The new editions have updated literature references and new material throughout.
With emerging biological threats from pathogenic microorganisms and increasing environmental pollutants, it is essential to ensure the safety needs of individuals and the ecosystem are met. Modern materials science and engineering has evolved over the years to better develop devices to test abnormalities. Affordability, accessibility, and reliability of any analytical system is the prime necessity for a modern diagnostic application. Health and Environmental Applications of Biosensing Technologies: Clinical and Allied Health Science Perspective presents a detailed overview on biosensor design systems and optimal fabrication technologies to create a greater impact on various industries and help organizations break existing performance tradeoffs to deploy biosensor technologies across inter/transdisciplinary businesses. The book presents novel and emerging trends in biosensor design and healthcare applications focused on API detection, communicable/non-communicable disease diagnosis, food quality monitoring, agro-environmental analysis, bio-defense, and industrial pollutant sensing. In addition, wearable biosensors, commercial products, and safety regulations for biosensing technologies are summarized.
Bringing together leading sample preparation academics from around the world, the editor has put together an informative new book, suitable for analytical chemists and practitioners utilising SPME tools in their research.
This book is a unique and authoritative review of chemical fronts in the ocean world. It includes regional chapters on chemical fronts in all major oceans (Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, Arctic, and Southern) and marginal seas (North Sea, Baltic Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, Yellow Sea, and the East Siberian Sea). Thematic chapters focus on diverse topics such as cross-frontal transfer of nutrients; diapycnal mixing and its impact on nutrient fluxes in western boundary currents (Gulf Stream and Kuroshio); front-driven physical-biogeochemical-ecological interactions; dynamics of coloured dissolved organic matter; pollutant concentration and fish contamination in frontal zones; distribution of microplastics in the ocean, and Lagrangian methods to study the transport of marine litter.This volume will appeal to a broad audience, including researchers, instructors, students, and practitioners of all kinds involved in scientific and applied research, environment protection and conservation, and maritime industries including fisheries, aquaculture, and mining. Chapter "Lagrangian Methods for Visualizing and Assessing Frontal Dynamics of Floating Marine Litter with a Focus on Tidal Basins" is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
This volume brings together internationally leading researchers interested in bi- and multimetallic nanoalloys to explore and exchange ideas on recent developments and future possibilities.
Explores the new generation spectroscopies, the advanced applications of these new techniques, and the practical difficulties in both performing the experiment and analyzing the data of these innovative techniques.
Stable Isotope Geochemistry is an introduction to the use of stable isotopes in the geosciences. For students and scientists alike the book will be a primary source of information with regard to how and where stable isotopes can be used to solve geological problems. It is subdivided into three parts: i) theoretical and experimental principles, ii) fractionation processes of light and heavy elements, iii) the natural variations of geologically important reservoirs. In the last decade, major advances in multicollector-ICP-mass-spectrometry enable the precise determination of a wide range of transition and heavy elements. Progress in analysing the rare isotopes of certain elements allows the distinction between mass-dependent and mass-independent fractionations. These major advances in analytical techniques make an extended new edition necessary. Special emphasis has been given to the growing field of "e;non-traditional"e; isotope systems. Many new references have been added, which will enable quick access to recent literature.
Goerg Michler summarizes the large field of electron microscopy and clearly presents the different techniques. The author clearly describes the possible applications of microscopy and the requirements for specimen preparation. He illustrates the descriptions with picture examples from practice.The Author:Prof. Dr. rer. nat. habil. Goerg H. Michler was head of the Institute for Materials Science at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, is honorary chairman of the Institute for Polymer Materials e.V. and chairman of the Heinz Bethge Foundation for Applied Electron Microscopy.
This book describes the basic physical principles of techniques to generate and ultrashort pulse lasers and applications to ultrafast spectroscopy of various materials covering chemical molecular compounds, solid-state materials, exotic novel materials including topological materials, biological molecules and bio- and synthetic polymers. It introduces non-linear optics which provides the basics of generation and measurement of pulses and application examples of ultrafast spectroscopy to solid state physics. Also it provide not only material properties but also material processing procedures. The book describes also details of the world shortest visible laser and DUV lasers developed by the author's group. It is composed of the following 12 Sections: The special features of this book is that it is written by a single author with a few collaborators in a systematic way. Hence it provides a comprehensive and systematic description of the research field of ultrashort pulse lasers and ultrafast spectroscopy.Generation of ultrashort pulses in deep ultraviolet to near infraredGeneration of ultrashort pulses in terahertzCarrier envelope phase (CEP)Simple NLO processes with a few colorsMulti-color involved NLO processesMulti-color ultrashort pulse generationNLO materialsNLO processes in time-resolved spectroscopyLow dimension materialsConductors and superconductorsChemical reactions and material processingPhotobiological reactions
For educators seeking to serve their students' learning journeys, this work outlines how to reimagine content and deliver engaging chemistry course material through the various iterations of online learning.
Dieses Buch beschreibt moderne Erkenntnisse der Farbwahrnehmung, die auf physikalischen und physiologischen Phänomenen basiert. Dargestellt werden die Vorgänge vor unserem Auge und die Umsetzung hinter unserem Auge (Gehirn). Dabei spielen Pigmente eine große Rolle bei der Manipulation der Lichtstrahlen. Diese Manipulation kann unterschiedlich sein und durch Absorption, Spiegelung oder Interferenz erfolgen. Allerdings ist es dem Auge egal, wie diese Manipulation stattfindet. Ein grünes Buntpigment erzeugt den gleichen Farbeindruck wie eine Mischung aus einem gelben und einem blauen Buntpigment. Das Buch führt populärwissenschaftlich an das Thema heran und spricht hierdurch einen großen Leserkreis an, der Interesse an naturwissenschaftlichen Themen zeigt. http://lila.wrcramer.de/

Welcome, welcome! With so many people slapping their neon The Fantastic Book of Chemistry Jokes, the author's edition has been released. No matter your understanding of chemistry, I am sure you'll get a reaction, because the jokes within are sodium funny. These jokes have been accumulated through years of interactions with fellow scientists and teachers and lots of drinking in strange bars late at night. A word of caution must be had, some jokes are innocent, and some are rude & lewd, but none are meant to offend. As studies have shown, the darker your sense of humour, the more intelligent you are. With that being said, sit back, put your feet up and wait for the nerdy fluorine, uranium, nitrogen-filled laughs to tickle your fancy. "Chemistry can be a good and bad thing. Chemistry is good when you make love with it. Chemistry is bad when you make crack with it."-Adam Sandler
