Mitochondrial Mechanisms of Degeneration and Repair in Parkinson's Disease
This volume brings together various theories of how aberrations in mitochondrial function and morphology contribute to neurodegeneration in idiopathic and familial forms of Parkinson’s disease. Moreover, it comprehensively reviews the current search for therapies, and proposes how molecules are involved in specific functions as attractive therapeutic targets. It is expected to facilitate crit…

Microbial Degradation of Synthetic Dyes in Wastewaters
Today synthetic dyes are used extensively in the textile dyeing, paper printing, color photography, pharmaceuticals, food and drink, cosmetic and leather industries. As of now, over 100,000 different dyes are available, with an annual production of over 700,000 metric tons. These industries discharge an enormous amount of colored effluents into natural water bodies, with or without treatment. T…

The Vitamin A Story : Lifting the Shadow of Death
This book shows how vitamin A deficiency – before the vitamin was known to scientists – affected millions of people throughout history. It is a story of sailors and soldiers, penniless mothers, orphaned infants, and young children left susceptible to blindness and fatal infections. We also glimpse the fortunate ones who, with ample vitamin A-rich food, escaped this elusive stalker…

Polysaccharides in Solution
Carbohydrates can be found in many natural sources, and they play a central role in various biological processes. These versatile biopolymers are difficult to dissolve in solutions, and therefore converting them into functional forms is a significant challenge, whereby both experimental and computational studies become critical. This chapter discusses commonly used experimental approaches to in…
