Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - With the increasing awareness and concern about the dependency on fossil resources and the depletion of crude oil reserves, this book covers the hot topics of renewable resources for biorefineries. With contributors from industry and academia, it covers both technical and policy aspects of the bio-based economy. Written at a level suitable for students taking modules on renewable resources, environmental and agricultural sciences and sustainable technology, it will also benefit industry professionals and product developers who are looking at improved economic and environmental means of utilising renewable resources in current and future biorefineries.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In a bid to develop synthetic molecules and materials that are capable of biomimicry, there has been intensive research in the fields of synthetic receptor technologies, smart materials, synthetic biology and smart indicators for the past 20 to 30 years. The development of synthetic receptors continues to grow rapidly. Novel molecular architectures, with ever improving selective binding properties, for biomolecules, are constantly being described, and in some cases providing much-needed physical insights into the nature of non-covalent interactions and molecular recognition. Such receptor systems are also being used for increasingly esoteric applications, often with real practical applications, particularly as specific sensors for single analytes and for sensor arrays for multi-analyte mixtures. This book aims to capture key developments at the synthetic receptor/biology/detection science interface.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Orphan drugs are designated drug substances that are intended to treat rare or 'orphan' diseases. More than 7000 rare diseases are known that collectively affect some 6-7% of the developed world's population, but individually, any single rare disease may only affect a handful of people making them unattractive for the biopharmaceutical industry to target. Providing an up-to-date mongraph, this book covers the basic science, drug discovery and regulatory elements behind orphan drugs.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Metal nanoclusters are gaining attention due to their electronic and optical properties. This new book covers the synthesis and properties of transition metal nanoclusters and their use in sensing, optoelectronics, photovoltaics and catalysis. Edited by active researchers in the area, the book is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in the fundamentals of the materials or their applications.…
