Indian Youth in a Transforming World: Attitudes and Perceptions


Indian Youth in a Transforming World: Attitudes and Perceptions By Peter Ronald DeSouza, Sanjay Kumar, Sandeep Shastri
Publisher: Sage Publications Pvt. Ltd | ISBN: 8132101715 | edition 2009 | PDF | 208 pages | 3,5 mb

This book comprises the first nationwide study based on face-to-face interviews with 5000 youth to capture the popular mood of this important demographic segment of contemporary India. It records their perceptions of various issues, ranging from modernity, development, globalization and unemployment, to leisure and lifestyle, social networks and family, and their hopes and aspirations for the future. While it breaks some myths about them, on one hand, it helps strengthen some commonly shared perceptions about them, on the other.

Natural Food Antimicrobial Systems


A.S. Naidu, "Natural Food Antimicrobial Systems"
CRC | 2000 | ISBN: 084932047X | 818 pages | PDF | 7,6 MB

Consumer concerns play a critical role in dictating the direction of research and development in food protection. The rising demand for minimally processed foods, growing concerns about the use of synthetic preservatives, and suspected links between the overuse of antibiotics and multi-drug resistance in microbes has made food safety a global priority.Natural Food Antimicrobial Systems focuses on advances in the technology of food safety. Numerous antimicrobial agents exist in animals and plants where they evolved as defense mechanisms. For example, the antimicrobial components of milk have been unraveled in recent years. The book covers how these components - such as lactoferrin - can be used as multifunctional food additives such as antioxidants and immuno-modulating agents.The six sections cover lacto-antimicrobials, ovo-antimicrobials, phyto-antimicrobials, bacto-antimicrobials, acid-antimicrobials, and milieu-antimicrobials. Each chapter provides background and historical information, molecular properties, antimicrobial activity, biological advantage, applications, safety, tolerance, and efficacy, and biotechnology. To satisfy the rapidly changing consumption patterns of the global market, the food processing industry continuously searches for new technologies in food science. Designed as a reference for academia and corporate R & D, Natural Food Antimicrobial Systems fills this need, offering in-depth information on emerging biotechnology, efficacy, and applications of natural food antimicrobial systems.

Medicinal Chemistry


Ashutosh Kar, "Medicinal Chemistry"
New Age Publications | 2007 | ISBN: 8122419704 | 960 pages | PDF | 30,5 MB

This is the third edition of a book written to serve both as a useful textbook for undergraduate courses in medicine and pharmacology, and also as a handy reference title for industry professionals. Each of the 27 chapters is sub-divided into 3 sections: (i) an introduction to the subject, (ii) a chemical or pharmacological classification -– each category of compound importantly contains International Non-proprietory Names (INN), British Approved Names (BAN) and United States Approved Names (USAN) wherever applicable, chemical names and proprietory names. (iii) the synthesis of various important members treated individually, a brief description of the synthesis, therapeutic applications of each compound, the necessary dosage applied in various diseases, and routes of administration. The book also deals well with the comprehensive mechanism of actions of the structure -– activity -– relationships (SARs); thus aiding the students' understanding. Clearly written, well referenced and fully up to date with recommended readings and self assessment questions, Prof. Kar has provided an accessible textbook for students of medicinal chemistry.
