New Special Issue "Biochemical Thermodynamics"

Dear Colleagues,

Advances in instrumentation and in methodology have led to substantial progress in biophysical measurements in a wide variety of biochemical and biological systems. Yet, each system has its distinct measurement issues that require careful attention in terms of experimental design, implementation, and data analysis in order to obtain accurate property values. These property values are of importance in a wide variety of applications, such as understanding binding phenomena, calculating optimal product yields, and understanding energy utilization in living systems. Moreover, the fact that the Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropy are state functions enables the calculation of many thermodynamic properties for substances where direct measurements have not been performed. This Special Issue will reflect the wide variety of experimental and theoretical methods that lead to thermodynamic properties of substances or systems of biochemical interest or that use thermodynamic property values to solve interesting problems. One aim of this Special Issue is to highlight unsolved and important problems in the aforementioned areas.
