The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

The Shroud of Turin has been the focus of extensive study by historians and researchers since the beginning of the twentieth century. It is possibly the world’s most studied historical artifact generating a regular flow of new research publications. There is however one scientific test that overshadows all other research: the 1988 radiocarbon dating. This test dated the cloth to the period 1260–1390AD and was given such extensive publicity that most people today no longer accept the Shroud to be a true relic. Sadly very few people are aware that this test has been widely criticized for falling short of acceptable scientific standards. Similarly most people remain unaware of the wealth of compelling evidence that contradicts the conclusions of that test and supports claims of the Shroud’s authenticity. This book reveals extracts from secret discussions on dating evidence from the Shroud Science Group a private international forum of Shroud researchers and provides a detailed account of the dating evidence revealed by over a hundred years of research. It outlines reasons why the 1988 radiocarbon dating test continues to attract criticism from respected scientists and also describes a series of innovative flax dating techniques which have recently been used measure the age of Shroud material producing results that contradict the radiocarbon date. | The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

Biochemical Engineering An Introductory Textbook

All engineering disciplines have been developed from the basic sciences. Science gives us the information on the reasoning behind new product development whereas engineering is the application of science to manufacture the product at the commercial level. Biological processes involve various biomolecules which come from living sources. It is now possible to manipulate DNA to get the desired changes in biochemical processes. This book provides students the knowledge that will enable them to contribute in various professional fields including bioprocess development modeling and simulation and environmental engineering. It includes the analysis of different upstream and downstream processes. The chapters are organized in broad engineering subdisciplines such as mass and energy balances reaction theory using both chemical and enzymatic reactions microbial cell growth kinetics transport phenomena different control systems used in the fermentation industry and case studies of some industrial fermentation processes. Each chapter begins with a fundamental explanation for general readers and ends with in-depth scientific details suitable for expert readers. The book also includes the solutions to about 100 problems. | Biochemical Engineering An Introductory Textbook

Cancer Genetics and Genomics for Personalized Medicine

This book covers almost all fields of cancer genetics and genomics for personalized medicine. Targeted therapy or precision medicine or personalized medicine is becoming a standard treatment for many diseases including cancer. However how much do we know about the personalized medicine approach? This lucid book helps undergraduate and graduate students professional researchers and clinicians to better understand the key concept of personalized medicine. The most up-to-date topics on personalized medicine in this book cover the recent trends in and updates on lung gastric liver breast and other types of cancers. Circulating tumor cell cell-free circulating DNA and microRNAs are discussed as new diagnostic and prognostic markers for cancer. The avatar mouse model is also discussed for maximizing treatment efficacy and prognosis prediction and so is microenvironment as a drug resistance mechanism. With classical and new pathological approaches the book provides a systemic overview of personalized immunotherapies and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy followed by new emerging fields of hereditary cancer thereby equipping readers to eventually contribute in developing more advanced tools and therapies for curing cancer.

Characterization of Nanocomposites Technology and Industrial Applications

These days advanced multiscale hybrid materials are being produced in the industry studied by universities and used in several applications. Unlike for macromaterials it is difficult to obtain the physical mechanical electrical and thermal properties of nanomaterials because of the scale. Designers however must have knowledge of these properties to perform any finite element analysis or durability and damage tolerance analysis. This is the book that brings this knowledge within easy reach. What makes the book unique is the fact that its approach that combines multiscale multiphysics and statistical analysis with multiscale progressive failure analysis. The combination gives a very powerful tool for minimizing tests improving accuracy and understanding the effect of the statistical nature of materials in addition to the mechanics of advanced multiscale materials all the way to failure. The book focuses on obtaining valid mechanical properties of nanocomposite materials by accurate prediction and observed physical tests as well as by evaluation of test anomalies of advanced multiscale nanocomposites containing nanoparticles of different shapes such as chopped fiber spherical and platelet in polymeric ceramic and metallic materials. The prediction capability covers delamination fracture toughness impact resistance conductivity and fire resistance of nanocomposites. The methodology employs a high-fidelity procedure backed with comparison of predictions with test data for various types of static fatigue dynamic and crack growth problems. Using the proposed approach a good correlation between the simulation and experimental data is established. | Characterization of Nanocomposites Technology and Industrial Applications

Mobile Microspies Particles for Sensing and Communication

On the one hand particle-based sensing techniques are driven by new technologies for preparing and measuring micro- and nanoparticles and by a fascination of the possibilities for design and functionalization of all specificities in structure shapes and behavior of these tiny objects. On the other hand there evolves a fast-growing need for new sensing and communication paths for medicine biotechnology and analytical science as well as for new and efficient information transfer and storage systems. No longer are particles regarded only as special types of materials. However we have a better understanding of how they are bridging the gap between material and system between structure and function. Although there are numerous books on micro- and nanoparticles and on sensors there is to the best of my knowledge no book focusing on the general concept of particles as mobile microtransducers. This book clarifies that signal-transducing particles should be regarded as functional elements as part of a system not simply as special materials. It introduces concepts of bead-base sensing and mobile spies at the micro- and nanoscale and gives a representative overview of the variety of particle-based sensing. The state of the art in the development of particles as mobile spies for communication and information management allows us to speculate about future particle-based components and systems in a completely sustainable world economy. In addition the book reports on a fast-evolving technical field which is a typical example of the required convergence of technical strategies and mechanisms in living nature and would make a great reference for professionals and students of chemistry biochemistry biology pharmacy medicine agriculture mechatronics informatics materials science and systems engineering. | Mobile Microspies Particles for Sensing and Communication
