New E-Resources at Northwestern

Pure and Applied Chemistry

Pure and Applied Chemistry is the official monthly Journal of IUPAC, with responsibility for publishing works arising from those international scientific events and projects that are sponsored and undertaken by the Union. The policy is to publish highly topical and credible works at the forefront of all aspects of pure and applied chemistry, and the attendant goal is to promote widespread acceptance of the Journal as an authoritative and indispensable holding in academic and institutional libraries. – Publisher’s blurb.

Handbook of Hetergeneous Catalysis

With almost 200 expert articles in 8 parts, Handbook of Heterogenous Catalysis provides easily searchable yet comprehensive information.  This new edition takes into account the latest developments in the field , making it the most up-to-date compendium in heterogeneous catalysis. – Publisher’s blurb.

Metallomics : Integrated Biometal Science

Metallomics: Integrated biometal science, is a new interdisciplinary journal for scientists seeking to understand the role of metals in biological, clinical and environmental systems. – Publisher’s blurb.

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces

American Chemical Society Applied Materials & Interfaces is being launched with the goal of becoming the international publication of choice for the interdisciplinary community of chemists, engineers, physicists and biologists focusing on how newly-discovered materials and interfacial processes can be developed and used for specific applications. The journal will publish full length articles and letters from researchers in academia and industry in addition to featuring comments and forums dedicated to advancing applied materials research. – Publisher’s blurb.

Integrative Biology

Integrative Biology is a unique venue for elucidating biological processes, mechanisms and phenomena through quantitative enabling technologies at the convergence of biology with physics, chemistry, engineering, imaging and informatics. – Publisher’s blurb.

Handbook of Metalloproteins

The Handbook of Metalloproteins covers a number of metals, including iron, nickel, manganese, cobalt, copper and vanadium, and provides detailed information on proteins found in the redox-inactive ions of zinc and calcium. It includes comprehensive coverage for each metalloprotein.

Energy & Environmental Science

Energy and Environmental Science is a new journal linking all aspects of the chemical sciences relating to energy conversion and storage, alternative fuel technologies and environmental science.

The journal recognises the complexity of issues and challenges relating to energy and environmental science and therefore particularly welcomes work of an interdisciplinary nature across both the (bio) chemical sciences and chemical engineering disciplines.
