Ultrafast Dynamics of Phospholipid-Water Interfaces Studied by Nonlinear Tim…
This thesis presents a highly innovative study of the ultrafast structural and vibrational dynamics of hydrated phospholipids, the basic constituents of cell membranes. As a novel approach to the water-phospholipid interface, the author studies phosphate vibrations using the most advanced methods of nonlinear vibrational spectroscopy, including femtosecond two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy.…

Trapping of Small Organisms Moving Randomly Principles and Applications to P…
This new book is the first to make logical and important connections between trapping and foraging ecology. It develops and describes—both verbally and mathematically--the underlying principles that determine and define trap-organism interactions. More important, it goes on to explain and illustrate how these principles and relationships can be used to estimate absolute population densities i…

The Physical Basis of Bacterial Quorum Communication
Quorum sensing (QS) describes a chemical communication behavior that is nearly universal among bacteria. Individual cells release a diffusible small molecule (an autoinducer) into their environment. A high concentration of this autoinducer serves as a signal of high population density, triggering new patterns of gene expression throughout the population. However QS is often much more complex th…

Plant Responses to Xenobiotics
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…
