    Illustrated by the world-renowned Frank H. Netter, MD and artists working in his tradition, Netter's Atlas of Human Embryology, Second Edition, provides a rich pictorial overview of human prenatal development. For each stage of development and for each body system, you'll find a brief description of the developmental plan, with key concepts and terminology, followed by discussions of histological principles, the classification of congenital anomalies, and basic cellular, molecular, and genetic concepts. An emphasis on morphological patterns in the embryo and fetus makes it easy to understand the structure and function of the adult body and the embryonic basis of natural variation as well as birth anomalies.
  • Synthesis of 6- and 7-Membered Heterocycles

    The Role of DMF
    • 1st Edition
    • Navjeet Kaur
    • English
    Synthesis of Six- and Seven-Membered Heterocycles: The Role of DMF and its Synthesis compares different synthetic approaches using DMF, including the advantages and disadvantages of those reactions, green methods, and the sustainability of reported synthetic methodologies, especially the microwave methods. The book presents several methodologies for the synthesis of six- and seven-membered heterocyclic compounds using dimethylformamide. Users will find the most up-to-date information in this fast-moving field which can be particularly challenging. With DMF drawing the attention of synthetic organic chemists, this book will help readers understand further developments in the uses of dimethylformamide beyond just its use as a polar solvent. As it can be expected that the use of dimethylformamide as a precursor will continue to grow in organic synthesis with new applications in sustainable and green chemistry, this book provides an ideal primer on the topics covered.
  • Fatigue in Additive Manufactured Metals

  • Advanced Functional Materials and Methods for Photodegradation of Toxic Pollutants

    • 1st Edition
    • Ajay Kumar Mishra + 4 more
    • English
    Advanced Functional Materials and Methods for Photodegradation of Toxic Pollutants addresses the potential role of visible active photocatalytic methods for the removal of various emerging and persistent organic pollutants (POPs.) Describing the classification, sources and potential risks of emerging organics in water bodies and the environment, the book covers the different synthesis methods of visible active structured photocatalysts and structure related properties to their applications in photocatalytic processes for the removal of antibiotics, pharma and heavy metal pollutants. This book provides an invaluable reference to academics, researchers and technicians in chemical engineering, chemistry and environmental science. In addition, the mechanistic insights associated with the interaction of advanced functional materials and water pollutants along with the possible reaction pathway occurring during the visible light induced photocatalytic processes together with toxicity are discussed in detail along with the reutilization of catalysts, supporting the inherent reaction conditions performed with natural conditions.

    • English
    Nanotechnology for Oil-Water Separation: From Fundamentals to Industrial Applications explores how nanotechnologically engineered solutions (modified meshes, carbon nanotubes, functionalized fabrics, textile or hybrid elements for bio-membranes, nanofibrous materials, and many more) can be used to remediate current damage to the environment for a better tomorrow. Design and fabrication of low-cost, effective and environmentally friendly micro/nanomaterials exhibiting strong wettability properties and mechanical and chemical stability are examined, along with current research developments and possible future directions, making this book an essential read for researchers, advanced students, and industry professionals with an interest in nanotechnology and sustainable (bio)technologies. The increasing amounts of industrial substances released by petrochemical, steel or gas-generating plants and food-processing factories into water poses an ever more serious environmental threat. Due to the significant adverse impact on the natural ecosystem, aquatic organisms and human health, the scientific community has made its priority to find sustainable methods to separate oil-water mixtures.
