This book covers all of the key biophysical techniques needed to characterize collagen mimic peptides such as CD, X-ray, NMR and fluorescence. It also elaborates how the thermal stability, structure, and dynamics, as well as quantitative information on collagen model peptides, are obtained. Pursuing a holistic approach, the book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, while emphasizing the potential applications of each technique in detail. This approach helps readers...
More Description
This book covers all of the key biophysical techniques needed to characterize collagen mimic peptides such as CD, X-ray, NMR and fluorescence. It also elaborates how the thermal stability, structure, and dynamics, as well as quantitative information on collagen model peptides, are obtained. Pursuing a holistic approach, the book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, while emphasizing the potential applications of each technique in detail. This approach helps readers from different disciplines recognize the essential aspects of and milestones in the biophysical techniques developed specifically for collagen peptides.
The book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in collagen, researchers investigating collagen function and diseases, and material scientists working on biomimetic materials.
