This new book discusses plant-derived bioactive compounds, covering their sources, biological effects, health benefits, and potential prevention and treatment properties for multifactorial diseases. It first describes in detail how encapsulation methods and plant-based materials may be used in a variety of ways, covering the concepts, advantages, and techniques for encapsulating bioactives based on cereals, spices, and coffee. The volume also looks at the functional aspects of plant-based foods and nutraceutical-based functional food design. The role of functional foods in food safety and industrial food safety issues and techniques for monitoring food quality and safety are also addressed.
This book disseminates the current knowledge of semiconductor physics and its applications across the scientific community. It is based on a biennial workshop that provides the participating research groups with a stimulating platform for interaction and collaboration with colleagues from the same scientific community. The book discusses the latest developments in the field of III-nitrides; materials & devices, compound semiconductors, VLSI technology, optoelectronics, sensors, photovoltaics, crystal growth, epitaxy and characterization, graphene and other 2D materials and organic semiconductors.
Globally, significant work has been done to enhance our current understanding of the nutritional and anti-nutritional properties, processing, storage, bioactivity, and product development of wheat, opening new frontiers for further improvement. Wheat Science: Nutritional and Anti-Nutritional Properties, Processing, Storage, Bioactivity, and Product Development addresses the topics associated with the advances in understanding the wheat biochemical, nutritional, and rheological quality. Improving crop varieties by either conventional breeding or transgenic methods to obtain nutritionally enhanced crops has the advantage of making a one-time investment in research and development to have susta...

Nurses are critical in the delivery of essential health services and are core in strengthening the health system. They bring people-centred care closer to the communities where they are needed most, thereby helping improve health outcomes and the overall cost-effectiveness of services. Communication skills for nurses are essential but may be difficult to master. Communication is the exchange of information between people by sending and receiving it through speaking, writing or by using any other medium. Nurses speak to people of varying educational, cultural and social backgrounds and must do so in an effective, caring and professional manner, especially when communicating with patients and ...
The objective of Home Science education is to integrate teaching, research and extension with linkages with the industry, the government and non-governmental organizations with an aim to work as a service industry for enhancing the quality of living. The College of Home Science ( ISO: 9000-2008 ) was established in 1971 as fifth constituent college of G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar. The college has a mission to fulfill its vision through development of a need based education and researches that would enable the students and research scholars to become active partners in the economic growth and development of the community i.e. the family, local society, nation or world. Besides the undergraduate and post-graduate programs, the college is also running PhD program in Clothing and Textiles, Family Resource Management and Foods and Nutrition. The post-graduate programmes have an interdisciplinary approach of education with a unique advisory committee system to guide students to take courses related to their area of interest. The departments of the college have well-equipped laboratories.
