Metal Ions in Biological Systems Volume 22: Endor: EPR, and Electron Spin Echo for Probing Coordination Spheres
This volume focuses on the physical methods to probe the coordination sphere of metal ions in biological systems, which are based on para-magnetic species, namely, the electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and electron spin echo (ESE) techniques.
