Summary

Resonance Energy Transfer: Theory and Data introduces and describes resonance energy transfer (RET) and some of its applications. It is written for the biochemist, biophysicist, or cell biologist who is interested in applying RET to study proteins, membranes, or other biological systems.
This book gives a clear, unified overview of the theoretical background of RET, and clarifies the basic concepts of florescence. It also serves as a handbook, providing a wealth of information on Forster distance, quantum yields, overlap intervals, and other spectroscopic parameters. A unique feature is the set of user-friendly tables that help the reader select the Donor-Acceptor pairs that are the most suitable for tackling the experimental problem at hand.
Resonance Energy Transfer offers a comprehensive theoretical treatment, up-to-date experimental data, and an extensive list of important references, making it an invaluable reference for those who wish to make full use of this powerful tool in physical, chemical, or biological research.
