The need to reduce the ecological footprint of water/land/air vehicles in this era of climate change requires pushing the limits regarding the development of lightweight structures and materials. This requires a thorough understanding of their thermomechanical behavior at several stages of the production chain. Moreover, during service, the response of lightweight alloys under the simultaneous …
A challenging frontier in modern statistical physics concerns systems with a small number of degrees of freedom, far from the thermodynamic limit. Beyond the general interest in the foundation of statistical mechanics, the relevance of this subject is due to the recent increase of resolution in the observation and manipulation of biological and man-made objects at micro- and nano-scales. A pecu…
Declining access to fresh water is one of the twenty-first century’s most pressing environmental and human rights challenges, yet the struggle for water is not a new cause. The 8,800-kilometer border dividing Canada and the United States contains more than 20 percent of the world’s total freshwater resources, and Border Flows traces the century-long effort by Canada and the United States to…
This book overviews cancer immunity from broad scientific fields, based on the concept that cancer is a sort of by-product of infection, inflammation, and host immune response. The innate and acquired arms of the immune system mainly participate in tumor immune surveillance, and their activation is critically modulated by the situation of the tumor microenvironment. Many types of immune cells j…
Pencemaran lingkungan merupakan salah satu masalah utama akibat laju industrialisasi yang cepat dan eksploitasi sumber daya alam yang tidak terkendali. Ini mengarah pada peningkatan paparan ekosistem terhadap zat yang disebut xenobiotik. Istilah xenobiotik berasal dari kata Yunani ξένoς (xenos) = orang asing, orang asing dan ßí Jadi, xenobiotik adalah bahan kimia atau zat lain yang biasan…
"Omics" adalah istilah kolektif yang digunakan untuk menggambarkan sekumpulan bidang multidisiplin dalam biologi dan ilmu-ilmu terkait yang berfokus pada studi komprehensif tentang sistem biologis pada berbagai tingkat molekuler. Bidang-bidang ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dan memahami kumpulan molekul lengkap dalam sistem biologis, baik gen, protein, metabolit, atau biomolekul lainnya. Disi…
"Teknik dan Protokol Mikroteknik Tanaman" mengacu pada seperangkat metode dan prosedur laboratorium yang digunakan untuk persiapan, pemeriksaan, dan analisis jaringan dan sel tanaman pada skala mikro. Teknik-teknik ini sangat penting untuk berbagai aplikasi dalam biologi tanaman, termasuk penelitian tentang struktur tanaman, perkembangan, fisiologi, genetika, dan banyak lagi. Teknik lama dan ba…
Hubungan simbiosis antara tanaman dan mikroba, yang sering disebut sebagai simbiosis tanaman-mikroba, merupakan aspek mendasar dari biologi tanaman dan memiliki banyak aspek terapan di berbagai bidang. Hubungan ini dapat memiliki dampak yang signifikan terhadap kesehatan tanaman, pertumbuhan, dan dinamika ekosistem secara keseluruhan. Mikroorganisme yang berasosiasi dengan tanaman (PAM) memain…
