Free Radicals in Chemistry and Biology

Free Radicals in Chemistry and Biology





Elementary radical reactions are described in terms of fundamental knowledge of organic chemistry and chemical physics in this valuable reference text. The complex radical processes of nonchain and chain mechanisms, such as dimerization, alkylation, polymerization, telomerization, halogenation pyrolysis, oxidation and combustion, are complemented by reactions in chemical lasers and in the cosmos, as well as by reactions in biological objects under normal or pathological metabolism. The text also provides the synthesis of facts from various fields of research and involves mechanisms where free radicals appear either as main or side intermediates in one of the several alternatives of the reaction pathway. Highlights include 38 tables and 39 figures.

Campbell Biology with MasteringBiology® (9th Edition)

Helping Students Make Connections Across Biology

 

Campbell BIOLOGY is the unsurpassed leader in introductory biology. The text’s hallmark valuesâ€"accuracy, currency, and passion for teaching and learningâ€"have made it the most successful college introductory biology book for eight consecutive editions.

 

Building on the Key Concepts chapter framework of previous editions, Campbell BIOLOGY, Ninth Edition helps students keep sight of the “big picture” by encouraging them to:

• Make connections across chapters in the text, from molecules to ecosystems, with new Make Connections Questions
• Make connections between classroom learning, research breakthroughs, and the real world with new Impact Figures
• Make connections to the overarching theme of evolution in every chapter with new Evolution sections
• Make connections at a higher cognitive level through new Summary of Key Concepts Questions and Write About a Theme Questions
• Make connections outside of class with MasteringBiology^®, the most widely-used online assessment and tutorial program for biology
