Computational Approaches in Cheminformatics and Bioinformaticsby Rajarshi Guha; Andreas Bender
John Wiley & Sons 2012; US$ 115.00A breakthrough guide employing knowledge that unites cheminformatics and bioinformatics as innovation for the future Bridging the gap between cheminformatics and bioinformatics for the first time, Computational Approaches in Cheminformatics and Bioinformatics provides insight on how to blend these two sciences for progressive research benefits. It describes the development and evolution of these fields, how chemical information may be used for biological relations and vice versa, the implications of these new connections, and foreseeable developments in the future. Using algorithms and domains as workflow tools, this revolutionary text drives bioinformaticians to consider chemical structure, and similarly, encourages cheminformaticians to... more...
Antioxidative Stabilization Of Polymersby Y. A. Shlyapnikov; S. G. Kiryushkin; A. P. Mar'in
CRC Press 1996; US$ 199.95This monograph proceeds from a need to understand why the properties of polymers change, what can be done to avoid their degradation and how their performance can be maintained over a longer lifespan. It explains how the addition of antioxidants can inhibit or retard the degradation process. more...
