Deals with the pathophysiology and pharmacology of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Trends in SHR research are described, from haemodynamic characteristics to immunological views. The role of excitatory amino acids for cardiovascular regulation in SHR are also covered.

This text aims to evaluate the actual impact of high-performance capillary electrophoresis on analytical biotechnology and environmental analysis. It should be of interest to those working in HPCE research and applications.

This monograph is devoted to urgent questions of the theory and applications of the Monte Carlo method for solving problems of atmospheric optics and hydrooptics. The importance of these problems has grown because of the increas- ing need to interpret optical observations, and to estimate radiative balance precisely for weather forecasting. Inhomogeneity and sphericity of the atmos- phere, absorption in atmospheric layers, multiple scattering and polarization of light, all create difficulties in solving these problems by traditional methods of computational mathematics. Particular difficulty...
