Australia’s Poisonous Plants, Fungi and Cyanobacteria A Guide to Species of Medical and Veterinary Importance


Free Download Ross McKenzie, "Australia’s Poisonous Plants, Fungi and Cyanobacteria: A Guide to Species of Medical and Veterinary Importance"
English | 2012 | pages: 977 | ISBN: 0643092676 | PDF | 283,7 mb
Australia’s Poisonous Plants, Fungi and Cyanobacteria is the first full-color, comprehensive guide to the major natural threats to health in Australia affecting domestic and native animals and humans. The plant species are grouped by life form such as herbs, grasses and sedges, shrubs, trees, and for flowering plants by flower type and color for ease of identification. Species described have color photographs, distribution maps and notes on confusing species, habitats, toxins, animals affected, conditions of poisoning, clinical signs and symptoms, post mortem changes, therapy, prevention and control. Symbols are used for quick reference to poisoning duration and available ways of managing poisoning. As further aids to understanding, poisoning hotspots are highlighted and the book lists plants under the headings of animals affected and organs affected.

Free Download Protocols for Cyanobacteria Sampling and Detection of Cyanotoxin
English | 2023 | ISBN: 9819945135 | 848 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 51 MB
This protocol book provides detailed procedures for the isolation of cyanobacteria, extraction, quantification, and detection of cyanotoxins. It illustrates the sampling and processing of toxin-producing cyanobacteria in water and aquatic animal samples, detection of cyanotoxins from Anabaena, Anabaenopsis, Cylindrospermopsis, Microsystis, Microcystis, Nodularia, Nostoc, Schizotrix, Lyngbya, Raphidiopsis, Oscillatoria, Planktothrix in aquatic resources. It also covers toxicity analysis by various bioassay protocols, and in vitro and insilico analysis methods. The book also reviews the methods for cyanotoxin extraction, detection, and quantification by various tools including LC-MS/MS, HPLC, NMR, PCR, and HESI-MS/MS. A separate section is dedicated to the advanced methods in Cyanotoxin analysis including the Molecular Imprinting Method (MIM), Cellular signaling biosensor, Electrochemical sensor, Nanosensors, and screening of Polyketide synthase gene. The analysis of various toxin-producing genes like sxtA and mcy is also accounted for in this book.
