Introduction to Protein Mass Spectrometry

Introduction to Protein Mass Spectrometry provides a comprehensive overview of this increasingly important, yet complex, analytical technique. Unlike many other methods which automatically yield an absolutely unique protein name as output, protein mass spectrometry generally requires a deduction of protein identity from determination of peptide fragmentation products. This book enables readers to both understand, and appreciate, how determinations about protein identity from mass spectrometric data are made. Coverage begins with the technical basics, including preparations, instruments, and spectrometric analysis of peptides and proteins, before exploring applied use in biological applications, bioinformatics, database, and software resources. Citing the most recent and relevant work in the field of biological mass spectrometry, the book is written for researchers and scientists new to the field, but is also an ideal resource for those hoping to hone their analytical abilities.

This is the first book to present the principles of operation of both the Paul and Penning ion traps - powerful experimental devices in which charged particles can be confined indefinitely in a small region of space so that experiments may be performed on them. This new and exciting method has applications not only in atomic physics, frequency standards, and collisional studies, but also in analytical mass spectrometry, making this book highly relevant not only to physicists but also to chemists. Written by a leading authority in the field, it is unique in bringing together detailed information on these two traps, and contains an outstanding bibliography which provides a historical overview to the development of the field.

This book documents and analyzes current trends in the industrialization and industrial development of Third World countries, and evaluates the progress they have made in the past decade in attaining the long term objectives of sustained economic growth and improvement in the quality of life for future generations. Fourteen articles present current international issues and trends affecting industrialization in Third World development, analytical methods, strategies and policies for industrial development, and selected Third World country studies. Statistical information, an annotated bibliography of books, documents, periodical articles published since 1970, and a directory of sources are also provided.

Urban Development in the Third World: (International Development Resource Books)

For the developing countries to take advantage of the accumulated and growing body of scientific and technological information, they must develop competence in choosing technology through an institutionalized technology policy. Third World experiences in developing and implementing technology policies are documented and analyzed in this volume. Issues such as the values shaping technology, selection of appropriate technology, technology transfer, technological self-reliance, planning, and development control are discussed in detail. Ideas for future policy development are evaluated.

The development of effective health, food, and nutrition policies are essential to the rapid economic and social development of Third World countries. The essays in this volume cover basic issues such as development of the food supply, health care programs, the human environment, nutrition and malnutrition, the politics of food scarcity, and the impact of health and nutrition on the economy.

Planning for economic and social progress has made considerable headway in the developing countries during the past two decades. Although the record shows a wide array of improvements by historical standards, many of the poorest countries and peoples remain untouched by progress. The seventeen articles collected in the first part of this resource book discuss fundamental issues and concerns such as the expansion and diversification of the production of goods and services, increasing employment opportunities, improving the level and distribution of income, eliminating poverty, increasing self-reliance, and mobilizing natural, human, and financial resources for nation-building.

Economic Policy and Planning in Third World Development (International Development Resource Books)

Financial resources of the magnitude, form, and character necessary to support changes in the structure of production in developing countries are essential for progress toward a new, more equitable international economic order. Inadequacies in the current monetary and financial system contribute to the underutilization of resources productive to developing countries and to the maintainence of economic imbalance. This volume demonstrates the need for a systematic attack on the acute problems of poverty and underdevelopment. It provides background information and data for those directly involved in the formulation of development theory and the implementation of development policy. The theory developed and practical experience discussed in these essays provide valuable perspectives on the continuing efforts to realign the international economic order.

Financial aid given or loaned to developing countries for their accelerated economic and social progress is a key element of international development cooperation. Many complex questions are raised by these external assistance programs. The size of the credit line from donor or lender countries and the terms on which these countries provide the funds are issues of primary concern. The rational and equitable distribution of foreign aid has gained new importance because of the recent weak economic conditions of developed countries and the widely varying social and political conditions prevailing in the Third World. Eleven articles document and analyze current aid distribution policies and the development needs of recipient countries. The conclusions reached in these articles provide a basis for a new and sharper focus on aid to developing countries.
