This volume emphasizes new techniques to help understand protein cages and to apply them to a variety of technologies, highlighting the expertise of researchers based on three continents. Protein cages are currently inspiring diverse scientific disciplines and are therefore at the crossroads of extremely widely-scoped research, which is reflected in the detailed chapters of Protein Cages: Methods and Protocols. From nanomaterials studies and iron particles to computational strategies and Atomic Force Microscopy, the chapters herein collectively provide an introduction to the rich...

This book reviews the development of antifouling surfaces and materials for both land and marine environments, with an emphasis on marine anti biofouling. It explains the differences and intrinsic relationship between antifouling in land and marine environments, which are based on superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity respectively. It covers various topics including biomimetic antifouling and self-cleaning surfaces, grafted polymer brushes and micro/nanostructure surfaces with antifouling properties, as well as marine anti biofouling. Marine anti biofouling includes both historical...

Conversion of biomass into chemicals and biofuels is an active research and development area as trends move to replace traditional fossil fuels with renewable resources. By integrating processing methods with ultrasound and microwave irradiation into biorefineries, the time-scale of many operations can be greatly reduced while the efficiency of the reactions can be remarkably increased so that process intensification can be achieved. Production of Biofuels and Chemicals with Ultrasound and Production of Biofuels and Chemicals with Microwave are two independent volumes in the Biofuels and...

The emerging genomic, epigenomic, sensing and image technologies will produce a deluge of unprecedentedly massive and highly-dimensional genomic, epigenomic, physiological, image and clinical data. Goals of this book are to develop unified frameworks, basic knowledge and efficient computational tools for analyzing growing large, complex and diverse genomic, epigenomic, physiological and image data. The book is designed to introduce the currently developed statistical methods and software for big genomic and epigenomic data analysis with real-world examples and case studies.
