Описание:
Membrane processes today play a significant role in the replacement therapy for acute and chronic organ failure diseases. Current extracorporeal blood purification and oxygenation devices employ membranes acting as selective barriers for the removal of endogeneous and exogeneous toxins and for gas exchange, respectively. Additionally, membrane technology offers new interesting opportunities for the design of bioartificial livers, pancreas, kidneys, lungs etc.
This book reviews the latest developments in membrane systems for bioartificial organs and regenerative medicine, investigates how membrane technology can improve the quality and efficiency of biomedical devices, and highlights the design procedures for membrane materials covering the preparation, characterization, and sterilization steps as well as transport phenomena. The different strategies pursued for the development of membrane bioartificial organs, including crucial issues related to blood/cell-membrane interactions are described with the aim of opening new and exciting frontiers in the coming decades.
The book is a valuable tool for tissue engineers, clinicians, biomaterials scientists, membranologists as well as biologists and biotechnologists. It is also a source of reference for students, academic and industrial researchers in the topic of biotechnology, biomedical engineering, materials science and medicine.
Описание: This book systematically integrates essentials, advances, and clinical correlations for cardiovascular drugs. The author covers both fundamentals and pharmacology of cardiovascular drugs, as well as their applications to treat cardiovascular diseases.

Описание:
Stimuli responsive drug delivery systems have emerged as one of the most innovative classes of polymer materials of modern materials science. The book offers a convincing approach to understanding the basic principles of drug delivery process, their mathematical modeling, different types of drug delivery systems, various polymer systems responsive to stimuli such as swelling, pH, temperature, light, chemical agents, electric and magnetic fields.

Описание: The 26th edition provides practical, evidence-based recommendations from the experts in antimicrobial therapy for treatment of infectious diseases in children. For each disease, the authors provide a commentary to help health care providers select the best of all antimicrobial choices.
Drug descriptions cover pediatric-appropriate antimicrobial agents available today and include complete information about dosing regimens.
New in the 26th edition:
First pediatric approval of beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor for CRE (carbapenem-resistant enteric bacilli), ceftazidime-avibactam
Replacement antibiotics for cefotaxime (lack of availability in the US), including ceftriaxone and cefepime (for neonates)
Situations in which ceftaroline is preferred over vancomycin by the Editors for MRSA infections
Updates on management of influenza, including baloxavir (now approved for children >12 years)
Описание: This book provides a complete picture of drug discovery for these inter-related conditions by bringing together the latest information and highlighting links between them.
