The book compiles the latest studies on microorganisms thriving in extreme conditions. Microbes have been found in extremely high and low temperatures, highly acidic to saline conditions, from deserts to the Dead sea, from hot-springs to underwater hydrothermal vents- the diversity is incredible. The various chapters highlight the microbial life and describe the mechanisms of tolerance to these harsh conditions, and show how an understanding of these phenomena can help us exploit the microbes in biotechnology. The theme of the book is highly significant since life in these environments can give vital clues about the origin and evolution of life on earth, as a lot of these conditions simulate the environment present billions of years ago. Additionally, the study of adaptation and survival of organisms in such environments can be important for finding life on other planets. This book shall be useful for students, researchers and course instructors interested in evolution, microbial adaptations and ecology in varied environments.
This book provides a detailed overview of the progress and challenges of non-traditional approaches for tackling antimicrobial resistance. The first chapter covers the factors that make microbes more likely to develop multidrug resistance. The book goes on to discuss the antimicrobial properties of propolis, essential oils and other microbial constituents that are used or under investigation to treat multidrug-resistant infections. Additionally, it covers alternative compounds that work as antimicrobial agents, their mechanisms of action, and how they might be utilized in conjunction with conventional drugs to circumvent drug resistance. The book explores the application of phage therapy and...
Combination Therapy against Multidrug Resistance explores the potential of combination therapy as an efficient strategy to combat multi-drug resistance. Multidrug resistance (MDR) occurs when microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites are excessively exposed to antimicrobial drugs such as antibiotics, antifungals, or antivirals, and in response the microorganism undergoes mutations or develops different resistance mechanisms to combat the drug for its survival. MDR is becoming an increasingly serious problem in both developed and developing nations. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics has developed faster than the production of new antibiotics, making bacterial infections...
The completion of this book has given us immense joy and contentment after huge, comprehensive, and demanding efforts. It was a challenge for all of us to compile the advanced knowledge that would be vital for all the enthusiasts of biology and other streams of life sciences. The book "Emerging Trends in Life Sciences" is intended to provide most of the knowledge of recent emerging trends in various topics of Biosciences. It contains 15 chapters from well-known researchers and academicians in their respective fields. The various aspects covered in this book include Plant Science, Agriculture, and Environment. The book is an effort to address various topics related to biology and streams of life sciences in a way that actually makes sense and is easy to understand. This book provides scattered knowledge and literature in compiled form.

The international conference will provide an opportunity to the practicing engineers, academicians, researchers, and students to meet in a forum to discuss various issues in Power Electronics, Intelligent Control and Energy Systems In view of the changing scenario, the conference aims to put together the experts from these areas to disseminate their knowledge and experience for working towards soft computing techniques, electronics and energy sustainability in the years to come The conference will spark innovative ideas, foster research relations or partnerships between the various institutions and build strong research and development community
If India looks forward to its 75th year of Independence, it is also looking at 75 years of the country's partition. Perhaps the biggest human tragedy of the twentieth century, it was marked by unparalleled violence that was suppressed by interested parties for their own political and ideological reasons. In the analysis of the real factors that led to Partition lies the lesson to protect India's unity and integrity, as exemplified by the relentless but unsuccessful attempt by Veer Savarkar to prevent the birth of Pakistan. Arguably the greatest symbol of India's national integration, Savarkar's warnings on the threats to India's security have come true in the past seven decades. Veer Savarka...
