Advances in Immunopharmacology
With the publication of this third volume in the series, immunopharmacology has established itself as a separate discipline with relevance to oncology, rheumatology, allergy and other medical fields. The manipulation of the immune response is becoming the basis of all modern therapeutics. This volume gathers together symposia and workshop sessions, representing a comprehensive review of the advancing frontier of immunopharmacology.
Experimental Algorithms
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms, SEA 2010, held on Ischia Island, Naples, Italy, in May 2010. The 40 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 73 submissions. The topics covered include algorithm engineering, algorithmic libraries, algorithmic mechanism design, analysis of algorithms, algorithms for memory hierarchies, approximation techniques, bioinformatics, branch and bound algorithms, combinatorial and irregular problems, combinatorial structures and graphs, communication networks, complex networks, computational geometry, computational learning theory, computational optimization, computer systems, cryptography and security, data streams, data structures, distributed and parallel algorithms, evaluation of algorithms for realistic environments, experimental techniques and statistics, graph drawing, heuristics for combinatorial optimization
Biodegradation of Nitroaromatic Compounds and Explosives
Filled with practical applications and research, Biodegradation of Nitroaromatic Compounds and Explosives presents an international perspective on environmental contamination from explosives. It covers biodegradation strategies for DNT and a wide variety of other nitroaromatic compounds of environmental significance and makes the information access

Design and Analysis of Algorithms
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First Mediterranean Conference on Algorithms, MedAlg 2012, held in Kibbutz Ein Gedi, Israel, in December 2012. The 18 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 44 submissions. The conference papers focus on the design, engineering, theoretical and experimental performance analysis of algorithms for problems arising in different areas of computation. Topics covered include: communications networks, combinatorial optimization and approximation, parallel and distributed computing, computer systems and architecture, economics, game theory, social networks and the World Wide Web.
The Pharmacology of Lymphocytes
"Immunopharmacology" , why not "pharmacoimmunology"? Professor H. O. Schild University College London, 1962 An intact immune response is essential for survival, as is evidenced by the various innate immune deficiency syndromes and by the emergence of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) as a pandemic during the last decade. Substances which stimulate the immune response might contribute to the therapy of AIDS and its precursor, AIDS-related syndrome, as well as of other clinical conditions in which immune responses can be diminished, such as carcinoma and infections. In other circumstances, an intact or heightened immune response may pose clinical problems; hence there is need to suppress, or diminish, components of the immune response. For instance, it is necessary to impair cellular immunity in order to ensure lasting acceptance of heterografts and it is already established that agents effective in transplantation are therapeutically effective in an range of autoimmune diseases. More recently, experimental studies have indicated that aberrant manifestations of humoral immunity, as in allergies, may also be amenable to pharmacological intervention.

Influenza Vaccines for the Future
The threat constituted by the multiple outbreaks of avian influenza during the last few years is urgently calling for the development of new influenza vaccines. Fortunately, a quantum leap in technology has revolutionized the study of influenza and the engineering of new vaccine strains by reverse genetics. This volume provides a historical background and state-of-the-art information about the recent advances in the biology of influenza and the design of new influenza vaccines.
Complement
Activation of the complement system gives rise to a number of molecular species which can interact with host-derived cells and regulate their function. This interaction is mediated through distinct cell surface complement receptors, and receptor engagement produces biologic responses which can either modulate host defense reactions or enhance inflammation. Although the first complement receptor was recognized more than 30 years ago [80J, detailed biochemical information concerning the receptors has only recently become available. Currently, eight distinct complement receptors are recognized. Five receptors (CRl, CR2, CR3, C3a receptor, and C3e receptor) react with various regions on C3 while...
Biotechnology for the Environment: Soil Remediation
At the dawn of the 21st century, biotechnology is emerging as a key enabling technology for sustainable environmental protection and stewardship. Biotechnology for the Environment: Soil Remediation offers a state-of-the-art account of environmental biotechnology both in emerging and in more mature technological applications of soil remediation and cleanup of contaminated sites. Harnessing the potential of microorganisms and plants as eco-efficient and robust cleanup agents in a variety of practical situations is not only possible but is becoming widespread practice. Chapters are featured on current experience and trends in bioremediation of contaminated soil, life cycle assessment software t...
