Fuel Cells From Birth to Maturity


Free Download Fuel Cells: From Birth to Maturity
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031445384 | 152 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 28 MB
The book presents the scientific history of the early days of fuel cells (1838 to 1845). The fuel cell effect was discovered by the Swiss scientist Christian Friedrich Schoenbein. while the English lawyer and scientist William Robert Grove perfected the idea into a working power source. But around 1870 Siemens invented the power generator and electricity was produced by rotating shafts of water wheels, engines and turbines. The book presents for the first time the complete communication between C. F. Schoenbein and R. W. Grove (1838 to 1868). Also, the original analysis based on the physical understanding of 1850 has also been revised and corrected. The updated fuel cell analysis leads to full agreement between theory and experiment.

Since the publication of the previous editions, there has been increased focus on the use of adipose-derived stromal/stem cells (ASC) and stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells in three-dimensional hydrogel-based scaffolds for the development of microphysiological systems (MPS) serving as in vitro humanized assays and alternatives to in vivo pre-clinical animal models. This third edition volume discusses of the latest technology and advancements in the field of human-derived ASC and SVF. The chapters in this book are organized into four parts. Part One focuses on human ASC’s isolation, characterization, and differentiation. Part Two describes the isolation and characterization of ASC and SVF from canine, feline, and murine tissues. Part Three looks at hydrogels, scaffolds, and microphysiological systems, and Part Four talks about the new assays and applications using ASC. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Robotic Manipulation of Reproductive Cells


Free Download Robotic Manipulation of Reproductive Cells
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031527291 | 225 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 38 MB
This is the first book to focus on robotic reproductive cell manipulation. It provides readers with the fundamental principles underpinning robotic manipulation of reproductive cells, including sperm, oocytes, and embryos, state-of-the-art technical advances in actuation, sensing and control for cell manipulation, and emerging automated systems for reproductive cell manipulation. The methods presented in the book are generic and can be translated to manipulating other types of cells, such as cancer cells and cardiomyocytes.

Evolution of Neurosensory Cells and Systems Gene regulation and cellular networks and processes


Free Download Evolution of Neurosensory Cells and Systems: Gene regulation and cellular networks and processes
English | 2022 | ISBN: 0367552116 | 309 Pages | EPUB True | 9 MB
This book is an overview of primary sensory maps of vertebrates, characterized by continuous and discrete properties. The eight primary sensory maps of vertebrates have unique features and use distinct molecular cues, cell cycle exit, and activity combinations during development, regeneration, and plasticity. As an introduction and overview, the book provides a short overview for all eight sensory senses and presents through evolution and gene regulatory networks, the molecular cues needed for sensory processing. Independent contributions are included for olfactory, vision, trigeminal, taste, vestibular, auditory, lateral line, and electroreception.

Hematopoietic Stem Cells


Free Download Hematopoietic Stem Cells: Keystone of Tissue Development and Regenerative Medicine
English | 2024 | ISBN: 9819974704 | 559 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 10 MB
This book renders a comprehensive understanding of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from their embryonic development through adult maintenance to aging, in the studies conducted in zebrafish and mammals. Hematopoiesis provides a paradigm for understanding the development, maintenance, regeneration, aging and malignant transformation of mammalian organs. Sitting at the apex of the hematopoiesis hierarchy tree, HSCs orchestrate their proliferation, self-renewal, and differentiation to produce all the blood cell lineages throughout life, which represents the best example for somatic stem cell studies. In this book, key regulatory mechanisms for HSC self-renewal and differentiation are overviewed in an array of fields including epigenetics, metabolism and microenvironment regulation. It also highlights the HSC heterogeneity and clonal dynamics from the recent advanced single-cell technologies. This book elaborates on the research history of HSC studies and reveals how the insights from HSC studies shed light on their clinic application. It presents great value from the bench to the clinic.
