I have developed "tennis elbow" from lugging this book around the past four weeks, but it is worth the pain, the effort, and the aspirin. It is also worth the (relatively speaking) bargain price. Including appendixes, this book contains 894 pages of text. The entire panorama of the neural sciences is surveyed and examined, and it is comprehensive in its scope, from genomes to social behaviors. The editors explicitly state that the book is designed as "an introductory text for students of biology, behavior, and medicine," but it is hard to imagine any audience, interested in any fragment of neuroscience at any level of sophistication, that would not enjoy this book. The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or

Electroactive microorganisms in bioelectrochemical systems

Clearly, the possibility that Van Peenen's statements are correct exists, but no molecular geneticist would contend that these assertions have been established, in any but a very few cases, which appear at present to be atypical. The educated lavman, for whom this book is intended, will find the author's leaps from the level of the quoted material into sophisticated physical chemistry and back again disconcerting at least, if not completely confusing. It can be said, however, that the authors have assembled an excellent group of illustrations; lecturers in elementary genetics wishing to locate clear illustrations to use as slides would do well to look in this book first.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates: Characteristics, production, recent developments and applications

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have been recognized in numerous fields including nanobiotechnology, biomedical engineering, and many other fields for its inestimable applications. Superparamagnetic property and the smaller size of SPIONs are the major reasons for its utilization in various fields. In this review, the overall view on work done so far on SPIONS is detailed. Where, it started with different methods of synthesis of SPIONs including various types physical (such as gas-phase deposition, pulsed laser ablation, power ball milling), chemical (chemical co-precipitation, micro-emulsions, hydrothermal synthesis) and biological methods (using bacteria and plant) and are also elaborated. Its properties and characteristics are detailed. The formulation of SPIONs into drug-laden nanocarrier for exhibiting targeted drug delivery and its use in cancer treatment as hyperthermia is emphasised. Its various other applications consist of radiation therapy, environmental remediation, tissue engineering etc., which are also elaborated.

A review on synthesis, characterization and potential biological applications of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles

Synthesis of curcumin loaded polymeric nanoparticles from crab shell derived chitosan for drug delivery

Study on a Novel natural cellulosic fiber from Kigelia africana fruit: Characterization and analysis.

The versatility of superparamagnetic iron-oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have been extensively investigated, especially for their applications in therapeutics and diagnostics. Considering their intriguing feature of contrasting agent, in terms of medical applications, it is still in its infancy. Various physicochemical parameters like magnetism, crystallinity, and optical parameters contribute to their better contrasting agent. In this study, SPIONs were synthesized with different concentrations of precursor iron molecular solution in the presence of magnetic field and the optimum concentration of precursor iron molecular solution was determined as 0.133%. SPIONs obtained at optimum concentration were further analyzed by both microscopic and spectroscopic analysis. The difference occurred in the elemental nature of SPIONs as they were synthesized in the magnetic field out of precursor iron molecular solution was analyzed with a specific reference to NMR spectroscopy. SPIONs as contrasting agent against X-ray imaging was also investigated in quail’s egg.
