Neurotoxicity
Neurotoxins are natural or chemical compounds that can disturb the neurological system of mammals. The neurotoxic potential of a neurotoxin is a consequence that may occur if tissue concentrations surpass a particular threshold. Chemicals disrupt adult brain function by interfering with the structure and function of various neuronal pathways, circuits, and systems in diverse ways. Neurotoxicity - New Advances provides updated information about neurotoxicity and neurotoxic chemicals including nanomaterials and pesticides. It also discusses prevention and treatment strategies. This book is an instructive and valuable guide to understanding neurotoxicity and identifying neurotoxicity mechanisms and neurotoxic disorders.
Migration, Prostitution and Human Trafficking
"Migration, Prostitution, and Human Trafficking examines the nature, magnitude, and gravity of prostitution and sex trafficking--and the relationship between them--in contemporary China. By researching the backgrounds, circumstances, and other factors that drive Chinese women to migrate to Shenzhen, China, Liu hopes to shed light on the underlying reasons for their entry into the sex industry."
Exploring the Key Targets and Compounds That Manipulate Brain Neurocircuits Against Mental Disorders and Psychiatric
With the development of brain science, modulating neural circuits and brain networks is increasingly being considered a treatment for neurological disorders. Neurological disorders can be precisely alleviated or reversed using optogenetic techniques and analysis of neural circuits, and this also illustrates the shortcomings of traditional pharmacological manners that target single molecular targets, such as GABA receptors with anti-anxiety and 5-HT receptors with antidepressants. While traditional psychotropic drugs are generally developed based on a single molecular target, modulating neural circuits and neural networks by neuropharmacology approaches is a challenge that pharmacology must focus on and cope with in the future.
Food Plants of China
The food plants of an area provide the material basis for the survival of its population, and furnish inspiring stimuli for cultural development. There are two parts in this book. Part 1 introduces the cultural aspects of Chinese food plants and the spread of Chinese culinary culture to the world. It also describes how the botanical and cultural information was acquired; what plants have been selected by the Chinese people for food; how these foodstuffs are produced, preserved, and prepared; and what the western societies can learn from Chinese practices. Part 2 provides the botanical identification of the plant kingdom for the esculents used in China as food and/or as beverage. The plants are illustrated with line drawings or composite photographic plates. This book is useful not only as a text for general reading, but also as a work reference. Naturally, it would be a useful addition to the general collection of any library.
Mechanical Thrombectomy and Development of Thrombectomy Devices
Today, mechanical thrombectomy plays an essential role in treating stroke related to major vessel occlusion. The device technology has been evolving in the past decade from the first-generation device of clot retriever (Merci Clot Retrieval System) to stent retrievers and aspiration catheters. With the quality of aspiration catheters improving every year, the treatment strategy has been changing dramatically. Therefore, to improve the efficacy and safety of the new generation devices, preclinical evaluation of the prototype devices using experimental models under the imaging guidance becomes crucial. Various experimental models have been proposed by investigators for the simulation of mechanical thrombectomy. For instance, patient-specific silicon models based on the 3D reconstruction of vessel segments, clinically-representative artificial clot models with various compositional and mechanical features, e.g. (fibrin rich clot, erythrocyte rich clot or mixture of each), and animal models using swine, ovine and canine.
Non-Conventional Starch Sources
Non-Conventional Starch Sources: Properties, Functionality, and Applications presents the use of non-conventional, unutilized, and underutilized sources to isolate, characterize and functionalize starches. Specific attention is paid to the sources' application in foods as well as their incorporation into packaging through films and coatings. Broken into seven sections, this book addresses sources from fruit seeds, cereals and millets, pseudo-cereals, seeds, roots and tubers, rhizome and legumes. Food scientists, technologists and students and researchers studying related fields will benefit from this important reference. - Presents chapters with a set of specific sections, including an intro...
