Bentham Briefs in Biomedicine and Pharmacotherapy showcases the latest developments and techniques in the fields of pharmacology and healthcare, presenting them in distinctive volumes. Each volume offers a concise, focused overview of subjects, authored by experts in the field. The book series serves as an anthology for graduate students and researchers in pharmacology and life sciences, as well as medical professionals seeking specialization for research-related projects. The second volume, Botanicals and Natural Bioactives: Prevention and Treatment of Diseases, discusses the medicinal applications of natural bioactives in the treatment of a variety of physiological disorders, including car...
Bentham Briefs in Biomedicine and Pharmacotherapy brings new trends and techniques in pharmacology and medical biochemistry to the forefront through unique volumes. Each volume provides a brief review of selected topics, written by scientific experts. The book series is essential reading for graduate students and researchers in pharmacology and life sciences as well as medical professionals seeking knowledge for research oriented projects. The first volume, Oxidative Stress and Natural Antioxidants, is a compilation of articles about free radicals (which are extremely reactive, short-lived molecules with unpaired electron valency), and antioxidants (which are stabilizing agents of free radic...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2015, held in Mumbai, India, in January 2015. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics including program verification, model checking, abstract interpretation, abstract domains, program synthesis, static analysis, deductive methods, program certification, error diagnosis, program transformation, and hybrid and cyberphysical systems.
The comprehensive information about the inverse relationship between the incidence of cancer and the consumption of natural food has impacted our understanding of the biochemical mechanisms behind cancer and its treatment. Functional Foods for Health Maintenance: Understanding their Role in Cancer Prevention is a review of pre-clinical studies unraveling the chemotherapeutic potential of phytochemicals and other food sources. The editors attempt to summarize the evidence, methods and techniques for identifying specific nutraceuticals and foods capable of interfering and reducing the risk of cancer. The book compiles 19 edited chapters that cover the chemopreventive effects of different phytochemicals, animal and stem cell models for cancer prevention, and novel nanotechnology-based nutraceuticals. The contributors have also highlighted the techniques employed for the detection of cancer with a review on cancer biomarkers. The book is a resource for post-graduate students and researchers working in the field of nutrition, molecular biology, chemoprevention, biochemistry and pharmaceutical sciences.
This is a long-needed general introduction to the physics and chemistry of the liquid-vapor phase transition of metals. Physicists and physical chemists have made great strides understanding the basic principles involved, and engineers have discovered a wide variety of new uses for fluid metals. Yet there has been no book that brings together the latest ideas and findings in the field or that bridges the conceptual gap between the condensed-matter physics relevant to a dense metallic liquid and the molecular chemistry relevant to a dilute atomic vapor. Friedrich Hensel and William Warren seek to change that here. They draw on cutting-edge research and data from carefully selected fluid-metal...
Microfluidics deals with the behaviour, precise control and manipulation of fluids that are geometrically constrained to a small, typically sub-millimetre, scale. It is a multidisciplinary field intersecting engineering, physics, chemistry, microtechnology and biotechnology, with practical applications to the design of systems in which such small volumes of fluids will be used. This book presents topical data on microfluidics such as the application of microfluidic principles for the creation of tandem capillary electrophoresis chip devices with electrochemiluminscent detection techniques; microbiochips monolithically integrated with microfluidics; analysis of the electroosmotic flow of power-law fluids in a slit channel; microfluidic valves without diaphragms and others.
A unified overview of the dynamical properties of water and its unique and diverse role in biological and chemical processes.
