Mammalian Egg Transfer

Egg transfer was first performed in 1890 but for half a century it received scant attention. However since 1950 the technique has become increasingly widely used - in the laboratory for fundamental studies and more recently in practice both veterinary and medical to boost reproductive potential of genetically superior cattle and to overcome sterility due to impaired rubal function in women. As a result a considerable body of literature has accumulated totaling well in excess of a thousand references. But till now there has not been a single comprehensive text devoted solely to this subject. The present work was designed to meet that need at a time when the field is fast expanding with new techniques and approaches constantly being evolved. One need only cite the tremendous rate of progress in human egg transfer in the last three years. The work embraces laboratory and farm animals and primates including man altogether representing a total of 16 species. | Mammalian Egg Transfer

The Charnoly Body A Novel Biomarker of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics

Diversified physicochemical injuries trigger Charnoly body (CB) formation as pleomorphic electron-dense multi-lamellar stacks of nonfunctional mitochondrial membranes in the most vulnerable cell. Free radicals induce downregulation of mitochondrial DNA microRNA AgNOR and epigenetics to trigger CB molecular pathogenesis. CB is eliminated by energy (ATP)-driven lysosome-dependent charnolophagy as a basic molecular mechanism of intracellular detoxification to prevent acute and chronic diseases. Accumulation of CB at the junction of axon hillock and charnolosome (CS) at the synapses causes cognitive impairments; whereas nonspecific induction of CB causes GIT stress myelosuppression alopecia neurotoxicity cardiotoxicity and infertility in multidrug-resistant malignancies. Hence stem cell-specific CB charnolophagy and CS agonists/antagonists are introduced as novel charnolopharmacotherapeutics for the successful treatment of cardiovascular diseases neurodegenerative diseases infectious diseases drug addiction and cancer. Nanoparticles to improve drug delivery CS exocytosis and disease-specific spatiotemporal charnolosomics employing correlative and combinatorial bioinformatics boost mitochondrial bioenergetics through balanced diet exercise and antioxidants. The book will be of interest to medical scientists and practitioners. | The Charnoly Body A Novel Biomarker of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics

Impact of Improved Operation and Maintenance on Cohesive Sediment Transport in Gezira Scheme Sudan

Irrigated agriculture remains to be the main option to boost the economy in Sudan in general. It can rise the living standard of the majority of the population; particularly those who are attached to farming and livestock. With the expected increase in population in the next decades water management of large irrigation systems will become a key issue to increase productivity and assure future food security. Sediment transport in irrigation canals makes water management very complicated. This study focuses on water management in Gezira Scheme Sudan. This scheme is irrigated from the Blue Nile River which is characterized by a high sediment concentration. The aim of the study was to reduce the impact of fine sediment deposition in irrigation canals by improving the operation and maintenance procedures. A numerical model has been developed to simulate the cohesive sediment transport in irrigation canals. This model is a useful tool for the operators and decision makers to assess different options of operation in terms of sediment transport. This study found that sediment deposition in the canals can be minimized if the operation based on crop water requirement is adjusted at a certain period during the flood season. | Impact of Improved Operation and Maintenance on Cohesive Sediment Transport in Gezira Scheme Sudan

The book contains two sections: the first focuses on the analyses of control techniques; the second is dedicated to illustrating results of real-time applications. It also provides solutions for the output trajectory tracking problem of unknown nonlinear systems based on sliding modes and inverse optimal control scheme. This book on Discrete-time Recurrent Neural Control is unique in the literature with new knowledge and information about the new technique of recurrent neural control especially for discrete-time systems. The book is well organized and clearly presented. It will be welcome by a wide range of researchers in science and engineering especially graduate students and junior researchers who want to learn the new notion of recurrent neural control. I believe it will have a good market. It is an excellent book after all. — Guanrong Chen City University of Hong Kong This book includes very relevant topics about neural control. In these days Artificial Neural Networks have been recovering their relevance and well-stablished importance this due to its great capacity to process big amounts of data. Artificial Neural Networks development always is related to technological advancements; therefore it is not a surprise that now we are being witnesses of this new era in Artificial Neural Networks however most of the developments in this research area only focuses on applicability of the proposed schemes. However Edgar N. Sanchez author of this book does not lose focus and include both important applications as well as a deep theoretical analysis of Artificial Neural Networks to control discrete-time nonlinear systems. It is important to remark that first the considered Artificial Neural Networks are development in discrete-time this simplify its implementation in real-time; secondly the proposed applications ranging from modelling of unknown discrete-time on linear systems to control electrical machines with an emphasize to renewable energy systems. However its applications are not limited to these kind of systems due to their theoretical foundation it can be applicable to a large class of nonlinear systems. All of these is supported by the solid research done by the author. — Alma Y. Alanis University of Guadalajara MexicoThis book discusses in detail; how neural networks can be used for optimal as well as robust control design. Design of neural network controllers for real time applications such as induction motors boost converters inverted pendulum and doubly fed induction generators has also been carried out which gives the book an edge over other similar titles. This book will be an asset for the novice to the experienced ones. — Rajesh Joseph Abraham Indian Institute of Space Science & Technology Thiruvananthapuram India | Discrete-Time Recurrent Neural Control Analysis and Applications
