecular systems and environmental samples. The book is primarily written for analytical and physical chemistry students and researchers at a more advanced level who require a broad introductory overview of the applications of Raman Spectroscopy, as well as those working in applied industry and clinical laboratories. Students, researchers, and industry workers in related fields including X-ray and materials science, agriculture, botany, molecular biology and biotechnology, mineralogy, energy, and environmental science will also find it to be of use.
