*Deadline Extended*
Spectroscopy is seeking contributed manuscripts for its August 2018 supplement on infrared (IR) spectroscopy, including far-infrared, mid-infrared, and near-infrared (NIR) techniques.
Manuscript Scope and Format
Articles may address fundamental issues in IR spectroscopy, recent advances in methods, or applications of IR methods.
Manuscripts should be approximately 2000–2500 words long, including an abstract of approximately 150–200 words, plus up to six figures and tables combined. Applications articles should follow a standard experimental article format. Figures and tables, along with their captions, should appear at the end of the manuscript, and figures also must be sent as separate files, preferably in JPG, TIF, PNG, PPT, or XLS format. References should be called out using numbers in parentheses and listed at the end of the manuscript in numerical order.
Submissions from equipment manufacturers will be considered but must be devoid of promotional content; discussions of new technology should not focus on a specific manufacturer’s instrument.
Deadlines:
Deadlines for this special issue have been extended to the following dates:
Due date for abstract submission: April 30, 2018
Due date for completed articles: June 22, 2018
Where to submit:
Send all proposals and completed articles to Editor Laura Bush, at laura.bush@ubm.com (tel. +1.732.346.3020).

FT-IR Analysis of pH and Xylitol Driven Conformational Changes of Ovalbumin–Amide VI Band Study
November 21st 2024This study uses Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to analyze how the globular protein ovalbumin's secondary structures transition under varying pH conditions in the presence of the cosolvent xylitol, highlighting the role of noncovalent interactions in these conformational changes.
