Canines The Original Biosensors

Canines The Original Biosensors

Detection canines have been utilized throughout the world for over a century and while numerous attempts have been made to replicate the canine’s ability to detect substances by mechanical means none has been as successful. The olfactory system is a highly intricate and sophisticated design for chemical sensing and the olfactory capacity of many animals including canines is considered unmatched by machine due to not only their great sensitivity and superior selectivity but also their trainability and mobility. These unique features have led to the use of such animals as whole-animal biosensors. Amplifying the benefits and diminishing the limitations of detection canines' interdisciplinary research is crucial to understanding canine olfaction and detection and enhancing this powerful and complex detector. The past 50 years have produced vast advancements in animal behavior/training technology to develop canines into more proficient and reliable sensors while scientific research has provided tremendous support to help practitioners better understand how to utilize this powerful sensor. This book assembles a diverse group of authors with expertise in a variety of fields relating to detection canines and the chemical sensing industry including both research and operational perspectives on detection canines. It illustrates how science enhances our understanding of how canines are employed for solving some of the world’s leading detection challenges. | Canines The Original Biosensors

Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

In the past three decades great efforts have been made to develop new methods for the extraction of natural molecules. Improved extraction technologies have garnered scientific interest as they have helped in understanding how mass and energy transfer exhibited for a solvent and solute during a chemical extraction can be used as physical chemistry parameters leading to the modeling and design of new advantageous equipment. In situ data collected during a chemically assisted experiment is useful in a variety of scientific and technological applications especially in generating extractors that are safer more efficient and offer true opportunities to scale them up in a wide range of materials (among stainless steel). This book compiles empirical and traditional extraction methods applied to cutting-edge critical extraction research in the areas of food science phytochemistry pharmacy fragrance cosmetology and folk medicine. It presents extraction technology as an interdisciplinary area that applies the principles of physics and chemistry as tools to develop engineered models for the construction of more advanced extraction devices. It includes examples and problems related to data treatment in normal laboratory research work that will facilitate undergraduate- and graduate-level students as well as operators working in the area in solving real problems. | Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy
