Colour is a sensation and as such it is a subjective and incommunicable quantity. Colour measurement is possible because we can create a correspondence between colour sensations and the light radiations that stimulate them. This correspondence concerns the physics of light radiation, the physiology of the visual process and the psychology of vision. Historically, in parallel to standard colorimetry, systems for colour ordering have been developed that allow colour specifications in a very practical and concrete way, based on the direct vision of material colour samples arranged in colour atlases. Colour-ordering systems are sources of knowledge of colour vision, which integrate standard colorimetry. Standard Colorimetry: Definitions, Algorithms and Software: * Describes physiology and psychophysics useful to understand colorimetry * Considers all the photometric and colorimetric systems standardized by CIE (XYZ, CIELAB, CIELUV, LMS) * Presents colorimetric instrumentation in order to guide the reader toward colorimetric practice * Discusses colorimetric computation to understand the meaning of numerical colour specification * Considers colorimetry in colour syntheses and in imaging colour reproduction * Includes ready-to-use, freely-available software, Colorimetric eXercise , which has multiple toolboxes dedicated to * displaying CIE systems, atlases, any colour and its whole numerical specification * colour-vision phenomena and tests Standard Colorimetry: Definitions, Algorithms and Software is an accessible and valuable resource for students, lecturers, researchers and laboratory technicians in colour science and image technology.

Cosmetics are substances used to enhance the appearance or odour of the human body. The manufacture of cosmetics is currently dominated by a small number of multinational corporations that originated in the early 20th century, but the distribution and sale of cosmetics is spread among a wide range of different businesses. This book presents current research data in the study of cosmetic types, allergies to and applications. Some topics discussed herein are suncare products; the hazards of traditional cosmetics used in the Islamic world; occupational contact dermatitis to cosmetics; heavy metals exposure from some cosmetic consumer products; and solid lipid nanoparticles used in cosmetic applications.

Microalgae can be future resource for industrial biotechnology In current energy crisis era, microalgae are under tremendous research focus for the production of biodiesel due to their high photosynthetic efficiency, growth rate and high lipid content compared to territorial plants. However, the large-scale production of algal biomass and downstream processing of harvested algae towards bio-fuels are facing several challenges from economic viability perspective. Apart from bio-fuels, the microalgae synthesize number of bio-molecules such as pigments (e.g., chlorophyll, carotenoid), protein (e.g., lectin, phycobiliprotein), and carbohydrates (e.g., agar, carrageenan, alginate, fucodian) which are available in the various forms of microalgal products. Therefore, developing a strategy for large-scale production and use of algal biomass for the co-production of these value-added macromolecules is thus imperative for the improvement of the economics of algal biorefinery. In the above context, this book covers three major areas (i) commercial-scale production of bio-molecules from microalgae, (ii) sustainable approach for industrial-scale operation, and (iii) optimization of downstream processes. Each of these sections is composed of several chapters written by the renowned academicians/industry experts. Furthermore, in this book, a significant weightage is given to the industry experts (around 50%) to enrich the industrial perspectives. We hope that amalgamate of fundamental knowledge from academicians and applied research information from industry experts will be useful for forthcoming implementation of a sustainable integrated microalgal biorefinery. This book highlights following. Explores biomolecules from microalgae and their applications Discusses microalgae cultivations and harvesting Examines downstream processing of biomolecules Explores sustainable integrated approaches for industrial scale operations Examines purification techniques specific for microalgal proteins, Omega 3 fatty Acids, carbohydrates, and pigments

Sensory evaluation is a scientific discipline used to evoke, measure, analyse and interpret responses to products perceived through the senses of sight, smell, touch, taste and hearing. It is used to reveal insights into the way in which sensory properties drive consumer acceptance and behaviour, and to design products that best deliver what the consumer wants. It is also used at a more fundamental level to provide a wider understanding of the mechanisms involved in sensory perception and consumer behaviour. Quantitative Sensory Analysis is an in-depth and unique treatment of the quantitative basis of sensory testing, enabling scientists in the food, cosmetics and personal care product industries to gain objective insights into consumer preference data vital for informed new product development. Written by a globally-recognised learer in the field, this book is suitable for industrial sensory evaluation practitioners, sensory scientists, advanced undergraduate and graduate students in sensory evaluation and sensometricians.

In the last two decades the EPA and other national and international agencies have placed increasingly strict regulations on the manufacture and use of synthetic colorants. The pigment and dye industry has had to develop the technology necessary to analyze and remediate pollutants in wastewater. Although these efforts have produced a considerable volume of information, until now, no single book has provided an organized, comprehensive treatment of the environmental chemistry of synthetic colorants.

Environmental Chemistry of Dyes and Pigments is the first comprehensive reference to address the environmental problems posed by synthetic colorants, and to provide a forum for the solutions proposed by industry, government, and academia. Focusing on developments in the field over the past two decades, it deals with all aspects of colored wastewater treatment, the disposal of dyes, analytical methods, toxicity, and regulatory questions.

In its coverage of wastewater treatment, this book addresses both the most commonly used methods and those specifically designed to address pollution problems at the source by analyzing for and removing dyes and pollutants from wastewater effluent. Throughout, real-world data on a wide variety of dyes and dye intermediates is provided, as well as cost-effective strategies for dealing with wastewater treatment.

In addition, several chapters are devoted to the perspectives of national and international experts on regulations governing the manufacture, handling, use, and disposal of synthetic dyes and pigments. The impact these regulations have had on both U.S. and foreign industry is also discussed.

A complete, comprehensive, and up-to-date guide to pollution prevention in the dyestuff and textile industries
