Natural products are the most successful source of drugs. Of the 877 small-molecule new chemical entities introduced between 1981 and 2002, roughly half were natural products, semi-synthetic natural product analogues or natural mimics. Chinese herbs (traditional Chinese medicines, TCMs) have been used for prevention and treatment of diseases for thousands years. It has been attracting intensive attention in the trends of back to nature. As herbal medicines, the conditions of growth, harvest time, process and storage etc. will undoubtedly affect the presence and concentration of the bioactive constituents, thus affecting their quality and efficacy. Up to date, there are few books focussing on the relationship, which is the bridge between TCM and modern medical science, of traditional clinic uses, pharmacological activities and quality control of Chinese herbs.Unfortunately, bioactive compounds in Chinese herbs are usually not or only partially known. Actually, the active compounds considered in Chinese herbs may be different according to their clinical indication. In addition, it is considered that the curative effect of Chinese herbs is an integrative result of a number of bioactive compounds. Therefore, how to control the quality is a big problem. We would like to discuss the quality control based on their traditional clinical uses and pharmacological activities in this book, which is the fundamental step towards developing and modernising such products into evidence based medicines. It will also help the peoples to understand TCMs in modern scientific angles. This book is designed primarily as a textbook for or adjunct to course in herbal remedies, food safety or quality control of herbs. It is also a professional reference whom is in the area of drug discovery, pharmaceutical analysis and food chemistry.

Free Download M. Santarelli, "Experimental Activity on a Large SOFC Generator"
English | ISBN: 1604567430 | 2008 | 93 pages | PDF | 3 MB
The Multiscale Analysis Group of the Politecnico di Torino (Italy) is involved in the experimental analysis and modelling of the CHP-100 SOFC Field Unit built by Siemens Power Generation Stationary Fuel Cells (SPG-SFC). The experimental analysis of a large SOFC generator in operation is a complex task, due to the large number of variables which affect its operation, the limited number of measurements points in the generator volume, the necessity to avoid malfunctions in the real operation. As a consequence, the experimental analysis of the CHP-100 SOFC Field Unit has been developed with methods of Design of Experiments, and with a statistical analysis of the collected data. The experimental sessions have been designed in order to investigate the effect of two important operation factors in order to characterise the operation of the single sectors of the SOFC generator, and to obtain the sensitivity maps of the main investigated dependent variables. Furthermore, the main result is the estimation of the local values of fuel utilisation of the various sectors of the generator, through the combination of the experimental voltage sensitivity analysis to overall FC and an analytical model of polarisation, to outline the distribution of fuel inside the generator. Finally, the sectors of the generator, of different pedigree and position, are compared in terms of the polarization effects, showing how the local fuel utilisation and temperature affect the estimated local anode exchange current density values.

Free Download Peter Mahaffy, "Chemistry Human Activity, Chemical Reactivity"
English | 2014 | pages: 1319 | ISBN: 0176660887, 0170459195 | PDF | 203,1 mb
Taking an evidence-first big picture approach, Chemistry: Human Activity, Chemical Reactivity encourages students to think like a chemist, develop critical understanding of what chemistry is, why it is important and how chemists arrive at their discoveries. Flipping the traditional model of presenting facts and building to applications, this text begins with contexts that are real-life and matter to students – from doping in sports, to the chemistry behind the treads of wall-climbing robots. Informed by the latest chemical education research, Chemistry: Human Activity, Chemical Reactivity presents chemistry as the exciting, developing human activity that it is, rather than a body of facts, theories, and skills handed down from the past. Along with the innovative MindTap Reader and OWLv2 learning platform, this text uses unique case studies and critically acclaimed interactive e-resources to help students learn chemistry and how it is helping to address global challenges of the 21st century.

Free Download Hyperbaric Oxygenation: Mitochondrial Activity and Brain Physiological Functions by Avraham Mayevsky
English | January 24, 2024 | ISBN: 3031496809 | 371 pages | MOBI | 22 Mb
Exposure of patients to a high oxygen environment is a standard treatment in a select group of patients. The development of oxygen toxicity must be avoided in those patients. This book describes the effects of normobaric and hyperbaric oxygen treatment of animal models on brain biochemical and physiological responses. This book provides a summary of our knowledge on the effects of hyperbaric oxygenation on mitochondrial activity in vivo, and other functions of the brain. A chapter covering the use of hyperbaric hyperoxia in patients’ brain pathology and care is also included. This is an ideal book for students, research groups, and clinicians studying hyperbaric oxygen and its connection to mitochondrial activity and brain physiological functions.

Free Download Handbook of Neural Activity Measurement
English | 2012 | ISBN: 0521516226 | 517 Pages | PDF (True) | 18 MB
Neuroscientists employ many different techniques to observe the activity of the brain, from single-channel recording to functional imaging (fMRI). Many practical books explain how to use these techniques, but in order to extract meaningful information from the results it is necessary to understand the physical and mathematical principles underlying each measurement. This book covers an exhaustive range of techniques, with each chapter focusing on one in particular. Each author, a leading expert, explains exactly which quantity is being measured, the underlying principles at work, and most importantly the precise relationship between the signals measured and neural activity. The book is an important reference for neuroscientists who use these techniques in their own experimental protocols and need to interpret their results precisely, for computational neuroscientists who use such experimental results in their models, and for scientists who want to develop new measurement techniques or enhance existing ones.

With all the current efforts to use non-fossil sources as a starting point for future energy solutions, consideration is also being given to using microbial activities as a direct or indirect source of energy production. This ranges from the use of algae as biomass or as H2 producers, anaerobic microorganisms to produce methane, hydrogen, and even electricity directly.
