ESR expert joins the editorial board of Chemistry Central Journal
Professor Gareth R. Eaton,
John Evans professor in the department of chemistry and biochemistry at the university of Denver, Colorado, USA, has joined the editorial board of NMR, ESR and
NQR spectroscopy.
Prof Eaton is interested in numerous applications of electron spin resonance (ESR), including the
development of CW, pulsed and and rapid scan imaging
methodologies for in vivo applications. By measuring spin relaxation
times using pulsed ESR techniques, insights can be gained into molecular
dynamics, and measurements at multiple resonance frequencies can lead to the
assignment of reaction mechanisms. Other applications include studies on metalloenzymes, for instance in investigating the iron binding site in transferrin. He is also interested in the application of pulsed and CW ESR techniques in
measuring interspin distance as applied to spin-labelled
metmyoglobin and carbonic anhydrase, and other biomolecules
containing two unpaired electrons.
