Mobile Microspies Particles for Sensing and Communication

Mobile Microspies Particles for Sensing and Communication

On the one hand particle-based sensing techniques are driven by new technologies for preparing and measuring micro- and nanoparticles and by a fascination of the possibilities for design and functionalization of all specificities in structure shapes and behavior of these tiny objects. On the other hand there evolves a fast-growing need for new sensing and communication paths for medicine biotechnology and analytical science as well as for new and efficient information transfer and storage systems. No longer are particles regarded only as special types of materials. However we have a better understanding of how they are bridging the gap between material and system between structure and function. Although there are numerous books on micro- and nanoparticles and on sensors there is to the best of my knowledge no book focusing on the general concept of particles as mobile microtransducers. This book clarifies that signal-transducing particles should be regarded as functional elements as part of a system not simply as special materials. It introduces concepts of bead-base sensing and mobile spies at the micro- and nanoscale and gives a representative overview of the variety of particle-based sensing. The state of the art in the development of particles as mobile spies for communication and information management allows us to speculate about future particle-based components and systems in a completely sustainable world economy. In addition the book reports on a fast-evolving technical field which is a typical example of the required convergence of technical strategies and mechanisms in living nature and would make a great reference for professionals and students of chemistry biochemistry biology pharmacy medicine agriculture mechatronics informatics materials science and systems engineering. | Mobile Microspies Particles for Sensing and Communication

Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

In the past three decades great efforts have been made to develop new methods for the extraction of natural molecules. Improved extraction technologies have garnered scientific interest as they have helped in understanding how mass and energy transfer exhibited for a solvent and solute during a chemical extraction can be used as physical chemistry parameters leading to the modeling and design of new advantageous equipment. In situ data collected during a chemically assisted experiment is useful in a variety of scientific and technological applications especially in generating extractors that are safer more efficient and offer true opportunities to scale them up in a wide range of materials (among stainless steel). This book compiles empirical and traditional extraction methods applied to cutting-edge critical extraction research in the areas of food science phytochemistry pharmacy fragrance cosmetology and folk medicine. It presents extraction technology as an interdisciplinary area that applies the principles of physics and chemistry as tools to develop engineered models for the construction of more advanced extraction devices.

Environmental Ethical and Economical Issues of Nanotechnology

Environmental Ethical and Economical Issues of Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is moving out of its comfort zone of scientific discourse. As new products go to market and national and international organizations roll out public-engagement programs on nanotechnology to discuss environmental and health issues various sectors of the public are beginning to discuss what the controversy is all about. Nongovernmental organizations have long since reacted; however now the social sciences have begun to study the cultural phenomenon of nanotechnology thus extending discourses and opening out nanotechnology to whole new social dimensions. These dimensions and their newly constructed imaginings around nanotechnology intersect with the ecology health governance economy and illusory futures. There is always a need for more than just an ELSI (ethical legal and social implications) sideshow within nanotechnology. The collective public imaginings of nanotechnology include tangles of science and science fiction local enterprises and global transformation all looking forward toward a sustainable future while looking back on the past debates on science and nature. This book highlights the environmental health and economical concerns of nanotechnology and discusses its future research directions. It provides academia and industry a high-tech start-up that will revolutionize modern practices. With little and outdated literature available on the topic this timely book will be helpful for the readers as it thoroughly covers the environmental ethical and economical issues of nanotechnology.

Neuroscience for Artificial Intelligence

Mass Spectrometry

Mass Spectrometry

It is estimated that there are about 10 million organic chemicals known and about 100 000 new organic compounds are produced each year. Some of these new chemicals are made in the laboratory and some are isolated from natural products. The structural determination of these compounds is the job of the chemist. There are several instrumental techniques used to determine the structures of organic compounds. These include NMR UV/visible infrared spectroscopy mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. Of all the instrumental techniques listed infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry are the two most popular techniques mainly because they tend to be less expensive and give us the most structural information. This book is an introductory text designed to acquaint undergraduate and graduate students with the basic theory and interpretative techniques of mass spectrometry. Much of the material in this text has been used over a period of several years for teaching courses in materials characterization and chemical analysis. It presents the mass spectra of the major classes of organic compounds and correlates the fragmentation pattern of each spectrum with the structural features of the compound it represents. This has been done for hydrocarbons organic acids ketones aldehydes esters anhydrides phenols amines and amides. The text discusses the origin of the fragments techniques innovations and applications in mass spectrometry. It is interspersed with many illustrations examples an adequate but not overwhelming bibliography and problems for students. It will serve as a lecture text for a one-semester course in mass spectrometry or can be used to teach the mass spectra portion of a broader course in material characterization and chemical analysis.
