Chapters in this book review the remarkable advances in the field of zinc biology over the last decade. Zinc is essential for life, in particular for growth and development, through its role in hundreds of zinc enzymes and thousands of zinc proteins. Its catalytic, structural, and regulatory functions in these proteins impact metabolism, gene expression, and signal transduction, including neurotransmission. Among the micronutrients, zinc may rank with iron as to its importance for public health.

The topics covered range from single molecules to cells and to whole organisms: the...

Developments in the title field have been greatly motivated by the studies of transactinoid elements; selected experiments and their results are presented for visualization. Primarily, the book is about the physico-chemical basis of the experimental methods and techniques which are or can be used for compounds of all heavy metals; about evaluation of the desorption energies from the original gas-solid chromatography data; and about concepts and approaches which allow to estimate bulk properties of the compounds even from experiments with a few short-lived atoms. The book attempts for the...

Each chapter of Phosphorus Compounds: Advanced Tools in Catalysis and Material Sciences have been carefully selected by the editors in order to represent a state-of-the-art overview of how phosphorus chemistry can provide solutions in various fields of applications.

The editors have assembled an international array of world-renowned scientists and each chapter is written by experts in the fields of synthetic chemistry, homogeneous catalysis, dendrimers, theoretical calculations, materials science, and medicinal chemistry with a special focus on the chemistry of phosphorus...

This book addresses the emerging technology for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), covering OFDMA physical layer as well as network technology. The book also includes information on IEEE 802.16e and WiMAX networks and also offers a comparison with other OFDMA technologies.

OFDMA is the fastest growing area in the wireless marketplace, and the backbone of systems used in WiMAX. WiMAX is the technology that enables wireless users to communicate at any time from any location without having to find a WiFi hotspot.
