Toxicological Risk Assessment and Multi-System Health Impacts from Exposure
Toxicological Risk Assessment and Multisystem Health Impacts From Exposure highlights the emerging problems of human and environmental health attributable to cumulative and multiple sources of long-term exposure to environmental toxicants. The book describes the cellular, biological, immunological, endocrinologic, genetic, and epigenetic effects of long-term exposure. It examines how the combined exposure to nanomaterials, metals, pharmaceuticals, multifrequency radiation, dietary mycotoxins, and pesticides accelerates ecotoxicity in humans, animals, plants, and the larger environment. The book goes on to also offer insights into mixture risk assessments, protocols for evaluating the risks, ...
Bio#Futures
This volume presents a timely recognition, warning and mapping of the fast approaching wave, or “bio-tsunami”, of global socio-technical transformation, built by a much wider spectrum of converging powers, including biotechnology, new agriculture, novel foods, health, quality of life, environment, energy, sustainability, education, knowledge management, and design of smart applications. The book contains eight sections corresponding to different clusters of bioeconomic and socio-technical change, as identified by the editors’ “Scanning the Horizon” foresight research; it also offers an integrated view of the future bioeconomy landscape though the convergence of several technologies that affect everyday life. The clusters offer methodologies for forecasting the future bioeconomy, and how these predictions can affect target-setting and the orientation of policies and actions to manage cultural and societal change, and achieve sustainable development in less developed areas. The book will be of interest to researchers, producers, logistics experts, policy makers, regulators, business and financial institutions, and biotechnologists (e.g. geneticists, food experts, etc.).
Flash Memories
Flash memories and memory systems are key resources for the development of electronic products implementing converging technologies or exploiting solid-state memory disks. This book illustrates state-of-the-art technologies and research studies on Flash memories. Topics in modeling, design, programming, and materials for memories are covered along with real application examples.
Silicon Nanophotonics
Nanoscale materials are showing great promise in various optoelectronics applications, especially the fast-developing fields of optical communication and optical computers. With silicon as the leading material for microelectronics, the integration of optical functions into silicon technology is a very important challenge. This book concentrates on
Molecular Electronics
This consistent and comprehensive text is unique in providing an informed insight into molecular electronics by contrasting the prospects for molecular scale electronics with the continuing development of the inorganic semiconductor industry. Providing a wealth of information on the subject from background material to possible applications, Molecular Electronics contains all the need to know information in one easily accessible place. Speculation about future developments has also been included to give the whole picture of this increasingly popular and important topic.
Telomeres
This book provides a comprehensive overview of aging and its mechanisms through the prism of telomere length and its link to lifestyle parameters and environmental pollutants, diseases where telomere length attrition is prominent, and therapeutic approaches to slow down or prevent the process of telomere length reduction. It also provides an extensive comparison of the methodology for telomere length determination and characterization. The book will help researchers in any discipline to obtain an in-depth and broad knowledge of the most recent advances in telomere research written by specialists in the field. It is also addressed to the readers interested in gaining an insight into the processes of aging and those factors that affect “graceful” aging, enabling them to extract even useful tips in improving their everyday habits.
Serum Metabolites in Diagnostics and Therapeutics
Metabolomics can critically assess key metabolic pathways and thus provide data for nutritional deficiencies, metabolic imbalance, environmental burden, and the gut microbiome. Since the metabolite functions are not determined by epigenetic regulation or post-translational modification, quantification and evaluation of metabolites is an highly effective method to capture time-dependent fluctuations and cellular metabolic state, even prior to disease onset. Blood serum is a primary carrier of small molecules in the body, present in the blood of every tissue and organ in the body. It plays a critical role in transporting dissolved gases, nutrients, hormones and metabolic wastes, as well as in the regulation of the pH and ion composition of interstitial fluids, the restriction of fluid losses at injury sites and the defence against toxins and pathogens.
Charge-Trapping Non-Volatile Memories
This book describes the basic technologies and operation principles of charge-trapping non-volatile memories. The authors explain the device physics of each device architecture and provide a concrete description of the materials involved as well as the fundamental properties of the technology. Modern material properties used as charge-trapping layers, for new applications are introduced.
Nested Ecologies
"Functional medicine is a personalized and holistic approach to healing chronic disease. It can be an alternative to conventional care, or work in combination with it, but the idea is to go beyond treating verifiable symptoms and try to understand each person's unique biology and address all of the interrelated causes of their disease. FM practitioners may prescribe changes to diet as well as drugs, informed as much by gut microbes and DNA testing as lab results. Functional medicine is a growing segment of health care, one worth studying and especially so because there are no other books on the topic. However, Rosalynn Vega's research into FM began when she was seeking more effective treatment for her own struggles with chronic disease. As she puts it in a preface, "it was my training as a medical anthropologist that saved me...This book is the story of how I used ethnography as the primary tool in my recovery.""--
