Perfluorocarbon compounds used as gas carriers
ISBN: 9783639245851 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Perfluorocarbons are fluorine substituted halocarbons. They have been used in several technological areas because of their thermal and chemical stability. In addition they are biocompatible and can dissolve large amounts of gas as compared to water. Their capacity of dissolution of oxygen and carbon dioxide makes them desirable gas carriers. Consequently, they have undergone trials, for liquid ventilation, oxygen therapeutics (blood substitutes), cell culture and organ preservation, among others. Pharmaceutical companies have invested intensively in this research field because of...

Near-infrared spectroscopy: diagnosis of neonatal hypoxia-ischemia
ISBN: 9783639243079 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Birth is associated with a risk for asphyxia-induced brain damage, principally due to complications during delivery. An important hallmark of asphyxic encephalopathy is that it often requires hours to days to manifest after resuscitation, the result: early prognosis and treatment could potentially improve outcomes. This book presents a novel, minimally-invasive near-infrared spectroscopy bedside technique to measure brain metabolism and blood flow as promising diagnostics of asphyxia. Presented is an overview of the current clinical status of critical care for asphyxic newborns, in addition...

Calculating Muscle Forces
ISBN: 9783639247527 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Models are used to simulate and calculate individual muscle forces and body mass accelerations. Parameters which describe the characteristics of the modeled muscles are important input variables. Since they are estimated values it is of interest how variations to those parameters influence the calculated forces and resulting accelerations. Which parameters are crucial and which ones can be neglected? Are there interdependences between muscles? For example, does a change in force produced by one muscle affect the performance of another? The author Gisela Hoflinger gives an introduction of...

Electromagnetism and Life
ISBN: 9780981854908 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The environment is now thoroughly polluted by man-made sources of electromagnetic radiation with frequencies and magnitudes never before present. Man's activities have probably changed the earth's electromagnetic background to a greater degree than they have changed any other natural physical attribute of the earth. The evidence now indicates that the present abnormal electromagnetic environment constitutes a significant health risk. There are also positive aspects of the relationship between electromagnetism and life. Clinical uses of electromagnetic energy are increasing and promise to...

Spectral sensitivity of the circadian system
ISBN: 9783639233506 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The discovery of a novel photoreceptor in the retina that participates in circadian phototransduction (how the retina converts light signals into neural signals) has opened up a new area of investigation. It is still not known whether human circadian phototransduction uses mechanisms similar to color vision, i.e., opponent mechanisms at a post-receptoral level. The primary goal of the study reporter here was to answer the question: does the circadian system respond to light in an additive manner, or is a spectral opponent mechanism also involved? A secondary goal of this work was to...

Energy Landscapes of Protein Folding: From Structure to Function
ISBN: 9783838111087 / Angielski / Miękka / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Proteins are the vital molecules in living cells and important targets for pharmaceutical and biotechnological applications. To function, they need a defined three dimensional structure. All the information necessary for a protein to achieve this conformation is encoded in its amino acid sequence. To understand the process by which a polypeptide chain folds into its three-dimensional structure (the so-called "protein folding reaction") is an essential element in structural biology. This work mainly focusses on the structural and functional characterization of partially folded intermediate...

Thermal Fluctuations of Biomolecules
ISBN: 9783838111452 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The understanding of biomolecular dynamics is a topic of primary interest in contemporary science, as the dynamics forms the basis of the individual function of proteins and peptides. The dynamical behavior of biomolecules covers time ranges from pico- to milli-seconds, and beyond. The natural environment of biomolecules, i.e. aqueous solution, is a source of permanent, dynamical perturbations. In the present work, the time evolution of biomolecules is examined with respect to the thermally driven fluctuations. Molecular dynamics simulation allows the dynamics of polypeptide chains to be...

Functional Significance of Na, K- And H, K-Atpase -Subunits
ISBN: 9783838113494 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Na, K-ATPase and gastric H, K-ATPase are primary active transporters that belong to the superfamily of P-type ATPases. These membrane proteins utilize the energy released by the hydrolysis of ATP to transport their cationic substrates against electrochemical gradients. Despite more than 50 years of extensive research on P-type ATPases, the molecular details of their ion transport mechanisms are not fully understood. Especially for oligomeric P-type ATPases, such as Na, K- and H, K-ATPases, which require an accessory -subunit for their transport activity, many open questions remain, since only...

Fabrication and Characterization of Extracellular Matrix Nanofibrils
ISBN: 9783838114194 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A new method to create regular arrays of Fibronectin (Fn) nanofibrils was developed. This method allows the control of nanofibril directionality and diameter and can also be used to produce nanofibrils from other ECM proteins, such as Laminin (LM) and Collagen (COL). The biofunctionality of different ECM nanofibrillar arrays was demonstrated by specific cell adhesion after nanofibril transfer onto non-fouling polyethyleneglycol(PEG) hydrogels. An investigation of both the molecular structure and the mechanical properties of Fn nanofibrils was performed by Forster Resonance Energy Transfer...

Nonlinear Microrheology of Living Cells
ISBN: 9783838116075 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The nonlinear mechanical properties of cells in response to large forces as they arise under physiological conditions are not well understood. In this work, a magnetic tweezers setup optimized for large forces was developed. Forces of more than 100 nN can be applied, which has not been achieved previously with a setup of this type. The time- and force-dependent nonlinear material properties of various cell types were examined using this setup. The creep response always followed a power law, as in the linear case. With increasing force, stress stiffening and shear fluidization were observed....

Potential-sensitive dyes have been extensively used to probe the electrical environment in biological membranes due to changes in its linear and nonlinear optical properties as a function of the local electric field. Ratiometric fluorescence, two-photon excited fluorescence and second harmonic generation have all been applied to study biological cell and membrane systems. Mechanism and sensitivity studies for these potential-sensitive dyes have become popular due to the increasing biological needs. In this book, fluorescence-free time-correlated single photon counting hyper Rayleigh...

Comparison of Cardiovascular Controls under Orthostatic Stress
ISBN: 9783639274820 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mathematical modelling plays a key role in modern medicine and the life sciences. Many physiological phenomena are very difficult to measure even in experimentally controllable situations. Thus mathematical modelling is often the only way to assess underlying mechanisms of complex biological systems. This text presents an elaborate deterministic model of the human cardiovascular system to simulate the effects of gravitationally induced hypovolemia, i.e. orthostatic stress, on the human body. Many clinical conditions arise from impaired physiological responses to this stress, e.g. orthostatic...
