More than 3500 articles are published directly in the field of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance every year, and the tool is widely used across many subject areas. Keeping up with the literature can be difficult, both in time and availability of journals. Specialist Periodical Reports provide comprehensive and critical reviews of the latest literature. With coverage over the last 12 months, the SPR on NMR is an essential reference for NMR specialists and applied scientists using this important tool. With contributions from leading workers across the globe, volume 41 of this established reference work includes several articles on nuclear shielding. Theoretical aspects of spin-spin couplings are also discussed in two articles, as is nuclear spin relaxation in gasses and liquids. Solid state NMR spectroscopy receives an in-depth review. NMR of proteins and nucleic acids are discussed in one chapter, and other chapter is dedicated to lipids and membranes. A further chapter overviews the use of NMR in living systems. Finally, synthetic macromolecules and liquid crystals each receive their own comprehensive reviews. To discover the latest developments in NMR, look no further than this Specialist Periodical Report. Purchase of the print edition includes online access from the Royal Society of Chemistry Publishing Platform.
