This is the most comprehensive series of articles on cyanobacteria molecular biology to date. It contains easy-to-follow, reliable protocols for isolation, culture, and extraction of nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids, addressing the unmet need for repeatable methods.
Eco-neurobiology investigates how environmental factors impact the brain. This book covers recent findings on how non-genetic factors—the food we eat, stress, and traumatic events—influence our minds, from everyday function to the development of disorders.
Six chemical elements make up 98% of the human body, but what remains is equally important. This book is about the other elements that are vitally important for some animals and plants, as well as a few that are deadly or used as protection by others.
This guide to cytogenetic techniques summarizes chromosomal disorders with pictures and easy-to-understand laboratory procedures. It details modern techniques for geneticists, scientists, and those aspiring to establish a molecular cytogenetic lab.
This book offers a European approach to green biotechnology entrepreneurship. It moves from concepts and principles to management, finance, and IT tools for starting a business. It also maps good practices in Europe, ideal for entrepreneurs or those seeking to build their skills.
Evolution and I discusses and sheds light on human knowledge and evolution from a range of perspectives including morals and ethics, sex and gender, religion, artificial intelligence, and microorganisms, with often surprising conclusions illuminating who we are as humans.
Evolution of Evolution
What is desperately needed is the realization of the evolutionary survival value of caring for others. This book links our humanities to a scientific understanding of human destiny to provide a key to meaning. We don’t have ‘forever’ to ‘get it!’
Exploring Nanostatistics
Explore Nanostatistics, where data science, nanotechnology, and machine learning converge. This guide uses advanced statistical models and AI to address real-world challenges in sustainability, healthcare, and technology, equipping you to shape the future at the nanoscale.
In 1830, John Williams wrote this pioneering study of the plants, animals, and agriculture of Llanrwst, north Wales. This new edition is reproduced verbatim but augmented by a biography of the author, a gazetteer of localities, and eight full-page colour plates.
This book explains the fundamental processes of evolutionary genetics, such as mutation, natural selection, and speciation. It provides an up-to-date overview of the field, discussing the theories of Darwin and Mendel, adaptation, and the origin of new genes.
An indispensable guide to fermentation technology. Written by experts, this book lucidly explains the fundamentals of industrial processes, from upstream and downstream processing to quality control. Essential for students and professionals in industrial microbiology.
From spotted dogs to mosaic irises, genetic mosaics are all around us—in fact, we are all mosaics. But little is known about the genetic bases of their origin. This book overviews the mechanisms behind mosaicism, with examples illustrating their impact on our lives.
Glow Discharge Polymerization
This book describes the local mechanisms of polymer synthesis in the main zones of glow discharge. These zonal mechanisms are so different that polymerization rates can differ by hundreds of times, creating polymer films with unique structures and signs of radiation damage.
The Mekong Delta’s economically significant fish species are threatened by fragmented research, hindering conservation. This monograph offers a solution: the culmination of a decade of research providing a holistic understanding of their genetics, ecology, and survival.
