Polymer Gels
This book exclusively focuses on the science and fundamentals of polymer gels, as well as the numerous advantages that polymer gel-based materials offer. It presents a comprehensive collection of chapters on the recent advances and developments in the core science and fundamentals of both synthetic and natural polymer-based gels, and pays particular attention to applications in the various research fields of biomedicine and engineering. Key topics addressed include: polysaccharide-based gels and their fundamentals; stimuli-responsive polymer gels; polymer gels applied to enzyme and cell immobilization; chitosan-based gels for cancer therapy; natural polymeric and gelling agents; radiation dosimetry; polymeric gels as vehicles for enhanced drug delivery across the skin; transport in and through gel; and polymer gel nanocomposites and functional gels. The book’s extensive and highly topical coverage will appeal to researchers working in a broad range of fields in industry and academia alike.
Glass Transition and Phase Transitions in Food and Biological Materials
Glass and State Transitions in Food and Biological Materials describes how glass transition has been applied to food micro-structure, food processing, product development, storage studies, packaging development and other areas. This book has been structured so that readers can initially grasp the basic principles and instrumentation, before moving through the various applications. In summary, the book will provide the “missing link” between food science and material science/polymer engineering. This will allow food scientists to better understand the concept and applications of thermal properties.

The book is divided into 24 chapters, each one covering a specific method of screening. The initial chapters discuss maternal red blood cell group and antibody screen, antepartum assessment of haemoglobin, haematocrit and serum ferritin in detail. Other chapters include information on ultrasound detection of structural abnormalities in the first trimester, fundal height measurement and management of foetal growth restriction by Doppler velocimetry. Later chapters focus on screening for specific conditions such...
Cardiovascular and Kidney Disease within the Geriatric Population in Developing Countries
This book is a timely resource for all dealing with care of the elderly. It is deliberately wide in its scope and is aimed at strengthening medical students, interns, medical post-graduates, general practitioners, physicians and specialists in renal medicine, as they practice the skill, art and science of modern medicine in caring for the elderly. Despite diversity in culture, ethnicity, food habits, health care provision and socioeconomic status, there is an increasing trend of lifestyle diseases such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, obesity, malignancy and chronic kidney disease worldwide. The book is focused on those in developing countries (e.g. South Asian countries and Sub-Saharan African countries), but will also be of use to medical professionals everywhere.
Chronicity
This book comprehensively and critically discusses chronicity as a crucial challenge for the future of medicine in an era of aging populations and the steady growth of non-communicable comorbidities. It describes how health systems that are still designed and based on the treatment of acute diseases are suffering from crowded emergency rooms and growing conflicts between patients, while medical staff increasingly face frustration and the risk of burn-out. The author not only shares her own clinical and personal experience in the care of end stage COPD or ALS patients with respiratory insufficiency, but also explores how primary care, incremental medicine and initiative medicine can improve t...
