Photoproteins in Bioanalysis
The use of light-emitting proteins for the detection of biomolecules provides fast and sensitive methods which overcome the disadvantages of radioactive labels and the high cost of fluorescent dyes. This reference work summarizes modern advanced techniques and their applications and includes practical examples of assays based on photoproteins. The book presents contemporary key topics like luminescent marine organisms, DNA probes, reporter gene assays and photoproteins, ratiometric sensing, use of photoproteins for in vivo functional imaging and luminescent proteins in binding assays, to name just a few, and is complemented by recent advances in instrumentation. Includes an introductory chapter by 2008 Chemistry Nobel laureate Osamu Shimomura.
Vaga-lumes e outros insetos bioluminescentes da Mata Atlântica
Vaga-lumes são símbolos bioluminescentes da nossa biodiversidade noturna. Seus sinais luminosos são utilizados para fins de comunicação e reprodução, embelezando as nossas noites de campo. As substâncias luminescentes e informações genéticas isolados desses enigmáticos organismos trouxeram importantes informações para a ciência, e beneficiaram a humanidade através de inúmeras aplicações analíticas nos campos biomédico, ambiental e industrial. O Brasil é o país com a maior diversidade de vaga-lumes do mundo. Apesar de sua riqueza e de sua importância científica e biotecnológica mundo afora, pouca atenção tem sido dada a esse fascinante grupo de insetos no Brasil. E...
Luminous Creatures
Naturalists in antiquity worked hard to dispel fanciful ideas about the meaning of living lights, but remained bewildered by them. Even Charles Darwin was perplexed by the chaotic diversity of luminous organisms, which he found difficult to reconcile with his evolutionary theory. It fell to naturalists and scientists to make sense of the dazzling displays of fireflies and other organisms. In Luminous Creatures Michel Anctil shows how mythical perceptions of bioluminescence gradually gave way to a scientific understanding of its mechanisms, functions, and evolution, and to the recognition of its usefulness for biomedical and other applied fields. Following the rise of the modern scientific me...

Constructed Ecologies
Today, designers are shifting the practice of landscape architecture towards the need for a more complex understanding of ecological science. Constructed Ecologies presents ecology as critical theory for design, and provides major ideas for design that are supported with solid and imaginative science. In the questioning narrative of Constructed Ecologies, the author discards many old and tired theories in landscape architecture. With detailed documentation, she casts off the savannah theory, critiques the search for universals, reveals the needed role of designers in large-scale agriculture, abandons the overlay technique of McHarg, and introduces the ecological and urban health urgency of public night lighting. Margaret Grose presents wide-ranging new approaches and shows the importance of learning from science for design, of going beyond assumptions, of working in multiple rather than single issues, of disrupting linear design thinking, and of dealing with data. This book is written with a clear voice by an ecologist and landscape architect who has led design students into loving ecological science for the support it gives design.
