One of the most difficult challenges a music theoretician faces, be it historically, philosophically or in other aspects, is that of correctly and precisely framing the meaning that music has in a specific moment: deducing the “why” and revealing the secret hidden within. The book Pure and Programme Music in the Romanticism, a rigorous and indispensable study to understand music in the period in which music as an expression of feelings, begins to reach the threshold of the sublime —primarily focusing attention on what pure and programme music represent. Both types of music are instrumental, but the difference between them is that the first one, pure music, exists on its own, and for it...
In recent years, there has been an increase in the concern of society and industries about how food and beverages are produced, the production of natural compounds as well as the concern of industries on fermentation-based processes. Thus, there are several approaches worldwide that are looking for low time and low cost fermentation-based processes integrating not only molecular biology procedures but also engineering. This book contains eleven chapters written by international experts in the field of fermentation. It covers all recent aspects on fermentation-based processes with potential applications in many fields such as bio combustible production, food and beverage processing, and biomedicine.
Supercharge your immune system with natural and low-cost strategies that are scientifically proven. If you want to naturally and safely boost your immunity with proven natural antibiotics, this book is for you. The immune system is an ongoing cooperation of our body’s biochemistry and trillions of bacteria and yeasts living inside and outside our body – often called our microbiome. The bacteria in our body surpasses the number of our cells by more than tenfold. This also means our microorganisms are powerful players in our immune system. If our microbiome is not up to par, our immune system’s ability to respond to infections and diseases is handicapped. Utilizing over 1,000 scientific studies, this book updates our knowledge on how our real immune system works and what we can do to boost it. The text covers numerous strategies including probiotics, herbs, superfoods, diet and lifestyle strategies been proven to increase our immunity and help our bodies fight today’s host of diseases, including COVID-19 (and long COVID). In this book you will learn how the immune system works, and how it can be easily supercharged using hundreds of low-cost and effective strategies.
Nanofertilizer Delivery, Effects and Application Methods explores the science of nutrient nanoformulation, a potential tool toward sustainable and climate-sensitive crops.Wide-spread use of chemical fertilizers has been shown to causes significant damage to soil structure, mineral cycles, soil microbial flora, plants, and creating human health risk both immediately and for future generations. Through methods that include targeted distribution, and gradual or controlled release, nanostructured fertilizers can improve nutrient usage efficiency. According to recent studies, through environmental cues and biological demands, nano-fertilizers can respond to specifical challenges, and boost agricu...
Large-scale chemical fertilizer application causes irreparable damage to soil structure, mineral cycles, soil microbial flora, plants, and other food chains across ecosystems, culminating in heritable mutations in future generations of consumers. A better way forward is the use of nanofertilizers to focus on macro elements (N, P, K), as switching to nanofertilizers may result in large environmental benefits by replacing the majority of these nutrients. Furthermore, the biosynthesis of nanomaterials using bacteria, algae, yeast, fungus, actinomycetes, and plants has opened up a new avenue of research in the production of inorganic nanoparticles as ecologically friendly fertilizers. Nanofertil...
