The dynamic field of flavin and flavoprotein biochemistry has seen
rapid advancement in recent years. This comprehensive two volume
set provides an overview of all aspects of contemporary research in
this important class of enzymes. Topics treated include
flavoproteins involved in energy generation, signal transduction
and electron transfer (including respiration); oxygen activation by
flavoproteins; the biology and biochemistry of complex
flavoproteins; flavin and flavoprotein photochemistry/photophysics
as well as biotechnological applications of flavoproteins. Recent
developments in this field include new structures (including those
of large membrane-integral electron transfer complexes containing
FMN or FAD), elucidation of the role of flavoproteins in cell
signalling pathways (including both phototaxis and the circadian
cycle) and important new insights into the reaction mechanisms of
flavin-containing enzymes. This volume focussing on oxidases,
dehydrogenases and related systems is an essential reference for
all researchers in biochemistry, chemistry, photochemistry and
photophysics working on flavoenzymes.

This volume contains selected works from the 25th Anniversary of
the International Conference on Intracranial Pressure (ICP) held in
Williamsburg, Virginia. The theme of the meeting was Intracranial
Pressure and Neuromonitoring and focused on all the current state
of the art brain monitoring methodologies and their application to
brain injury. The brain monitoring techniques covered a wide
spectrum from neurochemical monitoring of the injured brain to
specialized techniques for assessing shunt function in normal
pressure hydrocephalus. It also includes the most recent advances
in monitoring of the brain oxygen levels using electrodes or the
less invasive Near Infrared Sprectroscopy devices. Controversial
issues regarding the management of ICP and CPP or both are also
addressed and there are several works dealing with this topic. Of
particular interest is the group of papers describing diagnosis and
outcome in normal pressure hydrocephalus. It is the first
compilation of papers which covers all the latest brain monitoring
studies in both ischemia, trauma and hydrocephalus. The manuscripts
in this volume have been selected from over 300 abstracts submitted
to this international symposium. The abstracts are also published
in order to provide the most comprehensive view of the progress
made in brain injury research.
