Biomimetic Protein Based Elastomers

Elastomeric proteins are ubiquitous in nature, where they have evolved precise structures and properties that are necessary to perform specific biological roles and functions. This book emphasizes the impact of amino acid sequence on modulating protein structure, properties, and function. Examples include conformational ensemble dynamics, environmental responsiveness, self-assembly, physico-mechanical properties, morphology, and properties tailored for biomedical applications. This foundational framework is not only critical to advance scientific understanding and knowledge on elastomeric proteins but also enables the conceptualization, rational design, and development of biosynthetic elastomers and their analogous polypeptides for a variety of applications. Edited and contributed by pioneering researchers in the field, the book provides a timely overview of the materials, along with the synthesis techniques, the unique characteristics of elastomeric proteins, and biomedical and industrial applications. The book will provide a reference for graduate students and researchers interested in designing biomimetic proteins tailored for various functions.

Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy (In 2 Volumes)

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) utilizes photosensitizers (PS) together with irradiating light of specific wavelength interacting with oxygen to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species, in particular singlet oxygen, which has been approved for the clinical treatments of several malignant and non-malignant pathologies. Most recently, enhanced PDT was successfully achieved by using new light sources (i.e., light-emitting diode), novel functional nano-PSs, oxygen supply and synergistic therapy. In addition, PDT was widely used in the fields of antibacterial, antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities. The aim of this book is to highlight innovations in the fundamental mechanisms of enhanced PDT for clinical applications, and 20 papers published in the Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences during 2020-2023 were selected.

Prevention, Mitigation, and Relief of Compound and Chained Natural Hazards

At present, the intensification of global climate and environmental change has led to frequent occurrence of natural hazards. Various types of natural hazards always overlap and interact, or occur in a chain reaction, with a wide range of impacts and a long period of time, resulting in serious disaster losses. Typically, major earthquakes and geological hazards, extreme meteorological hazards, large-scale floods and droughts, marine disasters, and forest and grassland fires, as well as their compound and chained hazards are among the key factors affecting human life safety and world economic development. To better our understanding of disaster prevention, mitigation, and relief, it is thus p...

Proteomics of Spermatogenesis

Recent developments of experimental techniques in cellular and molecular biology have made it possible to understand the molecular biology of male gametogenesis in greater detail. This book focuses on the description of specialized proteins, which are dominantly and/or specifically expressed in germ cells and localized in spermatozoa. There is an urgent need to classify proteins of spermatogenic cells with a view of their functions, and their applications in the regulation of fertility and in understanding infertility. The understanding of structural properties of male germ cell specific proteins can offer vulnerable points for targeted intervention in testis without generalized effects on stages of spermatogenesis. Besides targeted action in male germ cells, sperm specific proteins and polypeptides may also offer potential application in the development of a contraceptive vaccine.

Metal–Organic Frameworks in Analytical Chemistry

One of the current research lines in analytical chemistry is the design and utilization of novel materials with higher selectivity and improved analytical performance in various steps of chemical analysis. In this sense, Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have attracted attention as a potential alternative to current commercially available materials. MOFs present an interesting set of properties, such as diverse structural topologies, modifiable pore size, high porosity, tuneable surface area, diverse composition, and versatile functionality. This book covers multipurpose usage MOFs in sample preparation, integration, and detection stages of analytical chemistry. Along with the application of MOFs in green analytical methodologies. It will serve as a reference book for researchers, scientists and engineers who are interested in developing new materials as well as researchers who are interested in new application development.
