Applied Metallomics A groundbreaking survey of a field that unites the sciences The metallome of a cellular compartment, such as an enzyme, is the variety and arrangement of its metal ions. Metallomics is the multidisciplinary study of the metallome and its many important interactions with biological molecules and systems. It exists at the intersection of biochemistry and materials science, offering crucial insights into biological processes in which iron, for instance, plays a pivotal role. Applied Metallomics is an up-to-the-minute overview of research developments in metallomics, offering both analysis and applications in a vast array of scientific and industrial areas. Moving freely between material science, environmental science, health science, and more, it offers a comprehensive survey of this interdisciplinary research area. As the field of metallomics continues to develop and its applications expand, this book will only be a need of the hour Applied Metallomics readers will also find: Detailed treatment of nanometallomics, environmetallomics, agrometallomics, and many more Coverage of machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques with applications in metallomics An author team with vast international research experiences Applied Metallomics is ideal for researchers in many areas touched by metallomics, that include chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, bioinorganic chemistry, and more.

Quantification, Validation and Uncertainty in Analytical Sciences Companion guide explaining all processes in measuring uncertainty in quantitative analytical results Quantification, Validation and Uncertainty in Analytical Sciences provides basic and expert knowledge by building on the sequence of operations starting from the quantification in analytical sciences by defining the analyte and linking it to the calibration function. Proposing a comprehensive approach to MU (Measurement Uncertainty) estimation, it empowers the reader to apply Method Accuracy Profile (MAP) efficiently as a statistical tool in measuring uncertainty. The text elucidates several examples and template worksheets explaining the theoretical aspects of the procedure and includes novel method validation procedures that can accurately estimate the data obtained in measurements. It also enables the reader to provide practical insights to improve decision making by accurately evaluating and comparing different analytical methods. Brings together an interdisciplinary approach with statistical tools and algorithms applied in analytical chemistry and written by two international experts with long-standing experience in the field of Analytical measurements and Uncertainty, Quantification, Validation and Uncertainty in Analytical Sciences includes information on: The know-how of methods in an analytical laboratory, effective usage of a spurious measurement and methods to estimate errors. Quantification, calibration, precision, trueness, MAP addons, estimating MU for analytical sciences, and uncertainty functionsEmploying measurement uncertainty, sampling uncertainty, quantification limits, and sample conformity assessmentDecision making, uncertainty and standard addition method, and accuracy profile for method comparison Quantification, Validation and Uncertainty in Analytical Sciences is an ideal resource for every individual quantifying or studying analytes. With several chapters dedicated to MU's practical use in decision making demonstrating its advantages, the book is primarily intended for professional analysts, although researchers and students will also find it of interest.
