This book focuses on the prospects of fresh market waste management
in developing countries. It characterizes fresh market wastewater
and solid wastes, and highlights the human health impact of
corresponding waste management practices. With regard to treatment
technologies, the book discusses the anaerobic digestion of fresh
solid wastes; the application of natural coagulants for wastewater
treatment; the remediation of xenobiotics in wastewater using
nanotechnology; and biofilter aquaponic systems for nutrient
removal. All of these technologies are recent innovations, offer
several concrete advantages, and can be applied in developing
countries as non-central treatment systems. In addition, the book
covers electricity production from fresh solid wastes using
microbial fuel cells, demonstrating the potential held by recycling
fresh market wastewater and solid wastes.

This book reviews the consequences of improper disposal of
greywater into the environment and the most appropriate treatment
technologies for developing countries, focusing on the potential to
reuse greywater as a production medium for biomass and
bio-products. It also describes the quantities and qualitative
characteristics, as well as the common practice of discharging
greywater in developing countries, and highlights the associated
health risks. Further, it compares the management of greywater in
developed and developing countries and explores the advantages and
disadvantages of various treatment technologies, discussing the
reuse of greywater for irrigation purposes in arid and sub-arid
countries, especially in the Middle East. The book shows the
benefits of greywater and introduces low-cost technologies based on
the available local facilities can be used to discharge, reuse, and
recycle it.
This book examines how biotechnology can improve livestock breeding
and farming, and thereby also animal products. In the first
chapters the reader will discover which techniques and approaches
are currently used to improve animal breeding, animal health and
the value of animal products. Particular attention is given to
reproduction techniques, animal nutrition and livestock vaccines
that not only enhance animal health but also have a significant
effect on human health by ensuring safe food procurement and
preventing zoonotic diseases. In addition, modern biotechnology can
increase not only productivity but also the consistency and quality
of animal food, fiber and medical products. In the second part of
the book, issues such as how animal biotechnology could affect the
environment and the important topic of animal waste management are
explored. In the concluding chapter, the authors discuss future
challenges related to animal biotechnology. This work will appeal
to a wide readership, from scientists and professionals working in
animal production, to those in farm animal management and
veterinary science.

This book provides a list of concise extemporaneous ophthalmic
preparations, and standardizes the formulation of the products by
suggesting specific strength, route of administration, appropriate
vehicle, and method of preparation. Pharmaceutical industries have
greatly expanded their share of ophthalmic drugs in recent years.
However, physicians and pharmacists are frequently called to
prepare sterile products intended for ophthalmic use due to lack of
availability of licensed drugs in the market. This book contains
the most appropriate formulation of each medication based on
published and documented stability data. Extemporaneous Ophthalmic
Preparations is the first book of its kind, making it a unique and
valuable companion for many physicians and pharmacy practitioners
who are frequently engaged in the compounding of sterile ophthalmic
preparation.

the outcome of our results are very important in that we provide
basic information about the impacts of using one of the recent and
sophisticated pesticide application technologies. Also, these
results can help growers predict the results of using specific
insecticides, with adjustments in nozzles, application rates, etc
and their impacts in terms of biological efficacy, and finally the
long-term implications of the development of resistance under
different deposition scenarios. These "as needed adjustments" still
depend generally on the timely flow of accurate in-field
information on pests as they develop in individual fields. Lacking
such information, growers will continue to rely on the familiar
strategy of "treat all fields the same." Finally, I think this
study provides good evidence and support for the needs to expand
this approach with different pests, chemicals, and equipment under
field conditions.
