Waste Sites as Biological Reactors Characterization and Modeling


Free Download Nicholas L. Clesceri, "Waste Sites as Biological Reactors: Characterization and Modeling"
English | 2002 | pages: 403 | ISBN: 1566705509 | PDF | 2,2 mb
Where and how wastes disappear, and how the environment is affected by the process, are issues that affect cities and towns around the world. Recent investigations have convincingly shown that waste poses water, air, and public health dangers that necessitate highly efficient engineered controls. An inexpensive, effective, method for assessing impacts and risks of a system and devising management plans is to develop mathematical and quantitative models that are sufficiently representative to allow examination of physical systems as units subject to environmental factors.

NMR Methods for Characterization of Synthetic and Natural Polymers


Free Download Rongchun Zhang, Toshikazu Miyoshi, Pingchuan Sun, "NMR Methods for Characterization of Synthetic and Natural Polymers"
English | 2019 | pages: 590 | ISBN: 1788014006 | PDF | 29,0 mb
Since the introduction of FT-NMR spectroscopy around five decades ago, NMR has achieved significant advances in hardware and methodologies, accompanied with the enhancement of spectral resolution and signal sensitivity. Rapid developments in the polymers field mean that accurate and quantitative characterization of polymer structures and dynamics is the keystone for precisely regulating and controlling the physical and chemical properties of the polymer. This book specifically focuses on NMR investigation of complex polymers for the polymer community as well as NMR spectroscopists, and will push the development of both fields. It covers the latest advances, for example high field DNP and ultrafast MAS methodologies, and show how these novel NMR methods characterize various synthetic and natural polymers.

Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Characterization, Fabrication and Applications


Free Download Tetsuji Yamaoka, Takashi Hoshiba, "Decellularized Extracellular Matrix: Characterization, Fabrication and Applications"
English | 2019 | pages: 366 | ISBN: 1788014677 | PDF | 12,6 mb
The extracellular matrix (ECM) supports cells and regulates various cellular functions in our body. The native ECM promises to provide an excellent scaffold for regenerative medicine. In order to use the ECM as a scaffold in medicine, its cellular fractions need to be removed while retaining its structural and compositional properties. This process is called decellularization, and the resulting product is known as the decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM). This book focuses on the sources of dECM and its preparation, characterization techniques, fabrication, and applications in regenerative medicine and biological studies. Using this book, the reader will gain a good foundation in the field of ECM decellularization complemented with a broad overview of dECM characterization, ranging from structural observation and compositional assessment to immune responses against dECM and applications, ranging from microfabrication and 3D-printing to the application of tissue-derived dECM in vascular grafts and corneal tissue engineering etc. The book closes with a section dedicated to cultured cell dECM, a complementary technique of tissue-derived dECM preparation, for application in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, addressing its use in stem cell differentiation and how it can help in the study of the tumor microenvironment as well as in clinical trials of peripheral nerve regeneration.
