Carbohydrate Chemistry Chemical and Biological Approaches Volume 45 Amélia Pilar Rauter Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal | Thisbe K Lindhorst Kiel University, Germany | Yves Queneau INSA Lyon, France In many fields, most notably medicine and molecular biology, the understanding of the structure and function of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates remains vital. This new volume contains critical reviews covering the latest findings in both chemical and biological sciences, and demonstrates the interdisciplinary nature of modern carbohydrate research. The book starts with a review of Gérard Descotes contribution to the field as a pioneer of French modern carbohydrate chemistry. Green nanocatalytic oxidation of free sugars, photosensitive glycomacrocycles, the application of disaccharides in supramolecular chemistry and recent advances in the radiation chemistry of polysaccharides are just some of the diverse topics presented in Volume 45. This set of reports will certainly benefit any researcher who wishes to learn about the latest developments in the carbohydrate field. Organophosphorus Chemistry Volume 51 Lee J Higham Newcastle University, UK | David W Allen Sheffield Hallam University, UK | John C Tebby Sheffield Hallam University, UK This annual review of the literature presents a comprehensive and critical survey of the vast field of study involving organophosphorus compounds, from phosphines and related P-C bonded compounds, tervalent and quinquevalent phosphorus acids, phosphonium salts and P-Ylides to the recent developments in green synthetic approaches in organophosphorus chemistry. With an emphasis on interdisciplinary content, this book will appeal to the worldwide organic chemistry and engineering research communities. Photochemistry Volume 49 Stefano Crespi University of Groningen, The Netherlands | Stefano Protti University of Pavia, Italy Reviewing photo-induced processes that have relevance to a wide number of academic and commercial disciplines, this volume reflects the current interests in chemistry, physics, biology and technology. Highlight chapters include the molecules of colour and art, light induced reactions in cryogenic matrices, photobiological systems studied by time-resolved infrared spectroscopy and solar photocatalysis for water decontamination and disinfection. The new category of SPR lectures continues and a prize winning PhD from the United States Environmental Protection Agency is included. The volume continues to provide essential reading for postgraduates, academics and industrialists working in the field of photochemistry, enabling them to keep on top of the literature.

Alzheimer's Disease Recent Findings in Pathophysiology, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Modalities Thimmaiah Govindaraju Jawaharlal Nehru Centre Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), India Alzheimer's disease is an increasingly common form of dementia and despite rising interest in discovery of novel treatments and investigation into aetiology, there are no currently approved treatments that directly tackle the causes of the condition. Due to its multifactorial pathogenesis, current treatments are directed against symptoms and even precise diagnosis remains difficult as the majority of cases are diagnosed symptomatically and usually confirmed only by autopsy. Alzheimer's Disease: Recent Findings in Pathophysiology, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Modalities provides a comprehensive overview from aetiology and neurochemistry to diagnosis, evaluation and management of Alzheimer's disease, and latest therapeutic approaches. Intended to provide an introduction to all aspects of the disease and latest developments, this book is ideal for students, postgraduates and researchers in neurochemistry, neurological drug discovery and Alzheimer's Disease. Chemistry, Biological Activities and Therapeutic Applications of Medicinal Plants in Ayurveda Augustine Amalraj Aurea Biolabs Private Limited, India Ayurvedic Medicine or Ayurveda, is a traditional Indian health care system and research in Ayurveda is becoming a more global endeavour and several large pharmaceutical companies are investing in novel drug discovery from Ayurvedic sources. A number of clinical studies have demonstrated efficacy of natural products from ayurvedic plant extracts against common ailments such as arthritis and diabetes. Ayurvedic medicine and its components have been well described in the past but this book represents a comprehensive source on the biochemistry and mechanisms of pharmacological effect of ayurvedic sources. This book is a valuable resource for researchers in natural products and alternative sources of bioactive compounds in drug discovery. Forensic Chemistry of Substance Misuse A Guide to Drug Control Leslie A King 2nd Edition Updating and expanding the coverage of the 1st Edition, this book provides a chemical background to domestic and international controls on substances of misuse. International generic and analogue controls are described together with a critical review of their effectiveness. Other established drugs are also described as well as a large group of psychoactive substances that are not scheduled by the International Conventions. This book has general appeal to those needing information on illicit drugs including forensic scientists, lawyers, law enforcement agencies, drug regulatory authorities as well as graduate and postgraduate students of chemistry and the criminal law.
