Carotenoids: Handbook by George Britton (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Carotenoids by George Britton, Synnove Liaaen-Jensen, Hanspeter Pfander With the number of natural carotenoid structures reported rising above 700, there is a clear need for a single reference work containing data on all these compounds. For each compound, it provides selected key references and critically assessed information about natural occurrence and isolation, and spectroscopic data for identification. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Though the Handbook serves as a unique comprehensive reference book on the known carotenoids, it is designed to be used in conjunction with the Carotenoids series. The numbering of carotenoids in the Handbook is the same as that used throughout the Carotenoids volumes. The factual information and practical guidance given in this well received book series ideally complements the information given in the Handbook. It is highly advisable to be familiar with the general methods and precautions for handling carotenoids, and with the isolation and purification strategies and methods as described and evaluated in Vol. 1A, and the principles, application and interpretation of the spectroscopic techniques as described in Vol. 1B, to ensure that the identifications and analyses on which carotenoid work is based are accurate and reliable.

Review If you work with a lot of carotenoids, or simply need a good reference book containing fundamental data to help with laboratory work involving the isolation, quantitaion, or identification of carotenoids this is a tremendous reference. (Plant Science Bulletin) Long Description With the number of natural carotenoid structures reported rising above 700, there is a clear need for a single reference work containing data on all these compounds. This Handbook includes all natural carotenoids and common isolation artefacts for which structures have been assigned up to the end of 2001. For each compound, it provides selected key references and critically assessed information about natural occurrence and isolation, and spectroscopic data for identification. A standard full-page entry is given for each compound that has been characterised unambiguously, showing - Common name - IUPAC name - Structure, including stereochemistry, when assigned - Spectroscopic data: UV/Vis (with illustration); MS; CD; NMR (type and references) - Chemical synthesis (references) - Natural sources and outline of isolation procedure - Remarks, e.g. further spectroscopic data, stability, properties, derivatives - Selected key references Review Text If you work with a lot of carotenoids, or simply need a good reference book containing fundamental data to help with laboratory work involving the isolation, quantitaion, or identification of carotenoids this is a tremendous reference.
