Описание:
Several micro- and nanomanipulation techniques have emerged in recent decades thanks to advances in micro- and nanofabrication. For instance, the atomic force microscope (AFM) uses a nano-sized tip to image, push, pull, cut, and indent biological material in air, liquid, or vacuum. Using micro- and nanofabrication techniques, scientists can make manipulation tools, such as microgrippers and nanotweezers, on the same length scale as the biological samples.
Micro and Nano Techniques for the Handling of Biological Samples reviews the different techniques available to manipulate and integrate biological materials in a controlled manner, either by sliding them along a surface (2-D manipulation), or by gripping and moving them to a new position (3-D manipulation). The advantages and drawbacks are mentioned together with examples that reflect the state-of-the-art in manipulation techniques for biological samples.
Thanks to the advances in micro- and nanomanipulation techniques, the integration of biomaterials with physical transducers has been possible, giving rise to new and highly sensitive biosensing devices. Although great progress has been made, challenges are still present. To understand the complex interactions between and inside biological samples, scientists will always be working on improving technologies to manipulate, transport, sort, and integrate samples in different environments. Balanced between simplicity for the beginner and hardcore theory for the more advanced readers, this book is the ideal launching point for sharpening the scientific tools required to address these challenges.
Описание: In this revised and enlarged Second Edition you will find the information you need to run: - an informal meeting - a formal meeting using "Robert's Rules" - a community meeting - a virtual meeting - templates and examples of Agendas and Minutes - checklists to guide you through each step of a meeting As well as number of tools to help you make your meetings effective and positive. Have you just been asked to chair a meeting, or take the minutes, or set up a meeting agenda? Or maybe you've been asked to attend a formal meeting and wonder what on earth is a 'motion' or 'point of order'? Do you have a special interest or issue concerning you-and would like to involve other people? Need some help? Would samples of an agenda or minutes be useful? What about some techniques for chairing a meeting or dealing with difficult people? Then this "How to ..." book is for you. In it you will find: - how to decide whether there should be meeting - how to set up the agenda - the importance of setting timeframes in the agenda-and sticking to them - how to make sure that time is not wasted and the important items are covered - how to chair the meeting - how formal meeting procedures work - how to set up and run a community meeting - the special needs of the Family Business meeting - use the 80:20 Rule to stop time wasters and make sure focus on the right topics - how the minute taker can use Mind Mapping as a key tool - how to write the minutes - how to get the best out of the participants - how to improve your outcomes using Edward De Bono's 6 Thinking Hats - how to deal with difficult people You will find these: Checklist 1-Why hold this meeting? Checklist 2-Chair-Informal and Formal Meetings Checklist 3-Minute-taker-Informal and Formal Meetings Checklist 4-De Bono's 6 Thinking Hats Checklist 5-The 80:20 Rule Checklist 6-Meetings Mind Maps Checklist 7-Getting the Best out of People Checklist 9-Disagreements, Differences and Conflict Checklist 9-Meetings Start to Finish Agenda Example-Informal Meeting Agenda Template-Informal Meeting Minutes Example-Informal Meeting Minutes Template-Informal Meeting Formal Meeting Report Template Agenda Example-Formal Meeting Minutes Example-Formal Meeting Reviews of the 1st Edition 5.0 out of 5 stars. 21 July 2013. How to have productive, time efficient meetings. This e-book gives you all the tools you need to run a meeting that will produce results. It is easy to read, easy to comprehend and easy to follow. You are given checklists and templates to help you plan for a successful meeting and record the outcomes - and it helps you identify the purpose of the meeting, the people who need to attend if an outcome/decision is to be reached, and how to keep the meeting running smoothly. Whether you are planning your first meeting or are experienced in a variety of roles (chairperson, minute-taker, etc) this "How to" book will reinforce your good meeting habits and help you recognize and overcome your shortfalls in this area. 5 stars. Oct 8, 2013 I got to use this book as a tool into understanding the mechanism of a meeting environment. It helps getting through the dynamics of formal or informal meetings and I liked how the author takes note of each one of the elements (list making, agenda, position, and attitude) and explains the basics. In the end, if you're a firm believer that timing is everything, you get to see examples of how to manage it. Good reading material. 5.0 out of 5 stars. Sep 2013. Every manager should read this book...I found Ms. Hood's "How To" book to be remarkably well organized and insightful...All in all an accessible, useful resource. 5.0 out of 5 stars. Great Nov 29, 2014 This really reminds you what having a meeting is all about
Описание: This book presents an exploratory analysis based on proteomic and ionomics studies comparing the blood serum of patients with bipolar disorder (BD), healthy controls, patients with schizophrenia (SCZ), and patients with other disorders (OD) in order to identify biomarkers of BD.
Описание: This book presents an exploratory analysis based on proteomic and ionomics studies comparing the blood serum of patients with bipolar disorder (BD), healthy controls, patients with schizophrenia (SCZ), and patients with other disorders (OD) in order to identify biomarkers of BD. Bipolar disorder is a psychiatric condition that affects thousands of people worldwide. The absence of biomarkers for BD has resulted in misdiagnosis and ineffective treatment in some patients, causing additional health problems and high costs for health systems. As such, this book evaluates various strategies for sample preparation for proteomic and ionomic studies in order to simplify complex serum samples and allow the quantification of chemical species (proteins and metal ions), which are potential candidates for BD biomarkers. In addition, it describes the development of a new membrane-based methodology for extracting urine proteins to be used in biomarker discovery.
Описание: The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is the research, development and evaluation agency of the US Department of Justice. The NIJ is dedicated to improving knowledge and understanding of crime and justice issues through science. NIJ provides objective and independent knowledge and tools to reduce crime and promote justice, particularly at the state and local levels.
Each year, the NIJ publishes and sponsors dozens of research and study documents detailing results, analyses and statistics that help to further the organization's mission. These documents relate to topics like biometrics, corrections technology, gun violence, digital forensics, human trafficking, electronic crime, terrorism, tribal justice and more. This document is one of these publications.
