Making Quality Cosmetics Good Manufacturing Practice and ISO 22716:2007 Alastair J Gilchrist Gilchrist Technical Services, UK Cosmetics manufacture is a vibrant industry with companies varying from the very small scale, working in their own home, to much larger enterprises. The International Oragnization for Standards (ISO) provides guidelines on good manufacturing processes for the cosmetics indutry. However, not everyone working in cosmetics has scientific or engineering backgrounds and understanding and meeting the ISO requirements can be daunting. Making Quality Cosmetics explores all the requirements of the standard and offers technical solutions and guidance suitable both for people starting out in the industry and for established companies looking to expand. Mixed Anion Compounds Hiroshi Kageyama Kyoto University, Japan | Hiraku Ogino The University of Tokyo, Japan | Tetsuya Hasegawa The University of Tokyo, Japan Inorganic compounds are widely used in various industries. Despite the large number of constituent elements in these materials, the diversity of atomic coordination is severely limited, which gives constraints in materials design for the next generation. In contrast, compounds with multiple anions provide a newmaterials platform bringing a new degree of freedom for designing materials. Mixed anion compounds have seen a recent resurgence in interest owing to their intriguing properties for a wide variety of applications. The purpose of this book is a systematic description of the science of mixed anion compounds with a comprehensive description of synthesis, analysis, applications, and computational science related to mixed anion compounds. The book will be of particular interest to postgraduate students and researchers in inorganic solid-state chemistry, computational science and the synthesis, analysis and application of mixed anion compounds. 2D Nanomaterials for CO 2 Conversion into Chemicals and Fuels Kishor Kumar Sadasivuni Qatar University, Qatar | Karthik Kannan Qatar University, Qatar | Aboubakr M Abdullah Qatar University, Qatar | Bijandra Kumar Elizabeth City State University, USA Since the discovery of graphene, two-dimensional nanomaterials have emerged as promising candidates for heterogenous electrocatalysts due to their unique physical, chemical, and electronic properties. The tremendous opportunities of using two- dimensional nanomaterials in electrochemical CO 2 reduction comes from their huge number of applications. Covering the fundamentals, properties, and applications, all aspects of 2D nanomaterial composites within carbon dioxide conversion are discussed. With chapters written by internationally recognized researchers, this book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in materials science, energy and environmental science, as well as those in industry.

The Chemical Biology Series is a new venture that aims to provide a comprehensive suite of reference books on developing areas at the interface of chemistry and biology. Chapters written and edited by experts worldwide will introduce practical aspects and best methods, will explain the fundamental chemistry knowledge, and will provide forward-looking perspectives. Ultimately, the series aims to aid postgraduate students and researchers apply chemical tools and understand current challenges in the field. The books will provide a valuable reference for scientists working outside their own area of current expertise or looking to engage in chemical biology research. Coverage will include topics such as analytical and computational tools, chemical probes, imaging, glycosciences, genomics and transcriptomics, chemical genetics and gene editing tools, and aspects of synthetic biology.

William J Griffiths Swansea University, UK | Yuqin Wang Swansea University, UK Cholesterol is synthesised and metabolised by all animal cells. Dysregulation of its homeostasis leads to disease and is implicated in the major metabolic and neurological disorders of today. In this book, the authors describe the myriad of different pathways of cholesterol metabolism, including its biosynthesis. They discuss the biological properties of pathway intermediates including their roles in homeostasis and signalling and cover state-of-the-art methods of analysis and localisation of cholesterol, its precursors and metabolites. This book goes beyond the graduate textbook and is suitable for industry, post-graduates and research academics. It could also appeal to pharmacologists.

How life originated from an inanimate mixture of organic and inorganic compounds on the primordial Earth remains one of the great unknowns in science. This origin of life, or abiogenesis, continues to be examined theoretically and experimentally in the context of prebiotic conditions. This book provides a broad but in-depth analysis of the latest discoveries in prebiotic chemistry from the microscopic to the macroscopic scale, utilising experimental insight to provide a bottom up approach to provide a plausible explanation as to how life arose. With contributions from global leaders, this book is an ideal reference for postgraduate students and a single source of comprehensive information on the latest technical and theoretical advancements for researchers.
