The experimental and theoretical investigation of nuclei far from the valley of beta-stability is the main subject of modern nuclear structure research. Although the most successful nuclear structure models are purely phenomenological, they nevertheless exploit basic properties of QCD at low energies. This book focuses on the current efforts to bridge the gap between phenomenology and the principles derived from QCD using the extended density functional approach which is based on the successful DFT methods to tackle similarly complex interacting systems in molecular and condensed matter physics. Conceived as a series of pedagogical lectures, this volume addresses researchers in the field as well as postgraduate students and non-specialized scientists from related areas who seek a high-level but accessible introduction to the subject.
Aptamers for Food Applications: Safety, Authenticity, and Integrity outlines the main applications of aptamers to ensure food safety, quality and compliance that are crucial for food science, public health and human sustainability. Aptamers or aptamer-based analytical devices are comprehensively summarized to tackle various food contamination or food adulteration problems. Topics covered in this book include aptamers for foodborne microbial pathogens, pesticide or veterinary drug residues, heavy metals, biotoxins, abused food additives, illegal food adulterants, POPs, GMOs, food allergens and food contact material migrants. It is therefore of interest for not only analytical investigators and food safety inspectors, but also regulatory practitioners and risk assessors in various food science and research fields. - Presents the versatilities of aptamers for food safety, quality and compliance - Provides utilities of aptamers for the analysis of almost all risk factors in foodstuffs - Includes food quality control and regulatory measures such as HACCP, MRLs, proficiency test and uncertainty assessment, along with case illustrations
This volume shares and makes accessible new research lines and recent results in several branches of theoretical and mathematical physics, among them Quantum Optics, Coherent States, Integrable Systems, SUSY Quantum Mechanics, and Mathematical Methods in Physics. In addition to a selection of the contributions presented at the "6th International Workshop on New Challenges in Quantum Mechanics: Integrability and Supersymmetry", held in Valladolid, Spain, 27-30 June 2017, several high quality contributions from other authors are also included. The conference gathered 60 participants from many countries working in different fields of Theoretical Physics, and was dedicated to Prof. Véronique Hussin—an internationally recognized expert in many branches of Mathematical Physics who has been making remarkable contributions to this field since the 1980s. The reader will find interesting reviews on the main topics from internationally recognized experts in each field, as well as other original contributions, all of which deal with recent applications or discoveries in the aforementioned areas.
This volume is a collection of the contributions to the 13th National Conference on Nuclear Structure in China (NSC2010).

The design and fabrication of aptamer-based biosensors for point-of-care testing of disease diagnostic and prognostic is an upthrust and interdisciplinary area of research. This book covers the design and development of novel cost-effective aptamer-based biosensors for disease diagnostic and prognostic including an understanding of health care management in terms of timely updates of disease situations in a particular geographical area. It also discusses the scaling up and market trend of aptamer-based devices for extension of research from lab to market, and end users. Features: Explains the design and fabrication of aptasensors-based diagnostic devices. Includes novel approaches and compre...
Projections for advances in medical and biological technology will transform medical care and treatment. This in great part is due to the result of the interaction and collaboration between medical sciences and engineering. These advances will result in substantial progress in health care and in the quality of life of the population. Frequently however, the implications of technologies in terms of increasing recurrent costs, additional required support services, change in medical practice and training needs are underestimated. As a result, the widespread irrational use of te- nologies leads to a wastage of scarce resources and weakens health systems performance. To avoid such problems, a sys...
