Plant Peroxidases: Biochemistry and Physiology recoge los últimos avances en el campo de las peroxidasas vegetales. Las peroxidasas son un grupo de enzimas que se encuentran ampliamente distribuidas en toda la escala filogenética y catalizan la oxidación de un amplio número de sustratos orgánicos e inorgánicos, utilizando el poder oxidante del peróxido de hidrógeno. Además de su interés académico y fisiológico, estas enzimas son ampliamente utilizadas en laboratorios clínicos y en la industria. El presente libro consta de 47 artículos de investigaciónen en los que se tratan diversos aspectos de las peroxidasas como su estructura, enzimología genética, fisiología, localización y aplicaciones. Las aportaciones a este libro han sido realizadas por especialistas de todo el mundo que se reunieron en Murcia en el año 2002 durante el Congreso titulado VI International Plant Peroxidase Symposium

Surfactants are essential for a wide variety of biotechnological applications in areas of food, cosmetics, household cleaning products, agriculture, oil recovery, and environmental remediation. Despite great progress, there remain opportunities for research on metabolic engineering and bioproduction of microbial biosurfactants in terms of process efficiency and diversity of available compounds. Moreover, with the increasing demand for renewable, biodegradable ingredients, research must focus on improving the sustainability of surfactants and the shift away from sulfate-based and other non-renewable surfactants.
This book presents numerous uses of biosurfactants as potential alternatives to synthetic surfactants in food, textile, biomedical and therapeutic applications as well as in bioremediation and waste management. Divided into four parts, the book explores a wide range of biosurfactants as sustainable materials, starting with an overview of biosurfactants’ production, in which readers will find topics such as characterization, purification, sustainable production, biodegradation, and cytotoxic aspects of biosurfactants. Part 2 presents the latest applications of biosurfactants in food and textile industries, as well as their application in nanoparticle synthesis, heavy metal remediation, drug...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th Ada-Europe International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies, Ada-Europe 2012, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in June 2012. The revised 15 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 34 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on application frameworks, use of ada, modeling, testing and validation,and real-time systems.
Epigenetics is a new field that explains gene expression at the chromatin structure and organization level. Three principal epigenetic mechanisms are known and hundreds of combinations among them can develop different phenotypic characteristics. DNA methylation, histone modifications and small RNAs have been identified, and their functions are being studied in order to understand the mechanisms of interaction and regulation among the different biological processes in plants. Although, fundamental epigenetic mechanisms in crop plants are beginning to be elucidated, the comprehension of the different epigenetic mechanisms, by which plant gene regulation and phenotype are modified, is a major t...
