Description: This reference examines the role played by partial charge transfer in biology, not only in biomolecules but also in biological systems, furnishing a comprehensive theoretical basis for the physics and chemistry of charge transfer complex formation, focusing on the function of excited states and chaos theory, and suggesting new ways for the synthesis of pharmaceutical products with reduced side effects.

Discussing drug interactions in detail and highlighting interactions between different types of antibiotics, Charge Transfer Complexes in Biological Systems explains charge transfer methods in electrochemistry...electropharmacology...physicochemistry...membrane biology and physics...microbiology...neurobiology...microevolution...and more.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
