Population-based cancer registries across the world represent an important source of information on cancer incidence; these are used for many purposes, including a region-wise comparison of trends for different types of cancers and for generating hypotheses. Among the available statistics for studying cancer trends, the most valuable data is of ‘incidence rate’ that comes from recording every case of cancer in a defined geography in a specified time. But there is a downside in relying on published incidence rates from cancer registries. Namely, the published rates are not only determined by the real underlying cancer incidence rates, but also on such regional phenomena as access to diagnostic services/practices in the medical communities, quality and completeness of reporting of cancer diagnoses to the local cancer registries, quality of the cancer registry itself, and data management systems. These methodological aspects can vary from country to country and can even vary within countries.
Nanomaterials from Renewable Resources for Emerging Applications details developments in nanomaterials produced from renewable materials and their usage in food and packaging, energy conservation, and environmental applications. • Introduces fundamentals of nanomaterials from renewable resources, including processing and characterization. • Covers nanomaterials for applications in food and packaging, including nanocellulose, lignin- and chitosan-based nanomaterials, and nanostarch. • Discusses applications in energy conservation, such as supercapacitors, electrolyte membranes, energy storage devices, and insulation. • Describes environmental uses such as water remediation and purification and oil spill clean-ups. • Highlights advantages and challenges in commercialization of green nanoparticle-based materials.
