Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS) is forecast to become a key measurement technology in drug design and discovery. This review focuses on what the technology is, why it is superior to existing technologies and how it may be expected to develop for drug discovery applications.
