This edition is presented in a totally new and reader-friendly format. The focus of this volume is on holistic management of critically ill adult patients and it builds upon concepts one step at a time – allowing one the opportunity to develop competence at one's own pace.
Encouraging the incorporation of molecular biology techniques into the experimental approach to various toxicological problems, the format of the book is two-staged. Each chapter first introduces how various molecular techniques can be successfully applied to solving a specific toxicology question and proceeds to describe the techniques themselves. Also included is a discussion of the benefits and limitations of these techniques . This book will prove of value to practising researchers, but also to graduate students dealing with conceptual issues relating to molecular toxicology.
This book reveals key challenges to ensuring the secure and sustainable production and use of energy resources and provides corresponding solutions. This book covers the advanced technologies applied in renewable energy generation, energy storage, an alternative to petroleum fuels, waste to energy, solar energy, the impact of fossil fuel combustion on the environment, green buildings, social sustainability, etc. It goes beyond theory and describes practical challenges and solutions associated with energy and sustainability. This book is of particular interest to graduate students and academic or industrial researchers/professionals working in renewable energy, sustainability, bioenergy, and mechanical and automobile engineering. This book makes a forceful foundation for the establishment of the role of renewable energy in energy transition for a sustainable, cleaner, and greener future. This book is unique compared to other available books because it covers a wide variety of topics on a single platform.
Vols. for 1963- include as pt. 2 of the Jan. issue: Medical subject headings.

p="" This monograph focuses on recent development of nanomaterials and nanocomposites for pollution measurement and their control in water, air, and soil. The contents incorporate carbon-based, metal-based, and metal-organic framework based nanomaterials and nanocomposites for emerging contaminants (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) degradation, disinfection, and other traditional pollutants degradation and removal. The book also offers updated literature for researchers and academicians working in the field of environmental remediation by nanomaterials. Readers will learn about different metal and non-metal based nanoparticles for environmental remediation. It will be a useful guide for professionals, and post-graduate students involved in material science & engineering, chemical engineering and environmental nanotechnology research. ^
The Impact of Nanoparticles on Agriculture and Soil, part of the Nanomaterials-Plant Interaction series, contributes the most recent insights into understanding the cellular interactions of nanoparticles in an agricultural setting, focusing on current applications and means of evaluating future prospects. In order to ensure and improve the biosafety of nanoparticles, it is a primary concern to understand cellular bioprocess like nanomaterial's cellular uptake and their influence on cellular structural, functional and genetic components. This book addresses these and other important aspects in detail along with showcasing their applications in the area of agriculture. With an international te...
This book discusses the recent innovations in the development of various advanced biopolymeric systems, including gels, in situ gels, hydrogels, interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs), polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs), graft co-polymers, stimuli-responsive polymers, polymeric nanoparticles, nanocomposites, polymeric micelles, dendrimers, liposomes and scaffolds. It also examines their applications in drug delivery.
Arsenic has been said to be one of the world’s most toxic elements, infiltrating the food chain and finding its way into foods. Studies have recently detected high levels of arsenic in rice, which is a major concern since rice is a staple food for a large part of the world’s population. This new volume addresses this problem, covering arsenic contamination in rice and offering effective mitigation strategies.
