It is now an established fact that laboratory animals play a very vital role in bio-chemical research particularly in the drug development programmes. The book Includes comprehensive and updated information on all the topics, which is presented in a precise manner in a simple language, which becomes easy for students to understand. Further, with the touch of personal communication of authors out of their enriched experience in profession, for considerable long time, the information becomes more educative and lucrative for students as well as for the teacheThe book contains information on pet animals and animal welfare and ethics.
This book introduces multidimensional scaling (MDS) and unfolding as data analysis techniques for applied researchers. MDS is used for the analysis of proximity data on a set of objects, representing the data as distances between points in a geometric space (usually of two dimensions). Unfolding is a related method that maps preference data (typically evaluative ratings of different persons on a set of objects) as distances between two sets of points (representing the persons and the objects, resp.). This second edition has been completely revised to reflect new developments and the coverage of unfolding has also been substantially expanded. Intended for applied researchers whose main intere...
The discovery of x-ray, as a landmark event, enabled us to see the "invisible," opening a new era in medical diagnostics. More importantly, it offered a unique undestanding around the interaction of electromagnetic signal with human tissue and the utility of its selective absorption, scattering, diffusion, and reflection as a tool for understanding
Michael Moore has established himself as someone who just won't shut up, go away, or otherwise do what political and corporate fat cats would like him to do. He lifts the veil on the people who set themselves up as role models and exposes their vulnerable underbellies.
Throughout most of history, medicinal plants and their active metabolites have represented a valuable source of compounds used to prevent and to cure several diseases. Interest in natural compounds is still high as they represent a source of novel biologically/pharmacologically active compounds. Due to their high structural diversity and complexity, they are interesting structural scaffolds that can offer promising candidates for the study of new drugs, functional foods, and food additives. Plant extracts are a highly complex mixture of compounds and qualitative and quantitative analyses are necessary to ensure their quality. Furthermore, greener methods of extraction and analysis are needed today. This book is based on articles submitted for publication in the Special Issue entitled “Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of Bioactive Natural Products” that collected original research and reviews on these topics.
Der Titel "Sprache als Form" indiziert eine zentrale Programmatik der wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten von Utz Maas, dem der vorliegende Band zum 60. Geburtstag gewidmet ist. Dieser Titel verweist zugleich auf die damit verbundenen Möglichkeiten der Übereinstimmung und des Dissenses. Der Band ist in vier Teile untergliedert. Unter der Überschrift "Sprachliche Form und Theorie" sind Beiträge versammelt, die Problemstellungen sprachwissenschaftlicher Theoriebildung behandeln. Teil II, "Formbildungen", enthält empiriebasierte Analysen sprachlicher Formbildungen und damit verbundener theoretischer Problemstellungen. Unter Teil III sind Beiträge gruppiert, die die "sprachliche Form im Medium der Schrift" zum Thema haben. Teil IV, "Ränder", schließlich nimmt solche Texte auf, die entsprechende Problemstellungen aus der Perspektive angrenzender Disziplinen behandeln.
Spectral, Photon Counting Computed Tomography is a comprehensive cover of the latest developments in the most prevalent imaging modality (x-ray computed tomography (CT)) in its latest incarnation: Spectral, Dual-Energy, and Photon Counting CT. Disadvantages of the conventional single-energy technique used by CT technology are that different materials cannot be distinguished and that the noise is larger. To address these problems, a novel spectral CT concept has been proposed. Spectral Dual-Energy CT (DE-CT) acquires two sets of spectral data, and Spectral Photon Counting CT (PC-CT) detects energy of x-ray photons to reveal additional material information of objects by using novel energy-sensitive, photon-counting detectors. The K-edge imaging may be a gateway for functional or molecular CT. The book covers detectors and electronics, image reconstruction methods, image quality assessments, a simulation tool, nanoparticle contrast agents, and clinical applications for spectral CT.
