Elastomeric Proteins: Structures, Biomechanical Properties, and Biological Roles

Cambridge University Press, Februar 2010, 416 S., Paperback, GBP 40.00

Elastic proteins occur in a wide range of biological systems where they have evolved to fulfill precise biological roles. The best known include proteins in vertebrate muscles and connective tissues, such as titin, elastin, fibrillin and spider silks. Interest in elastomeric proteins is currently high for several reasons. Firstly, they have biological and medical significance, particularly in human disease. Secondly, the unusual properties of proteins such as spider silks provide opportunities to develop novel materials. Thirdly, the development of scanning probe microscopy makes it possible to study structures and biomechanical properties of these proteins at the single molecule level.

Encapsulation Technologies for Active Food Ingredients and Food Processing

Springer-Verlag, 2010, 400 S., Geb., EUR 149.75

Consumers prefer food products that are tasty, healthy and convenient. Encapsulation is an important way to meet these demands by delivering food ingredients at the right time and right place. For example, encapsulates may allow flavour retention, mask bad tasting or bad smelling components, stabilize food ingredients and/or increase their bioavailability. Encapsulation may also be used to immobilise cells or enzymes in the production of food materials or products, such as fermentation or metabolite production.

Moderne mathematische Methoden der Physik 1

Springer-Verlag, Dezember 2009, 473 S., Kt., EUR 39.95

Der große Vorzug dieses Lehrbuchs liegt in seiner kompromisslosen Konzentration auf begriffliche Klarheit bei bewusstem Verzicht auf für Physiker irrelevante Details. Es richtet sich u.a. an Studierende von Master-, Aufbau-, Graduierten- und Promotionsstudiengängen im Bereich der theoretischen und mathematischen Physik. Die Auswahl des Stoffes deckt das Spektrum mathematischer Konzepte und Methoden ab, die für die heutige Physik relevant sind. Die Lehrinhalte werden unterstützt durch geeignete Illustrationen und ein breites Angebot von sinnvollen Übungsaufgaben. Die meisten Behauptungen werden auch bewiesen oder hergeleitet, doch handelt es sich nur im Ausnamefall um die detaillierte Ausführung eines mathematisch rigorosen Beweises. Zumeist ist es eine recht knappe Darstellung des prinzipiellen Gedankengangs, unterstützt durch Veranschaulichung oder physikalische Motivationen.
