Drug Delivery with Targeted Nanoparticles In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation Methods

Drug Delivery with Targeted Nanoparticles In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation Methods

Nanotechnology has the potential to change every part of our lives. Today nanotechnology-based products are used in many areas and one of the most important areas is drug delivery. Nanoparticulate drug delivery systems not only provide controlled delivery of drugs and improved drug solubility but also improve drug efficiency and reduce side effects via targeting mechanisms. However compared with conventional drug delivery systems few nanoparticle-based products are on the market and almost all are nontargeted or only passively targeted systems. In addition obtaining targeted nanoparticle systems is quite complex and requires several evaluation mechanisms. This book discusses the production characterization regulation and currently marketed targeted nanoparticle systems in a broad framework. It provides an overview of targeted nanoparticles’ (i) in vitro characterization such as particle size stability ligand density and type; (ii) in vivo behavior for different targeting areas such as tumor brain and vagina; and (iii) current advances in this field including clinical trials and regulation processes. | Drug Delivery with Targeted Nanoparticles In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation Methods

Adjudication in Construction Law

Adjudication in Construction Law

This book collects all the relevant material regarding the process of adjudication in construction. It provides clarity for those involved in the adjudication process or related proceedings with detailed and reliable analysis of them supported by statutory provisions and judicial observations. Adjudication in Construction Law discusses the role of ‘true value’ adjudications following smash and grab decisions on the basis of the absence of a pay less notice the restraint of adjudication by injunction hybrid contracts dealing with both construction operations and other operations and timing and content of payment notices and pay less notices. Additionally this book includes a summary of the different procedures adopted in other jurisdictions as well as an explanation of the payment procedures under the statutory framework. It also goes on to append all the relevant statutory material contractual adjudication procedures and forms. A new feature of this edition is a detailed analysis and discussion of the development and of the ‘rules’ relating to the acceptability of a wrong answer provided that the right question has been dealt with only one dispute being susceptible to adjudication and the necessity or otherwise of a dispute ‘arising under’ the construction contract. A clear and comprehensive aid this book is an essential read for lawyers or construction professionals involved in adjudication.

Discourse Particles in Asian Languages

Discourse Particles in Asian Languages

Within linguistics there has been a great deal of interest in discourse particles for some time now especially within semantics and pragmatics. The term ‘discourse particles’ has been used to cover a broad range of phenomena including such things as ‘sentence final particles ’ ‘discourse adverbs’ and other related phenomena. However most research in the area (particularly within formal semantics and pragmatics) focuses on a restricted set of languages and there is little consensus on the proper formal treatment of particles partly due to the limited range of data available. In recent years there has been extensive development of the formal approach to discourse particles which often treats these words as devices for marking information update. Also important is the extension of data to non-Western languages like Japanese Korean or Chinese. These volumes are the first to give an exclusive focus on particles in non-European languages (in this case Asian languages) from the perspective of formal as well as non-formal semantics and pragmatics. These volumes include papers on Japanese Mandarin Tagalog Kimaragang Dusun Malay Singlish Thai and Vietnamese. The papers are informed by recent theoretical work in formal semantics and pragmatics relating to the meaning of particles. The collection contributes to our theoretical understanding of the meaning of discourse particles and to empirical knowledge of discourse particles in the languages of Asia. | Discourse Particles in Asian Languages

Management of Carbon Sequestration in Soil

Management of Carbon Sequestration in Soil

This book addresses the importance of soil processes in the global carbon cycle. Agricultural activities considered responsible for an increase in CO2 levels in our atmosphere include: deforestation biomass burning tillage and intensive cultivation and drainage of wetlands. However agriculture can also be a solution to the problem in which carbon can be removed from the atmosphere and permanently sequestered into the soil. Management of Carbon Sequestration in Soil highlights the importance of world soils as a sink for atmospheric carbon and discusses the impact of tillage conservation reserve programs (CRP) management of grasslands and woodlands and other soil and crop management and land use practices that lead to carbon sequestration.
