Foams and froths are an important feature of everyday life; one only has to think of shaving foam, foam upholstery, fire fighting foam, bread, bear head, and ice cream.
In July 1989 a symposium was held at the Physiology Department of the Georg August University, G6ttingen, on the physiological, biophysical, biochemical, and technical principles of the coding of chemical substances both in nervous systems and artificial devices.
After many years of relative neglect, the importance of study of factors governing blood flow has at last achieved recognition; in this volume are documented many of the techniques, and the basic scientific and clinical observations, which have helped to open up understanding of this highly important aspect of human physiology and pathology in recent years.
A NATO Advanced study Institute on "e;Receptors, Membrane Trans- port and Signal Transduction"e;, was held on the Island of Spet- sai, Greece, from August 16-27, 1988, in order to consider re- cent developments in membrane receptor research, membrane trans- port and signal transduction mechanisms.
In late 1971 we were involved in a study of the interaction of radiation with matter and were trying to use measurements of radiation fluorescence in biological molecules to indicate how radiation affected living cells.
Pathologie, Klinische Zytologie, Histochemie, Onkologie, Hämatologie, Medizinische Informatik Das Buch beschreibt die Grundlagen und wichtige Anwendungen stereologisch-morphometrischer Methoden sowie der rechnergestützten Bildverarbeitung auf dem Gebiet der klinischen Zytologie und Histopathologie.
This book takes a comprehensive approach to exploring the connection between Membrane proteins' (MPs) structures and functions, employing the principles of chemical kinetics.
Besides bringing together researchers and clinicians from various disciplines to share their scope of research on the seminal role of mitochondria in human disease, this original volume of the book has a broader appeal by exploring the health and disease of mitochondria, with specific emphasis on how mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the development of various neurodegeneration, cancer, and metabolic disorders.
Advances in Compararative and Environmental Physiology helps biologists, physiologists, and biochemists keep track of the extensive literature in the field.
Dedicated to Professor Albert Herz, a leading investigator in opioid research, this book provides comprehensive information on the biology of exogenous and endogenous opioids.
An introductory discussion of basic chromosome structure andfunction preceeds the main text on the application ofcytogenetic approaches to the analysis of the manipulationof both the genetic make-up and the genetic transmissionsystem of plant breeding material.
The book describes molecular principles and mechanisms by which mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can drive the occurrence of diseases and the latest understanding of mtDNA biology.
Now in its second edition, this concise textbook provides an overview of the field of nutrigenomics, a topic at the intersection of nutrition and genetics that explores how dietary molecules interact with our genome and epigenome to influence health and disease.
