Taxol, originally derived from the North American Yew tree in 1971, is well-known worldwide as a powerful anticancer agent. Mechanistically, it has a unique microtubule stabilizing activity, and was clinically developed as a therapeutic agent in the treatment of breast and ovarian cancers at the National Cancer Institute, Washington D.C., USA. I
Covering both organic materials, where recent advances in the understanding of device physics is driving progress, and the newly emerging field of mixed halide perovskites, which are challenging the efficiencies of conventional thin film PV cells, this book provides a balanced overview of the experimental and theoretical aspects of these solar cell classes. Emphasis is placed on understanding the fundamental physics of the devices. The book also discusses modelling over many length scales, from nano to macro. The first book to cover perovskites, this is an important reference for industrialists and researchers working in energy technologies and materials.
This book presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Intelligent, Interactive Systems and Applications (IISA2018), held in Hong Kong, China on June 29–30, 2018. It consists of contributions from diverse areas of intelligent interactive systems (IIS), such as: autonomous systems; pattern recognition and vision systems; e-enabled systems; mobile computing and intelligent networking; Internet & cloud computing; intelligent systems and applications. The book covers the latest ideas and innovations from both the industrial and academic worlds, and shares the best practices in the fields of computer science, communication engineering and latest applications of IOT and its use in industry. It also discusses key research outputs, providing readers with a wealth of new ideas and food for thought.
Chapters collected from “The Virtual Conference on Chemistry and its Applications (VCCA-2021) – Research and Innovations in Chemical Sciences: Paving the Way Forward”. This conference was held in August 2021 and organized by the Computational Chemistry Group of the University of Mauritius. These peer-reviewed chapters offer insights into research on fundamental and applied chemistry with interdisciplinary subject matter.
It was once assumed that mitochondrial diseases were rare and that few people were affected. As knowledge has grown about these organelles and their function, it became clear that mitochondrial malfunction could be linked to several chronic diseases. Diabetes has been associated with DNA mutation and can cause mutation itself. This text discusses f
