Metal Ions in Biological Systems
Metal ions are currently used for such applications as diabetes, anti-inflammatory, rheumatoid arthritis, psychiatric, and anti-ulcer medications, using compounds of vanadium, copper and zinc, gold, lithium, and bismuth, respectively. This text explores these applications in addition to an assessment of chelation therapy, uses in environmental scie
The Publications of the Harleian Society
Includes reports, etc., of the Society.
Neurochemistry
Compiles 195 contributions from the June 1996 meeting. Part I (clinical aspects and pathology) discusses the role of neuroprotection and neurorescue in ischemia, stroke, and neuronal injury, as well as neurochemical mechanisms, mood disorders, and the significance of cerebrospinal fluid examinations for diagnosis and treatment. Part II (cellular functions) covers nutrient transport, energy metabolism, and metabolic trafficking in brain cells, and the role of neurotrophic molecules. Part III (molecules/methods) describes functional aspects of neuroactive compounds, with a special focus upon acetylocholine, taurine, amino acid neurotransmitters, and neuropeptides. Also discusses the role of lipid mediators, brain proteins, and new insights in methodology. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Exploration of Subsurface Antarctica
Our appreciation of glaciological processes in Antarctica suffers from a lack of observations in regions where numerical models indicate the ice sheet to be susceptible to ocean and/or atmospheric warming. The solution lies in the use and development of glacier geophysics. In this volume we present a series of papers that demonstrate how geophysics can be deployed in Antarctica to comprehend: (1) boundary conditions that influence ice flow such as subglacial topography, the distribution of basal water and ice-sheet rheology; (2) phenomena that might affect ice-flow processes, such as complex internal ice-sheet structures and the proposition of large stores of hitherto unappreciated groundwater; and (3) how glacigenic sediments and formerly glaciated terrain on, and surrounding, the continent can inform us about past ice-sheet dynamics. The volume also takes a historical view on developments leading to current knowledge, examines active ice-sheet processes, and points the way forward on how geophysics can advance quantitative understanding of Antarctic ice-sheet behaviour.

Gold Nanoparticles For Physics, Chemistry And Biology (Second Edition)
Gold Nanoparticles for Physics, Chemistry and Biology offers an overview of recent research into gold nanoparticles, covering their discovery, usage and contemporary practical applications.This Second Edition begins with a history of over 2000 years of the use of gold nanoparticles, with a review of the specific properties which make gold unique. Updated chapters include gold nanoparticle preparation methods, their plasmon resonance and thermo-optical properties, their catalytic properties and their future technological applications. New chapters have been included, and reveal the growing impact of plasmonics in research, with an introduction to quantum plasmonics, plasmon assisted catalysis...
Proteins as possible targets for antitumor metal complexes. Biophysical studies of their interactions
There is considerable interest today for the reactions of anticancer metallodrugs with proteins as these interactions might feature processes that are crucial for the biodistribution, the toxicity and even the mechanism of action of this important group of anticancer agents. Valuable structural and functional information on these adducts could be derived from several biophysical studies mainly relying on the application of X-ray diffraction and ESI MS techniques. The structural and functional information achieved on the respective metallodrug-protein adducts allowed us to identify some general trends in the reactivity of anticancer metallodrugs with protein targets.
Handbook of Chalcogen Chemistry
Provides an overview of the developments on the chemistry of the chalcogen group elements (S, Se and Te). Organised into two parts, this book deals systematically with the chemistry of chalcogens in relation to other group elements in the periodic table, and also includes an overview of metal-chalcogenides and metal-polychalcogenides.
