Advances in Biosystems - by Xiaoli Li & Mostafa Gouda & Yong He (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Advances in Biosystems investigates the latest techniques for evaluating, detecting, measuring, and enhancing the functional bioactivities, chemical composition, and physicochemical characteristics of animal, plant, and environmental biosystems. This comprehensive interdisciplinary handbook provides detailed explanations for tracking functional molecules during various biological processes, along with practical methodologies for both laboratory and industrial applications. The book is organized into several key sections, each focusing on a different biosystem category. The first section covers cellular biosystems advances, including single-cell microsystems and tissue system biology of plants and animals, alongside biomass microsystems. Section two delves into agricultural biosystems advances, exploring innovations in animal, plant, and crop biosystems, as well as food hydrocolloids and biotechnological advancements. The third section addresses environmental biosystems, discussing colloidal biosystems, nano and micro-biosystems, chemical toxicology, eco-friendly biosystems, and green chemistry. Section four focuses on pharmaceutical biosystems, highlighting medical biosystems, human cellular metabolomics, nutrigenomics, and precision medicine applications. Finally, Section five presents in-depth analytical methods for tracking these various biosystems, including high-throughput technologies, deep learning, machine learning, bioinformatics models, and spectroscopic and sensor-based techniques. Advances in Biosystems offers essential insights and practical guidance on the latest developments and methodologies for biological systems research, serving as a valuable reference for researchers and academics across cell biology, microbiology, biotechnology, pharmaceutical science, agricultural science, food science, environmental science and related disciplines.
