Overview

Chemical and Biochemical Approaches for the Study of Anesthetic Function, Part B, Volume 603, presents a coherent description of the campaign towards understanding anesthesia. It includes a variety of highly debated topics, including sections on computational approaches, best practices for simulating ligand-gated ion channels interacting with general anesthetics, computational approaches for studying voltage-gated ion channels modulation by general anesthetics, anesthetic parameterization, the kinetic modeling of electrophysiology data, evolving biophysical technologies, fluorescent anesthetics, lipids, membranes and pressure reversal, in vivo technologies, and more.

Highlights

- Helps readers understand the wide array of topics surrounding anesthesia

- Includes sections on Pharmacophore QSAR, QM, ONIOM, and the kinetic modeling of electrophysiology data

- Broaches genetics, model organisms and general genetic strategies
