This book presents selected papers from the 4th International Conference on Micro-Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, held at SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Ghaziabad, India, during 26–27 September 2020. It covers a wide variety of topics in micro-electronics and telecommunication engineering, including micro-electronic engineering, computational remote sensing, computer science and intelligent systems, signal and image processing, and information and communication technology.
This contributed volume compiles the latest improvements in the field of nanobiotechnology, with a special emphasis on microbial-synthesized nanoparticles. It focuses on topics that comprise the microbials synthesized nanoparticles, their characterization, and applications in the field of medicine and biotechnology, which are organized in three parts, respectively. Ranging from micro-scale studies to macro, it covers a huge domain of nanotechnology in relevance to microbiology. Overall, the book portrays the importance of microbial processes in the sustainable production of nanomaterials to reduce the environmental burden caused by nanomaterials produced by chemical processes. The book is a ready reference for practicing students, researchers of nanobiotechnology, environmental biotechnology, and other allied fields likewise.
This book presents the select proceedings of the International Conference on Advances in Construction Materials and Management (ACMM 2021). It discusses the recent innovations towards construction management, building technology and new materials in practice in civil engineering. Various topics covered include architecture and urban planning, smart materials and structures, GIS in construction application, transportation materials and engineering, geotechnical applications in construction, energy and sustainability, green building technologies and materials and construction management. The book will be useful for beginners, researchers and professionals working in the area of civil engineering.
Vector-borne diseases are a major health problem in South-East Asia and in other parts of the world. There are about 4,500 mosquito species in existence; species belonging to the Anopheles genus transmit malaria. Combating malaria is part of the Millennium Development Goals, and vector control is a key strategy both regionally and globally. Therefore, the review and dissemination of information on vector species is critically important. Most of the anophelines that are involved in the transmission of malaria in South and South-East Asia have been identified as species complexes. Members of a species complex are reproductively isolated evolutionary units with distinct gene pools and hence they differ in their biological characteristics. In 1998 WHO published Anopheline Species Complexes in South-East Asia. New identification tools have been developed since then, and therefore this updated edition was needed. It summarizes work that has been done on anopheline cryptic species and will be highly valuable to researchers, field entomologists and malaria-control program managers.
Rhizosphere Engineering is a guide to applying environmentally sound agronomic practices to improve crop yield while also protecting soil resources. Focusing on the potential and positive impacts of appropriate practices, the book includes the use of beneficial microbes, nanotechnology and metagenomics. Developing and applying techniques that not only enhance yield, but also restore the quality of soil and water using beneficial microbes such as Bacillus, Pseudomonas, vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM) fungi and others are covered, along with new information on utilizing nanotechnology, quorum sensing and other technologies to further advance the science. Designed to fill the gap between research and application, this book is written for advanced students, researchers and those seeking real-world insights for improving agricultural production. - Explores the potential benefits of optimized rhizosphere - Includes metagenomics and their emerging importance - Presents insights into the use of biosurfactants
Indian Anophelines is the first book of its kind on the fauna of anopheline mosquitoes from India. The following aspects of mosquito systematics, biology and distribution are described: Worldwide distribution of anophelines in 12 malaria epidemiological zones, Reported distribution of anophelines in India; Bio-ecology and behaviour of mosquitoes; Updated vector status; Pictorial keys; Bibliography; and Glossary. Indian Anophelines assume special importance because of the deteriorating malaria situation in India, complicated by vector resistance to insecticides, ecological succession of mosquitoes, invasion of mosquitoes to new areas, as also their disappearance from certain areas. As a resul...
