Bio- and Nano-sensing Technologies for Food Processing and Packaging
The importance of processing and packaging food items so that they are safe for the consumer cannot be underestimated. Sensors have an important role to play in this, and sensing technologies have attracted the attention of the scientific community in view of increasing environmental and societal concerns. This edited volume presents a collection of ten chapters discussing the current trends of bio- and nano-sensing technologies for processing and packaging of food items. Starting with an overview chapter which introduces the field, the book goes on to discuss novel applications related to preservation, authenticity and safety of foods. Intelligent food packaging and nano-based sensing are covered, and the book finishes with a look towards the pros and cons of how this will revolutionise sensing throughout the food sector. It will be of benefit to scientists and practising professionals conducting research in the areas of food processing, contamination and food safety, and academic researchers and graduate students studying food technology or food engineering.
Extremophiles in Eurasian Ecosystems: Ecology, Diversity, and Applications
This book explores various aspects of thermophilic and halophilic microbes from Eurasian ecosystems, which have proved to offer a unique reservoir of genetic diversity and biological source of extremophiles. It also covers the biotechnological uses of extremophiles, and their potential use in agricultural and industrial applications. The topics addressed include but are not limited to: diversity and microbial ecology, microbe-environment interactions, adaptation and evolution, element cycling and biotechnological applications of thermophiles and halophiles in Eurasian ecosystems. In order to review the progress made in biology and biotechnological applications of thermophiles and halophiles,...
Fruit and Vegetable Waste Utilization and Sustainability
Fruit and Vegetable Waste Utilization and Sustainability presents strategies to address the fruit and vegetable waste generated from agriculture and industrial processing. Beginning with the introduction of waste management, this book is divided into three sections. Section one addresses the valorization of fruit and vegetable waste for high-value products. Section two focuses on the techno-economic and environmental impact assessment of fruit and vegetable waste biorefinery through real-life examples of the life cycle assessment. Section three presents integrated biorefineries, policies, and case studies. This book is a valuable resource for food scientists, nutrition researchers, food industry professionals, academicians, and students in related fields. - Lists extensive definitions, case studies, and applications - Includes information on the integration of processes and technologies for biorefinery conceptualization - Addresses both agricultural and industrial fruit and vegetable waste
Food-Energy-Water Systems: Achieving Climate Resilience and Sustainable Development in the 21st Century
extreme weather will mean ongoing challenges to the capacity of these sectors to support human well-being, grow the economy, and provide critical environmental services. Society has yet to evaluate the resilience of FEWS to climate, environmental, and management stresses as it shapes strategies to support sustainable development over the next decades. These issues constitute a quintessential interdisciplinary research challenge and require a well-structured science agenda and supportive information services for implementing key findings that governments and stakeholders can adopt. Integrated policy pathways require usable research findings, applications, models, real-time information systems, and decision support systems. In addition, stakeholder engagement is essential to communicate the benefits and results of these approaches and to engage appropriate groups in their implementation.
Eco-architecture IV
Containing the proceedings of the latest in a series of conferences on the emerging topic of eco-architecture, this book presents the newest research in the field. Eco-architecture requires that buildings be in harmony with nature, including their immediate environs. Locations, siting and orientation, as well as the materials used, should be chosen based on ecological appropriateness. Practitioners make every effort to minimize the use of energy at each stage of a building's life cycle, including that embodied in the extraction and/or fabrication as well as the transportation of the materials used and their assembly into the building. There is even consideration given to the ease and value o...
Iran
Over the last few decades, Iranian architects have made a significant contribution to architectural design. This has, however, remained largely unrecognised internationally, as architects in Iran have had little exposure in publications abroad and the diaspora of well-known Iranian designers working in the West, such as Hariri & Hariri and Nader Tehrani of NADAAA, are not necessarily associated with their cultural background. Moreover Iran, or rather Persia, has one of the richest and longest architectural heritages, which has a great deal of untapped potential for contemporary design. The intention of this issue is both to introduce key works and key architects from a range of generations ...
Advances in Sintering Science and Technology
This issue of the Ceramic Transactions compiles 41 papers covering a rich diversity of the sintering science and technology topics. These papers were presented at the International Conference on Sintering, November 16-20, 2008 in La Jolla, California. The Ceramic Transactions series contains a collection of papers dealing with issues in both traditional ceramics (i.e., glass, whitewares, refractories, and porcelain enamel) and advanced ceramics. Topics covered in the area of advanced ceramic include bioceramics, nanomaterials, composites, solid oxide fuel cells, mechanical properties and structural design, advanced ceramic coatings, ceramic armor, porous ceramics, and more.
Nanozymology
This book introduces the new concept of “nanozyme”, which refers to nanomaterials with intrinsic enzymatic activity, rather than nanomaterials with biological enzymes incorporated on the surface. The book presents the cutting-edge advances in nanozyme, with emphasis on state-of-the-art applications in many important fields, such as in the biomedical fields and for environmental protection. The nanozyme is a totally new type of artificial enzyme and exhibits huge advantages over natural enzymes, including greater stability, low cost, versatility, simplicity, and suitability for industry. It is of interest to university researchers, R&D engineers, as well as graduate students in nanoscience and technology, and biology wishing to learn the core principles, methods, and the corresponding applications of “nanozyme”.

Cancer Vaccination and Challenges
Volume 1: Strategies for Therapeutic Cancer Vaccine Development deals with different strategies of cancer vaccine development, focusing on techniques for the development of therapeutic cancer vaccines and the roles of tumor antigens, proteins/peptides, microbial genes, and stem cells for the development of vaccines for cancer management. Volume 2: Delivery Strategies for Cancer Vaccine and Immunotherapy in Management of Various Carcinomas covers delivery strategies of cancer vaccines for the management of various forms of carcinoma, examining the prospects of delivering immuno-oncology therapies, focusing specifically on the effective drug delivery strategies for treatment of lung, prostate, and pancreatic carcinomas.
