Studies in Natural Products Chemistry, Volume 14: Stereoselective Synthesis, Part I is a collection of discourses on the stereoselective synthesis of the anticancer anthrucycline antibiotics; tetramic acid antibiotics; 3-and 4-deoxyhexoses; polysaccharides; levoglucosenone as precursor to natural products; synthesis of oligoribonucleotides; and oxidation of guaiazulene. This volume deals with a broad range of natural products focusing on the synthesis of antibiotics and anticancer agents — anthracyclines, tetramic acid, taxodione, vinblastine, and vincristine. These aforementioned drugs are used for the treatment of cancer (anthracyclines) and Hodgkin's disease and childhood acute leukemia...
All volumes cover reviews on highly topical areas of electrochemical research and cover areas of both fundamental and practical importance. The result is a compelling set of reviews which serves equally well as an excellent and up-to-date source of information for experienced researchers active in the field as well as an introduction for newcomers. Series founders: Heinz Gerischer, Charles W. Tobias, Richard C. Alkire, Dieter M. Kolb
This book joins and integrates ceramics and ceramic-based materials in various sectors of technology. A major imperative is to extract scientific information on joining and integration response of real, as well as model, material systems currently in a developmental stage. This book envisions integration in its broadest sense as a fundamental enabling technology at multiple length scales that span the macro, millimeter, micrometer and nanometer ranges. Consequently, the book addresses integration issues in such diverse areas as space power and propulsion, thermoelectric power generation, solar energy, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), multi-chip modules, prosthetic devices, and implanted biosensors and stimulators. The engineering challenge of designing and manufacturing complex structural, functional, and smart components and devices for the above applications from smaller, geometrically simpler units requires innovative development of new integration technology and skillful adaptation of existing technology.
By typing into databases such as Medline or PubMed the word lipoprotein one gets more than 100.000 hits that highlight the common interest in this topic. It is actually impossible to cover all aspects of lipoprotein structure, function, metabolism and pathophysiology in one issue like the present volume, but attempts have been made to concentrate on topics that are in focus of current lipoprotein research. These topics have been divided into 10 sections. This volume will help new investigators in the field to get acquainted with the general topic of lipoprotein research and will guide scientists interested in this area to emerging new fields.
In 24 contributed chapters, 37 international specialists describe the latest developments in research on snake venom including different types of venoms and toxins, actions, antidotes, and applications and summarize what is known to date on Gila monster and frog toxins. Some 70 tables provide essent
A guided tour through the each stages of process, Kansei/Affective Engineering explores how to apply Kansei/Affective Engineering. It describes the psychological survey and psycho-physiological measurement of consumer feelings and the multivariate statistical analysis of this survey data, including rough set models.

Molecular Genetics of Cancer, Second Edition provides an authoritative and up to date review of the key genes known to be critical in the development or progression of cancer. Throughout the book, scientific advances and their clinical relevance are covered in detail, particularly in the light of findings concerning the inheritance of genes predisposing to tumorigenesis. The book is therefore a valuable source of reference for clinicians and genetic counsellors as well as researchers.
Since the first volume was published, there has been significant success in isolating genes responsible for particular cancers as well as a major improvement in our understanding of the molecular events leading to tumors. This book explores possible genetic treatments that can suppress cancer cells that have formed tumors and it presents the details of the isolation and characterization of new human cancer genes that have recently been identified. Molecular Genetics of Cancer, 2E is an essential book for anyone involved in cancer research and the search for a cure.
