Książka dotyczy reaktorów adsorpcyjnych stosowanych do prowadzenia zintegrowanego procesu adsorpcji reaktywnej w układzie gaz-ciało stale oraz reaktorów chromatograficznych używanych najczęściej w układzie ciecz-ciało-stałe. Podano w niej ogólne metody modelowania tych procesów, szczegółowe sposoby modelowania obu omawianych rodzajów reaktorów, a także wyczerpujący przegląd literatury dotyczącej zastosowania procesów adsorpcji ...

First published in 1946, this classic textbook explores the general chemistry of the raw materials of a malting and brewing. It explains the biochemical properties and processes of malting, brewing and fermentation, making it an ideal companion for brewers, brewing enthusiasts and those interested in the chemical properties of beer. Contents include: Beer Brewing - Carbohydrates and Related - Substances - Fats and Related Substances - Proteins and Their Degradation Products - Tannins - Essential Oils, Bitter Acids, Resins, and Phytin - Enzymes, General Properties ...

The MYTOX association research platform, MYTOX 'Mycotoxins and Toxigenic Moulds' was established in 2007 and consists of more than 50 researchers from 12 research laboratories in the Ghent University Association. MYTOX deals with mycotoxin research in a multi-disciplinary way, based on four main themes: (1) mycotoxins; (2) toxigenic fungi; (3) mycotoxins and animal health; and (4) mycotoxins and human health. In this way, MYTOX tackles the mycotoxin issue along the production chain from the field to the end consumer, within the ‘One Health’ concept. ...

Studies of Drosophila melanogaster have led to molecular insights concerning biomolecular mechanisms of biology and disease including development, differentiation, cancer and aging. Wild-type Drosophila, unlike vertebrate mammals, selectively retains gamma-tocopherol over alpha- tocopherol. Urate-deficient Drosophila compared to wild-type had similar levels of glutathione but only 50% of the ascorbate levels. Dietary supplementation with ascorbate dramatically increased its level while chemically-defined diets led to rapid depletion of ascorbate ...

Science and technology are the most potent influences driving the modern world. Most science is done in laboratories but, apart from a generalized image of an anonymous building populated by white-coated figures, few people outside the sciences have any idea how such places come into existence or how they work. This memoir approaches both issues from the author's personal experience. Peter Day's career took him to many countries and laboratories, including the Royal Institution in London, arguably the oldest continuously operating laboratory in the ...

Cadmium (Cd) is an environmental toxicant of continuing public health concern worldwide, because total diet studies have shown that Cd is present in virtually all foodstuffs. Consequently, foods that are frequently consumed in large quantities, such as rice, potatoes, wheat, leafy salad vegetables, and other cereal crops, are the most significant dietary Cd sources. Moreover, Cd has chemical propensities that confer the potential to interfere with the physiological functions of calcium and zinc. Evidence of a wide range of diverse, toxic effects of Cd is ...
