Kunihiro Kuwajima, Yuji Goto, Fumio Hirata, Masahide Terazima, Mikio Kataoka, "Water and Biomolecules: Physical Chemistry of Life Phenomena (Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering)"
Springer | 2009-04-01 | ISBN: 3540887865 | 307 pages | PDF | 14,2 MB

Life is produced by the interplay of water and biomolecules. This book deals with the physicochemical aspects of such life phenomena produced by water and biomolecules, and addresses topics including "Protein Dynamics and Functions", "Protein and DNA Folding", and "Protein Amyloidosis". All sections have been written by internationally recognized front-line researchers. The idea for this book was born at the 5th International Symposium "Water and Biomolecules", held in Nara city, Japan, in 2008.

Enjoy this great book! Brought to you by SMIRK

Nonviral Vectors for Gene Therapy

Nonviral Vectors for Gene Therapy
Publisher: Academic Press | ISBN: 0123584655 | edition 1999 | PDF | 442 pages | 3,3 mb

Gene transfer within humans has been an obstacle until about 10 years ago. At that time, it was found that viral vectors were effective carriers of "healthy genes" into patients' cells. The problem, however, was that viral vectors proved unnecessarily harmful to humans: subjects experienced inflamatory activity and negative immunological responses to the genes. Viral vectors were also unable to meet the needs of the pharmaceutical community: they were not reproducible in large-scale proportions in cost-effective ways.
Thus, research was undertaken to find a safer way to transfer genes to patients without jeopardizing the safety of the patient. And so non-viral vectors were discovered. This volume presents the various non-viral vectors currently under development. Although not methodologically oriented, it will provide the necessary details behind the development of the vectors. This information will prove useful to both researchers and clinicians.

Toward Unity among Environmentalists

Toward Unity among Environmentalists By Bryan G. Norton
Publisher Oxford University Press, USA | ISBN: 0195093976 | edition 1994 | PDF | 304 pages | 14,93 mb

Today, six out of ten Americans describe themselves as "active" environmentalists or as "sympathetic" to the movement's concerns. The movement, in turn, reflects this millions-strong support in its diversity, encompassing a wide spectrum of causes, groups, and sometimes conflicting special interests. For far-sighted activists and policy makers, the question is how this diversity affects the ability to achieve key goals in the battle against pollution, erosion, and out-of-control growth. This insightful book offers an overview of the movement -- its past as well as its present -- and issues the most persuasive call yet for a unified approach to solving environmental problems. Focusing on examples from resource use, pollution control, protection of species and habitats, and land use, the author shows how the dynamics of diversity have actually hindered environmentalists in the past, but also how a convergence of these interests around forward-looking policies can be effected, despite variance in value systems espoused. The book is thus not only an assessment of today's movement, but a blueprint for action that can help pull together many different concerns under a common banner. Anyone interested in environmental issues and active approaches to their solution will find the author's observations both astute and creative.

Publisher: Wiley | Language: English | ISBN:0470518227 | 196 pages | Data: 2008 | PDF | 4 Mb

Description: Obtaining an echocardiogram is a complex procedure with a need for constant enhancement and improvement of skills in the area for both ultrasound technician and physician.A^ Owing to the increasing complexity of the echocardiogram and its interpretation, upon which patient care heavily relies, various professional bodies have been introducing competency exams.

This unique book has been designed to assist new trainees as well as more experienced technicians and physicians in preparing for competency exams for certification purposes. It provides easy-to-use revision material in the form of multiple-choice questions with clearly explained answers.

* Unique approach to echocardiography in a question and answer format; the questions are predominantly case studies
* Features 400 questions with answers and explanations. The scope of the questions in the book is broad, including areas such as applied ultrasound physics, haemodynamics, valvular problems, ischaemic heart disease, congenital heart diseases, intraoperative or surgical echocardiography, pericardial diseases and cardiac masses.
* Excellent for test preparation
* Easy to read and understand
* Complements standard textbook reading
* Written by experienced academic echocardiographers involved in teaching echocardiography every day
* Over 200 still images enhance the learning process
