Unsur hara dalam pupuk fosfor (P) yang sepenuhnya (100 %) dimanfaatkan oleh tanaman pangan tanpa (Nol) mencemari tanah dengan zat-zat yang relevan dengan lingkungan merupakan konsep masa depan pemupukan P di bidang pertanian. Kelangkaan P merupakan salah satu tantangan utama bagi pertanian dalam waktu dekat. Pemborosan sumber daya tak terbarukan P, yang sebagian besar dikonsumsi untuk pemupukan…
Sekarang sudah tepat 10 tahun sejak edisi pertama jilid ini, Philosophy of Chemistry: Synthesis of a New Discipline (Springer 2006 – - diedit bersama dengan Davis Baird - pertama kali muncul sebagai Jilid 242 dari Boston Studies in the Philosophy of seri Sains. Pada saat itu, filsafat kimia masih menjadi bidang yang sedang berkembang. Secara kebetulan juga sudah 20 tahun sejak kedua editor ji…
Buku ini, berjudul Pengerahan Tenaga Manual yang Dirasakan di Laboratorium, Dari Praktik Standar hingga Aplikasi Kontemporer, berfungsi sebagai angsuran ketiga dari karya Robert Robertson. Itu ditulis bersama dengan dua mahasiswa doktoralnya, Luke Haile dan Michael Gallagher. Saat buku ini mulai diterbitkan, kita mendekati tahun ke-50 penelitian pengerahan tenaga yang dirasakan di Amerika Serik…
The book focuses on the aqueous interface of biomolecules, a vital yet overlooked area of biophysical research. Most biological phenomena cannot be fully understood at the molecular level without considering interfacial behavior. The author presents conceptual advances in molecular biophysics that herald the advent of a new discipline, epistructural biology, centered on the interactions of w…
This book is intended as a reference guide for graduate students, postgraduate students and researchers with a basic knowledge of protein chemistry who would like to know more about the biomedical applications of natural proteins to promote healthier lives. The book is divided into ten chapters, each of which explains different natural proteins and their established biomedical applications. …
This is the second monograph by the author on biological materials of marine origin. The initial book is dedicated to the biological materials of marine invertebrates. This work is a source of modern knowledge on biomineralization, biomimetics and materials science with respect to marine vertebrates. For the first time in scientific literature the author gives the most coherent analysis of the …
The strongest point of this book titled “Biochemistry of Oxidative Stress: Physiopathology and Clinical Aspects”, is that the academic and scientific background of the authors/editors guarantee the authorship of a book comprising all aspects of oxidative stress, ranging from very molecular aspects, to clinical application, including the antioxidant therapy. Of particular importance is the f…
Beer is the most popular alcoholic beverage in the world. Yet, behind each glass of beer there is an enormous amount of work invested. If the first image that comes to your mind is the lifting of heavy bags of malt or carrying kegs, guess again! Most of the work involved in brewing is carried out by “microworkers” – yeast and their enzymes! These special helpers are responsible for cataly…
This new edition provides a comprehensive look at the molecular genetics and biochemical basis of fungal biology, covering important model organisms such as Aspergilli while also integrating advances made with zygomycetes and basidiomycetes. This book groups a total of 15 chapters authored by expert scholars in their respective fields into four sections. Five chapters cover various aspects of …
The thesis systematically investigates the factors which influence many animals’ robust adhesion abilities and micro-reversible adhesion mechanisms, including the geometric principles of their adhesion, relative humidity, surface roughness and pre-tension. Studies exploring biological adhesion mechanisms are not only of great significance for the design of advanced adhesive materials and adhe…
