Spectral analysis is an intricate field that holds the key to understanding a wide range of phenomena across science and engineering. "ADVANCED SPECTRAL ANALYSIS (MPC 201T)" is a comprehensive exploration of this subject, aimed at providing both beginners and experienced practitioners with a deep and practical understanding of spectral analysis techniques. This book is the culmination of extensive research, countless hours of analysis, and the collaboration of numerous experts in the field. It is our intention to bridge the gap between theory and application, offering readers a valuable resource that can be applied to real-world challenges. Throughout these pages, you will find a structured journey into the world of spectral analysis. We delve into the fundamental concepts, mathematical foundations, and advanced techniques, all with the aim of enabling you to make informed and insightful decisions when dealing with spectral data. This knowledge is not just for academics and researchers; it is for engineers, scientists, and anyone seeking a deeper appreciation of the spectral realm. Our approach is to combine theory with practical examples, providing step-by-step guidance on applying spectral analysis to a multitude of scenarios. We believe in demystifying the complex and making the abstract accessible. In this ever-evolving field, our commitment to the reader is to provide a resource that remains relevant and up-to-date. Spectral analysis is not just a subject; it's a living and dynamic field, and we invite you to embark on this journey of discovery with us. We extend our sincere gratitude to all those who have contributed to this endeavor, from researchers and experts to friends and family, whose support and encouragement have been invaluable. This book would not have been possible without your collective efforts.

Modern Methods of Steroid Analysis reviews modern methods of steroid analysis such as liquid column chromatography, mass spectrometry, and gas chromatography. Topics covered include qualitative and quantitative analysis of plant sterols by gas-liquid chromatography; Raman spectroscopy of steroids; nuclear magnetic resonance; and applications of lanthanide shift reagents. A computerized method for rapid comparison and retrieval of infrared spectral data is also described. This volume is comprised of 22 chapters and begins with an analysis of hormonal steroids using liquid column chromatography, followed by a discussion on the separation of insect molting hormones using high-pressure liquid chromatography. The reader is methodically introduced to the application of gradient elution and thin-layer chromatography to the analysis of corticosteroids and 17-ketosteroids, as well as some aspects of mass spectrometry in steroid analysis. Subsequent chapters explore other methods such as optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism, along with radioisotope techniques. In particular, the radioimmunoassay of plasma steroid hormones and plasma aldosterone is considered. This book should be of interest to biochemists.
