The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a valuable and common model for researchers working in the fields of genetics, oncology and developmental sciences. This full-color atlas will aid experimental design and interpretation in these areas by providing a fundamental understanding of zebrafish anatomy. Over 150 photomicrographs are included and can be used for direct comparison with histological slides, allowing quick and accurate identification of the anatomic structures of interest. Hematoxylin and eosin stained longitudinal and transverse sections demonstrate gross anatomic relationships and illustrate the microscopic anatomy of major organs. Unlike much of the current literature, this book is focused exclusively on the zebrafish, eliminating the need for researchers to exclude structures that are only found in other fish.
A presente obra é fruto de longa e árdua pesquisa realizada pelos autores sobre os pioneiros que colonizaram o sudoeste do estado de Goiás e parte do estado de Mato Grosso, na metade do século XIX. Do estado de Minas Gerais, vieram para Goías os pioneiros José Manoel Vilela, José Antônio de Carvalho e Serafim José de Barros. De Franca, São Paulo, veio José Carvalho Bastos, juntando-se aos mineiros com o objetivo de criar gado nas pastagens naturais, ainda inexploradas, além do Rio Paranaíba. Um pouco mais tarde, chegou, também de Minas Gerais, outro pioneiro importante, que foi José Primo da Costa Lima. Posteriormente, filhos e netos desses pioneiros continuaram rumo ao oeste,...
Sobre a obra Ministério Público Estratégico - Violência de Gênero - 1a Ed - 2022 - Volume 1 O Ministério Público como instituição permanente, essencial à função jurisdicional do Estado, incumbido da defesa da ordem jurídica, do regime democrático e dos interesses sociais e individuais indisponíveis, sempre foi campo fértil de ideias e de protagonismos em inúmeras transformações jurídicas e sociais ao longo do tempo. Já a sociedade e o Estado encontram-se em constante movimento, devendo debater questões afetas a todos, sem qualquer tipo de distinção, visando ao aperfeiçoamento e à pacificação do convívio social. Partindo destas premissas, o Ministério Público do...
Despite success with treatment when diagnosed early, breast cancer is still one of the most fatal forms of cancer for women. Imaging diagnosis is still one of the most efficient ways to detect early breast changes with mammography among the most used techniques. However, there are other techniques that have emerged as alternatives or even complementary tests in the early detection of breast lesions (e.g., breast thermography and electrical impedance tomography). Artificial intelligence can be used to optimize image diagnosis, increasing the reliability of the reports and supporting professionals who do not have enough knowledge or experience to make good diagnoses. Biomedical Computing for B...
Como pensar as relações entre democracia, liberdade e felicidade? Por quais desvãos a busca pela felicidade pode desviar seu rumo e redundar em seu oposto, de tal maneira que indivíduos e sociedades se convertam, à sua revelia, em construtores de autoritarismo e de infelicidades? Que exemplos presentes existem de que as práticas individuais e coletivas que visam aos processos de democratização social da liberdade, das riquezas e da felicidade podem cumprir seu intento? Essas e outras interrogações tão difíceis quanto vitais foram desenvolvidas em perspectivas diversas nos ensaios que compõem este livro. Com intervenções de destacados pensadores e militantes de oito países, os debates suscitados pelas questões levantadas puseram em interlocução diversos núcleos de invenções democráticas.
Wastewater Treatment: Recycling, Management, and Valorization of Industrial Solid Wastes bridges the gap between the theory and applications of wastewater treatments, principles of diffusion, and the mechanism of biological and industrial treatment processes. It presents the practical applications that illustrate the treatment of several types of data, providing an overview of the characterization and treatment of wastewaters, and then examining the different biomaterials and methods for the evaluation of the treatment of biological wastewaters. Further, it considers the various types of industrial wastewater treatment, separation, and characterization of industrial wastewater. The book serves as a valuable resource for practicing engineers and students who are interested in the field of wastewater treatment. Features: Presents the latest technologies in water treatment, including nanomaterials for industrial wastewater Covers different treatments for various industrial wastewaters, including chemical and pharmaceutical waste Includes forward-thinking analysis including conclusions and recommendations for water reuse programs
This unique book provides an accessible introduction to both the scientific background and the key people involved in the discovery and use of radiation and radioactivity. It begins by providing a short history of radiation exposures and radiation poisoning; from the early inappropriate use of X-rays and radium cures through the misadventures of the Manhattan Project and the Chernobyl disaster, to the high-profile and deliberate poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko in London with polonium-210, which gave rise to worldwide media attention. The chapters provide a catalogue of deliberate criminal acts, unfortunate accidents, and inadvertent radiation exposures, exploring well-known events in detai...

What is it about the color blue? Blue is our favorite color globally—the darling of artists since the time of the pharaohs. So it’s startling to turn to the realms of nature and discover that “true” blue is truly rare. The sea and sky are blue, but we can’t bottle this trick of physics. And the few creatures, plants, and minerals that appear blue are almost all deceiving us. There’s no blue pigment in a blue jay—it would be brown but for how its feathers distort light. Kai Kupferschmidt has been enraptured by blue since childhood. In Blue, he invites readers on his globe-trotting quest to understand his favorite color— from Kyoto, where scientists are trying to engineer a blue rose, to Brandenburg, where conservationists hope to save the “little blue macaw.” Deep underground where blue crystals grow and miles overhead where astronauts gaze at our “blue marble” planet-wherever he finds this alluring color, it has a story to tell.
