  • Characterization of Odorant Patterns by Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 96
    • English
    The volume has as primary focus multidimensional gas chromatography (heart-cutting systems, comprehensive 2D-GC systems and hybrid solutions) and its characteristic features for in depth investigation of complex fractions of odor-active volatiles. Contributions, from outstanding researchers in the field from Academia and industry, cover fundamentals aspects on the physiology of olfaction, the strategies to identify key-odorants from the bulk of detectable volatiles (sensomics), the principles of operation of multidimensional analytical platforms (i.e., comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography – GC×GC; heart-cut 2D-GC, hybrid systems), and the fundamental role of mass spectrometry in providing reliable and informative data. Insights on new systems design and configurations are also provided, including sample preparation and data processing strategies, as important steps of the whole analytical process. Real-world examples cover food volatiles, complex aroma mixtures, odors emitted from industrial plants, volatiles of interest in forensic and medical applications.
  • Sustainable Polylactide-Based Blends

    • 1st Edition

    • English
    Sustainable Polylactide-Based Blends provides a critical overview of the state-of-the-art in polylactide (PLA)-based blends, addressing the latest advances, innovative processing techniques and fundamental issues that persist in the field. Sections cover the fundamentals of sustainable polymeric materials, polylactide and polymer blends, current and upcoming processing technologies, structure and morphology characterization techniques for PLA and PLA-based blends, and the processing, morphology development, and properties of polylactide-based blends. Final chapters focus on current and future applications, market potential, key challenges and future outlooks. Throughout the book, theoretical modeling of immiscible polymer blends helps to establish structure-property relationships in various PLA-based polymer blends. With in-depth coverage of fundamentals and processing techniques, the book aims to support the selection of each processing method, along with an understanding of surface chemistry to achieve improved compatibility between phases.

    • Spanish
    Nueva edicion del texto de neuroanatomia mas didactico y mas ilustrado de nuestro portfolio que integra de forma excelente la neuroanatomia clinica con su aplicacion en el campo de la neurociencia. Los capitulos estan organizados por areas anatomicas, con analisis integrados de los sistemas sensoriales, motores y cognitivos, y estan dise?ados para integrar la neuroanatomia clinica con las practicas basicas y la aplicacion clinica de la neurociencia. La nueva edicion se estructura en un total de 35 capitulos que han sufrido una reestructuracion respecto a la edicion anterior con el fin de ofrecer una secuencia mas logica de contenidos y que, por tanto, faciliten su comprension. Una importante novedad es que se incorporan cuadros con informacion correspondiente a las "ciencias basicas" para reforzar los conocimientos que posteriormente se veran en la clinica. Los capitulos conservan su estructura homogenea y didactica. Se inician con un breve indice y a continuacion un apartado en donde se incluyen una pequea guia para el estudio del capitulo. A lo largo del capitulo se incluyen cuadros de correlacion clinica y al final cuadros de informacion esencial. A destacar su magnifica iconografia, con 464 ilustraciones (dibujos esquematicos, e imagenes de radiodiagnostico) que sin duda juegan un papel fundamental a la hora de clarificar las explicaciones del texto. Incluye la version electronica del libro en StudentConsult.com (contenido en ingles), que permite acceder al texto completo, las figuras y las referencias bibliograficas desde diversos dispositivos, casos practicos, imagenes de RMI adicionales y de autoevaluacion y un banco de programas de autoevaluacion (algunas de ellas con imagenes)..
