Book excerpt: When a spec ops pilot is framed for a deadly attack around an alien star, he must track an assassin to recover the stolen material-before his own navy hunts him down. "intricate, action packed and ambitious." - Publisher's Weekly BookLife Prize _________________________________ First, they stole his identity. Now, they want him dead. Shadow Recon pilot Micah Case awakens above an alien world, with no memory of his past and a mysterious voice inside his head. Worse, his own military is hunting him... and he has no idea why. His genetic code could destroy all life. The voice leads to a discovery so unbelievable, enemy nations would kill to control it - to control him. Now, Micah must use every skill in his arsenal to secure the stolen research. The stakes are impossibly high, but failure is not an option. The alternative could mean the extinction of a people Micah can no longer call his own: Humanity. With THE CHIRAL AGENT, author L.L. Richman brings you a fast-paced, cerebral thriller that's part hard science fiction, part spy novel, and one hundred percent adrenaline. It's sure to keep you guessing every step of the way.

Now, they want him dead. Micah Case is one of the Geminate Navy's elite pilots. He's flown into enemy space countless times. When his spacecraft disintegrates around him above an alien world, Micah awakens with no memory of his past, and with a mysterious voice inside his head. His genetic code contains the power to destroy all life. Hunted by his own military for reasons yet unclear, Micah must embark on a desperate journey to find the unknown voice. What he finds sends him on a mission more harrowing than any he's ever flown. The stakes are impossibly high, but failure is not an option. The alternative would mean the extinction of a species he can no longer call his own: Humanity. The Chiral Agent is the first book in the new Biogenesis War series. The adventure continues with The Chiral Protocol. Read the backstory of the events that led up to this book in the prequel, The Chiral Conspiracy, available now on Amazon.com in paperback and in Kindle Unlimited.

This book was released on 2007-04-13 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive overview of the use of NMR spectroscopy for chiral discrimination Discrimination of Chiral Compounds Using NMR Spectroscopy concisely covers the broad array of reagents that make it possible to determine the optical purity and assign the absolute configuration of many classes of compounds. It describes chiral NMR derivatizing agents, solvating agents, metal-based reagents, and liquid crystals and discusses the range and types of compounds for which they can be used for analysis. After an overview of chiral reagents and methodologies, this reference: * Includes comprehensive coverage of the chiral reagents that have been reported * Catalogs the range of compounds for which different reagents have been shown to be effective * Includes specialty categories such as liquid crystals, ionic liquids, and the formation of chiral aggregates from achiral building blocks that do not fit into the broader categories * Offers experimental strategies for using the reagents that are likely to improve the quality of the results This guide describes the various systems and their overall utility, but goes further to show the full scope of the field as a way of guiding investigations into the optimal chiral reagents for use in NMR spectroscopy. It's a practical reference for organic chemists in the pharmaceutical industry, academia, and other areas, NMR spectroscopists, and researchers involved in the isolation and structure determination of natural products.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chirogenesis in Chemical Science is an exciting new book that takes readers inside the world of chirality and chirogenesis, guided by Victor Borovkov and Riina Aav, both internationally renowned experts on chirality. Chirality is a fundamental property of the universe and has significance in different organic/inorganic materials, living organisms, and human beings. The basic principle of chirality is existence of an object in two mirror image forms, which are not superimposable. This phenomenon is widely seen in various fields of knowledge including mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemistry, biology and ranging in scale from galaxies to nuclear particles.In chemical science, chirality is generally associated with a single molecule or group of molecules, which symmetry properties belonging to the Cn or Dn point groups with the simplest example of sp3 carbon atom bonded to four different substituents. The dynamic processes of chirality generation, modulation, transfer, amplification, etc. are termed chirogenesis.This is a fast-growing and interdisciplinary field of research, which is widely seen in many natural systems (such as DNA double helix, the secondary alpha-helix structure of proteins, lipid membranes, saccharides, heme proteins, and other biological molecular objects) and various artificial systems. It is of prime importance not only for fundamental science but also for a number of practical applications in such areas as pharmacology and agrochemistry, perfumery and food industry, materials and polymer sciences, enantioselective catalysis and nonlinear optics, nanoscience and nanotechnology, molecular devices and chemical sensors, and others. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms and various influencing factors is of particular significance for smart control and further effective application of chirogenesis in chemistry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selection of the HPLC Method in Chemical Analysis serves as a practical guide to users of high-performance liquid chromatography and provides criteria for method selection, development, and validation. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is the most common analytical technique currently practiced in chemistry. However, the process of finding the appropriate information for a particular analytical project requires significant effort and pre-existent knowledge in the field. Further, sorting through the wealth of published data and literature takes both time and effort away from the critical aspects of HPLC method selection. For the first time, a systematic approach for sorting through the available information and reviewing critically the up-to-date progress in HPLC for selecting a specific analysis is available in a single book. Selection of the HPLC Method in Chemical Analysis is an inclusive go-to reference for HPLC method selection, development, and validation. Addresses the various aspects of practice and instrumentation needed to obtain reliable HPLC analysis results Leads researchers to the best choice of an HPLC method from the overabundance of information existent in the field Provides criteria for HPLC method selection, development, and validation Authored by world-renowned HPLC experts who have more than 60 years of combined experience in the field
