This volume details various interesting aspects of pharmaceutical biotechnology. Some of the contributions here focus on nano-biotechnological aspects of cancer and its detection as nanotechnology is one of the most popular areas of research today. Chapters also discuss biosensors in the area of pharmacology and will serve as a guide for the study of various types of biosensors and their mode of action. The book also considers topics such as pharmacogenetics and nutrigenetics, keeping in mind the recent advancement in biomedical science. Its critical discussion of current research references to molecular pharmacology and molecular biotechnology will allow the reader to decipher the interplay between diet, drugs, and genetic factors for improving human health. The book will be of interest to professional researchers, under-graduate and post-graduate students, and professors, as well as industry practitioners.

Lee, Chan and their contributors analyse the different kinds of soft power deployed by Taiwan in its bid to strengthen its relations with its neighbours in Southeast Asia. Despite not having formal diplomatic relations with Southeast Asian countries after their diplomatic recognition of the People’s Republic of China decades ago, Taiwan continues to be a key economic and socio-cultural partner for the region at large. Successive administrations in Taiwan from the Chen to Tsai eras have circumvented the long-standing absence of diplomatic recognition with the diffusion of soft power ─ shaping what others want with attractiveness ─ through the utilization of its existing economic and soc...
Healthy aging is defined as the process of developing and maintaining the functional ability that enables well-being in older age. As population aging accelerates rapidly worldwide, healthy aging has become a major public health challenge. However, in later life, several metabolic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension and their complications (cardiovascular and renal diseases et al.) impose significant barriers to healthy aging. These conditions are influenced by various metabolic risk factors, such as smoking, high-calorie diet, and obesity. Moreover, these risk factors can also affect the aging process itself, by disrupting the balance of metabolic regulation in the body. Therefore, u...
Sulfur is the tenth most abundant element in the universe and the sixth most abundant element in microbial biomass. By virtue of its chemical properties, particularly the wide range of stable redox states, sulfur plays a critical role in central biochemistry as a structural element, redox center, and carbon carrier. In addition, redox reactions involving reduced and oxidized inorganic sulfur compounds can be utilized by microbes for the generation and conservation of biochemical energy. Microbial transformation of both inorganic and organic sulfur compounds has had a profound effect on the properties of the biosphere and continues to affect geochemistry today. For these reasons, we present here a collection of articles from the leading edge of the field of sulfur microbiology, focusing on reactions and compounds of geochemical significance.
