Advanced and Modern Approaches for Drug Delivery explores novel
approaches currently used for drug delivery, including the must
up-to-date techniques and technology. The approaches discussed
allow pharmaceutical scientists to design effective drug delivery
systems or devices for the management and treatment of numerous
diseases and conditions. Detailed information on a wide variety of
subjects, including dendrimers, lipid nanostructures, solid lipid
nanoparticles, stimuli-responsive smart systems, self-assembled
protein-drug nanoparticles, nanoconjugate formulations, nanofibers,
iontophoretic systems, microneedle systems, ultra-sound triggered
systems, targeted carrier-based intracellular delivery systems,
resealed erythrocyte-based systems, 3 D-printing tool,
site-specific monoclonal antibodies, and bio-inspired systems are
all comprehensively discussed. With contributions from those in
academia and industry, this book is an excellent reference for all
those needing to understand drug delivery systems.

Food Safety and Quality Systems in Developing Countries: Volume
III: Technical and Market Considerations is a practical resource
for companies seeking to supply food products from developing
countries to developed country markets or to transnational business
located in developing countries. It explores practical approaches
to complying with food safety and quality systems requirements,
backed by the science-based approaches used in the major markets
applied in a developing country context. It explores the topic from
the perspective of agribusiness value chains and includes
deconstructions of regulatory and market channel-specific technical
requirements in North America, Europe, and other major markets.
Volume III builds on the platforms laid by the previous two
volumes, providing guidance from industry-leading experts on
addressing regulatory and market-specific microbiological,
chemical, packaging and labelling, supply chain, and
systems-related food safety and quality compliance requirements.
This book addresses technical and market-determined standards that
value chain participants in developing countries face supplying
developed country markets or transnational firms, including hotels,
major multiples, and quick serve restaurant brands.
Have you, a friend or family member been living with undiagnosed autism?
For every visibly Autistic person you meet, there are countless 'masked' people who pass as neurotypical. They don't fit the stereotypical mould of Autism and are often forced by necessity to mask who they are, spending their entire lives trying to hide their Autistic traits. In particular, there is evidence that Autism remains significantly undiagnosed in women, people of colour, trans and gender non-conforming people, many of whom are only now starting to recognise those traits later in life.
Blending cutting-edge research, personal insights and practical exercises for self-expression, Dr Devon Price examines the phenomenon of 'masking', making a passionate argument for radical authenticity and non-conformity. A powerful call for change, Unmasking Autism gifts its readers with the tools to uncover their true selves and build a new society - one where everyone can thrive on their own terms.
Molecular Medical Microbiology, Third Edition presents the latest
release in what is considered to be the first book to synthesize
new developments in both molecular and clinical research. The
molecular age has brought about dramatic changes in medical
microbiology, along with great leaps in our understanding of the
mechanisms of infectious disease. This third edition is completely
updated, reviewed and expanded, providing a timely and helpful
update for microbiologists, students and clinicians in the era of
increasing use of molecular techniques, changing epidemiology and
prevalence, and increasing resistance of many pathogenic bacteria.
Written by experts in the field, chapters include cutting-edge
information and clinical overviews for each major bacterial group,
along with the latest updates on vaccine development, molecular
technology and diagnostic technology.
This unprecedented work is an invaluable resource for therapists
treating patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder
(OCPD), for individuals suffering from OCPD, and for friends,
family, and coworkers of those with OCPD. Although a significant
number of individuals suffer from obsessive-compulsive personality
disorder (OCPD), most of these people see themselves as being
perfectly normal. In actuality, they are missing out in life due to
their being compulsively prompt, counterproductively
perfectionistic, and excessively penurious. This book explains what
OCPD is, making it clear how it differs significantly from OCD;
explains the thought processes and desires that give rise to the
counterproductive defense mechanisms of OCPD; and identifies the
approaches and methods that can allow such afflicted individuals to
break through their character armoring and become rehumanized. In
this book, Martin Kantor, MD, presents information to defuse the
many manifested symptoms of OCPD: anxiety, indecision, unreasonable
perfectionism, and difficulty in compromising. His explanations and
methods will give the hopeless succor, move the stalled forward,
and foster interpersonal cooperation and flexibility in the
stubborn, while simultaneously enhancing the OCPD individual's
social performance thus increasing his or her chances for
interpersonal, relational, and occupational success. Kantor also
identifies the social manifestations of OCPD and describes how to
move idiosyncratic, rigid bureaucracies toward accomplishing what
should be their most important mission: helping those who are in
need and seeking comfort. Explains how OCPD compromises not only
the quality of life of its sufferers but also the lives of many of
the people that surround each OCPD individual Examines OCPD from
multiple perspectives, documenting the author's eclectic treatment
approach that views OCPD from multiple vantage points, including
the psychodynamic, the interpersonal, and the cognitive-behavioral
Extends the discussion of OCPD to include OCPD-inspired
bureaucracies and how treating these toxic environments can lead to
substantially improved socioeconomic functioning worldwide Serves
therapists treating patients with OCPD; patients suffering from
OCPD; friends, family, and coworkers of those with OCPD; and
general readers interested in mental health issues Provides a bonus
section on self-help methods that can be employed by the OCPD
sufferer and those in the path of OCPD fallout
