During the recent times, there occured a tremendous phenomenon in the field of Science. It is the growing awareness of the importance of Oriental Medicine, notably the so called acupuncture, in America, Europe and countries all over the world. Acupunture, as a field of medicine, poses a fundametal problem. It embraces a lot of complexities which must first have a through knowledge of meridians and acupuncutre points. Moreover, there is a need for them to have a complete understanding of all the acupunture parts in the human body. These can not bo acquired, however, in just a day's time. Like any other field of specialization, it demands a continuous practice of learning and relearing. In thi...

The aim and scope of this book is to review current information on human development and processes of differentiation that have benefited from breakthrough analyses in stem cell biology, elucidation of genome and gene architecture and aspects of regulation of gene expression, analysis of signaling systems and transcription factor actions.Insights into actions of specific genes and their roles in development have been gathered through studies in patients with specific birth defects, including congenital malformations, metabolic defects and functional impairments.The book is organized into three sections, the first dealing with aspects of genomics, gene structure and regulation, analysis of signaling and function of specific organelles. The second section deals with molecular aspects of development of specific organs and structures such as, bone, face, brain, heart, liver, pancreas, kidney. The last section deals with specific malformations and tumors that provide insight into regulation of growth. Environmental factors that impact growth and development are also covered.
Sustainable agriculture is a rapidly growing field aiming at producing food and energy in a sustainable way for humans and their children. Sustainable agriculture is a discipline that addresses current issues such as climate change, increasing food and fuel prices, poor-nation starvation, rich-nation obesity, water pollution, soil erosion, fertility loss, pest control, and biodiversity depletion. Novel solutions are proposed based on integrated knowledge from sciences as diverse as agronomy, soil science, molecular biology, chemistry, toxicology, ecology, economy, philosophy and social sciences. Because actual society issues are now intertwined, global, and fast-developing, sustainable agriculture will bring solutions to build a safer world. This book series gathers review articles that analyze current agricultural issues and knowledge, then propose alternative solutions. It will therefore help all scientists, decision-makers, professors, farmers and politicians who wish to build a safe agriculture, energy and food system for future generations.
High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a technique used in diverse laboratory and industrial settings for the separation of components of complex mixtures. HPLC: Practical and Industrial Applications is a trouble-shooting, problem-solving guide for scientists, engineers, and technicians who use HPLC in their day-to-day work. It provides the answers to specific problems and includes practical case studies. This case history approach to chromatography is an effective teaching tool and clearly illustrates how to use techniques such as reversed phase chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, gel permeation chromatography, and capillary electrophoresis. The book is organized to facil...
