Ultrafine Bubbles

Ultrafine Bubbles

Ultrafine bubbles (UFBs) are gas-filled bubbles with a diameter smaller than 1 μm. They are sometimes called bulk nanobubbles because these are not on a solid surface but inside a bulk liquid (water). They are already being used in commercial processes such as cleaning and plant cultivation. However many mysteries still exist with respect to UFBs such as mechanisms of stability OH radical formation and biological and medical effects. This is the first book on UFBs that reviews research done on them. It is helpful for those interested in the fundamentals of this emerging field and its applications including cleaning biological medical and dental students and researchers.

Physics of Magnetic Thin Films Theory and Simulation

Physics of Magnetic Thin Films Theory and Simulation

This book is for graduate students and researchers who wish to understand theoretical mechanisms lying behind macroscopic properties of magnetic thin films. It provides a detailed description of basic theoretical methods and techniques of simulation to help readers in their research projects. The first part of the book contains 6 chapters. Chapters 1 to 5 focus on the fundamental theory of bulk magnetic materials. Chapter 6 is devoted to the presentation of the Monte Carlo simulation methods. Exercises and problems are provided at the end of each of these chapters for self-training. The second part contains 11 chapters devoted to the main topic of the book namely “physics of magnetic thin films: theory and simulation. ” Written as a research paper each chapter focuses on a subject and also presents the state-of-the-art literature on the subject and the motivation of the chapter. A detailed description of the techniques and the presentation of the results are then shown with discussion. | Physics of Magnetic Thin Films Theory and Simulation

Pharmaceutical Biocatalysis Important Enzymes Novel Targets and Therapies

Pharmaceutical Biocatalysis Important Enzymes Novel Targets and Therapies

This volume of Pharmaceutical Biocatalysis starts with a discussion on the importance of biocatalytic synthesis approaches for a sustainable and environmentally friendly production of pharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Among the enzymes discussed in detail with respect to their pharmaceutical relevance are cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases playing an important role in modulating signal transduction in various cell types; human DOPA decarboxylase related to Parkinson's disease and aromatic amino acid decarboxylase deficiency; and phospholipase D enzymes as drug targets. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 mutations are novel therapeutic targets in acute myeloid leukemia. An additional chapter is devoted to the use of enzymes for prodrug activation in cancer therapy. The other topics include small-molecule inhibitors targeting receptor tyrosine kinases in cancer β-Lactams and related compounds as antibacterials non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants for the treatment of thromboembolic diseases and the molecular mechanisms for statin pleiotropy and its clinical relevance in cardiovascular diseases. The last chapter is a review of lysosomal storage disorders with an overview of approved drugs for treating these disorders by enzyme replacement therapy. | Pharmaceutical Biocatalysis Important Enzymes Novel Targets and Therapies

Physics and Future of Hurricanes

Physics and Future of Hurricanes

This monograph is about hurricanes prompted by a discovery that suggests they will become more powerful with global warming. It provides at a college physics level a basic understanding of hurricanes emphasizing the flow of energy into and out of these storms and as a textbook covers some material that might be taught in meteorology or atmospheric physics courses. The text is centered on a new discovery that is not in any existing textbook. Because of the new discovery the book is of immediate interest to all meteorologists. It turns out that hurricanes as revealed by the new discovery are usefully regarded as a separate phase of matter bringing in characteristic temperature dependences near their transitions. The role of phase change in understanding hurricanes brings in the 20th-century discoveries in theoretical physics relating to critical phenomena with non-intuitive values of the critical exponent β entering the formula P = const (T – Tc)β where P is a characteristic strength parameter or order parameter of the phase of matter appearing at Tc. According to the new discovery on hurricanes it appears that taking the wind velocity as the order parameter P the critical exponent is near 1/3. In a second discovery we find that a small correction to this value is brought in by the complicated physics of the renormalization group that earned K. G. Wilson the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1982. | Physics and Future of Hurricanes
