The fungal genus Botrytis is the focus of intensive scientific research worldwide. The complex interactions between this pathogen and the plants it infects and the economic importance of the diseases caused by Botrytis (principally grey mould) on more than 1400 species of cultivated plants pre- and post-harvest, render this pathogen of particular interest to farmers, advisers, students and rese…
Penyebaran kepalsuan yang disengaja dan serangan yang menyertainya terhadap minoritas, kebebasan pers, dan supremasi hukum menantang norma dan nilai dasar yang menjadi sandaran legitimasi kelembagaan dan stabilitas politik. Bagaimana kita bisa sampai di sini? Era Disinformasi mengumpulkan sekelompok sejarawan, ilmuwan politik, dan pakar komunikasi yang luar biasa untuk meneliti asal-usul sejara…
Buku pegangan interdisipliner pertama di bidangnya, sumber daya vital ini menawarkan analisis regulasi penelitian kesehatan yang luas. Bab-bab tersebut menghadapi kesenjangan antara hukum yang terdokumentasi dan penelitian dalam praktik, dan mengacu pada teori hukum, etika, dan sosial tentang apa yang dianggap sebagai regulasi penelitian yang kuat untuk membuat rekomendasi untuk arah masa depan…

In recent years, the European Commission has attached increasing importance to the use of financial engineering instruments rather than traditional grant-based financing for the microcredit sector, considering these to be the most efficient option available. This book presents a study of capacity building and structural funds in public managing authorities for the microcredit sector. It present…
This Brief concerns the chemical risk in food products from the viewpoint of microbiology. The “Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point” (HACCP) approach, which is applied for this purpose, is dedicated to the study and the analysis of all possible dangers by food consumptions and the related countermeasures with the aim of protecting the health of consumers. This difficult objective is …
This volume discusses membrane potential imaging in the nervous system and in the heart and modern optical recording technology. Additionally, it covers organic and genetically-encoded voltage-sensitive dyes; membrane potential imaging from individual neurons, brain slices, and brains in vivo; optical imaging of cardiac tissue and arrhythmias; bio-photonics modelling. This is an expanded and fu…
This book presents the results of a unique macroscopic and radiological analysis, by X-ray and CT scan, of the bone pathologies of about 1800 subjects who lived at the time of the Roman Empire (first and second centuries A.D.) and whose remains were recovered during the excavation of a suburban necropolis of Rome. The survey, which represents a collaboration between the Italian Society of Ortho…
This book introduces the latest research developments in composite nanomaterials and summarizes the fundamentals and technical approaches in synthesis, fabrication and processing of composite nanomaterials.

MRI provides the best means of imaging the bone marrow directly and of non-invasively assessing its composition. Normal age-related bone marrow changes, alterations related to red marrow reconversion, and pathological bone marrow processes generally conform to certain patterns that reflect the underlying marrow changes and can be clearly recognized on MR images. In addition to conventional puls…
