    Laboratory Techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Volume 6, Part 2: An Introduction to Radioimmunoassay and Related Techniques discusses the fundamentals of radioimmunoassay. The book is comprised of 14 chapters that establish the common ground of other assay of the same type. The text also covers the preparation and use of materials, as well as the interpretation of results. The selection will be of great use to chemists who are involved with experiments that requires utilization of radioimmunoassay.

    Studies in Inorganic Chemistry 2, Phosphorus: An Outline of Its Chemistry, Biochemistry and Technology, Second Edition deals with the organic, inorganic, biochemical, physical, environmental, and technical aspects of phosphorus chemistry. This book is composed of 11 chapters and starts with a brief background of phosphorus with the recognition of three major allotropic modifications of elemental phosphorus. The chemical composition of phosphorus is analyzed as containing either three, four, five, or six oxygen atoms linked to a central phosphorus atom. Simple phosphorus nitrides and other related compounds are also dealt with, including compounds with P-NH2 linkages, P-NF2 linkages, and amides with P-N and P-C linkages. One kind of orthophosphate esters is analyzed, because it is numerous, involved in many life processes, and has various applications in industry and the sciences. Phosphorus sulfur compounds, polyphosphines, ring compounds, and high polymers are also described. This book further discusses the production through the combination of phosphine with borane that gives rise to more varieties of possible phosphorus-boron hydrides, and then explains the simplest but a hypothetical compound known as H2b-Ph2. Attention is also given to the preparation and study of metal-coordination compounds, of which the P atom retains at least an approximate tetrahedral bond configuration. Finally, the chemical methods for the detection and estimation of phosphorus in a compound are explained, where a prior oxidation and/or hydrolysis should first be considered. This text is intended for university undergraduate levels in the discipline of general chemistry. This book can also be a useful reference for research workers and technologists dealing with phosphorus chemistry.

  • Geomathematics

    Mathematical Background and Geo-Science Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • F.P. Agterberg
    • English
    Developments in Geomathematics, 1: Geomathematics: Mathematical Background and Geo-Science Applications focuses on advanced concepts in petrology, economic geology, sedimentology, and structural geology. The publication first elaborates on the use of mathematical models in geology, review of calculus, and elementary matrices. Discussions focus on spectral components of a matrix, canonical form, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors, linear equations, method of pivotal condensation, determinants, differential calculus, complex numbers, scientific methods in geology, and mathematical techniques in use. The book also ponders on geometry, factor analysis, probability and statistics, and frequency distributions and functions of independent random variables. Topics include probability generating functions, maximum likelihood and other methods of estimation, age determinations for structural provinces in the Canadian shield, discrete and continuous frequency distributions, calculus of probabilities, and binomial distribution. The text examines spatial variability of multivariate systems, calculation of preferred orientations from vectorial data, and multivariate stochastic process-models with applications to the petrology of basalts. The publication is best recommended for advanced geology students, research workers, and teachers with an interest in using mathematical techniques for problem-solving.

  • Landslides And Their Control

    • English
    Landslides and Their Control provides information on slope stability; the origin of slope movements; and methods on how they are investigated, controlled, and prevented. The book covers topics such as soil and rock mechanics; the influence of ground water on landslides; as well as other factors that produce sliding movement. The book also includes the different types of landslides as well as examples from different territories; its investigation, interpretation of stability, and stability analysis; and corrective measures involved. The monograph is recommended for geologists who would like to know more about the nature of landslides and how they can be prevented, especially those who work in service for the government.
