Multiplicity Yours Cloning, Stem Cell Research, and Regenerative Medicine


Free Download Hwa A. Lim, "Multiplicity Yours: Cloning, Stem Cell Research, and Regenerative Medicine"
English | ISBN: 9812568654 | 2006 | 440 pages | PDF | 26 MB
This is the first book of its kind that treats reproduction, cloning, stem cell research and regenerative medicine in an integrative manner.Touching on the science, social aspects, legal and ethical issues, and the current status of cloning, stem cell research and regenerative medicine, this self-contained book is an excellent source for introducing newcomers to the field or broadening the perspectives of experts and practitioners.In contrast to existing books on the market, which treat each topic in isolation or sensationalize the areas, this book takes an integrative and balanced approach. The treatment is easy to grasp and clear illustrations, graphics and photos explain the key concepts. The book explains the diverse topics from a scientific angle, a social perspective, and as a natural business development. The coverage also includes the political and ethical issues as well as many other thought-provoking scenarios.

Adult Stem Cell Survival


Free Download Anatoly Konoplyannikov, "Adult Stem Cell Survival "
English | ISBN: 1616680350 | 2010 | 56 pages | PDF | 6 MB
The authors have shown recently that for the two types of adult stem cells, the ‘ischemia/reperfusion’ reaction can be developed in vivo. They show how this data may be used in the development of new approaches for the protection of cell systems of organism renewal after the damaging action of various agents.

Moonlighting Cell Stress Proteins in Microbial Infections


Free Download Moonlighting Cell Stress Proteins in Microbial Infections By Peter A. Lund (auth.), Brian Henderson (eds.)
2013 | 406 Pages | ISBN: 9400767862 | PDF | 8 MB
Microbial infection is increasingly seen as a problem as we begin to run out of antibiotics. Understanding how microbes cause disease is essential. In recent years it has begun to emerge that bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses can use their cell stress proteins to cause infection. This volume brings together the world’s leading experts in the study of the microbial and human cell stress proteins that are involved in enabling microorganisms to infect humans and cause serious disease.

Microbial Electrolysis Cell Technology


Free Download Microbial Electrolysis Cell Technology: Fundamental to Sustainable Applications
English | 2024 | ISBN: 9819733553 | 318 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 33 MB
This book covers the different aspects of microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) technology and its applications in wastewater treatment such as nutrient recovery and heavy metals removal. The MEC technique is related to the technique the microbial fuel cells (MFC);, while the MFC uses the microbial decomposition of organic molecules to generate an electric current, MEC partly reverses the process by using an electric current to generate hydrogen or methane from organic material. If a sustainable energy source is used to generate the electric current, the generated hydrogen or methane can be used in an internal combustion engine or PEM fuel cell to generate energy. The chapters in this book describe the basic principles and working mechanism of the MEC, its effectiveness depending on the kind of microorganisms present, type of electrode materials, use of catalysis, and lastly its potential industrial applications for environmental remediation. This book benefits students, young researchers, academicians, and industrial scientists who are working in the field of environmental pollutants and their safe removal using new technologies.
