Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Binder of sperm proteins (BSP) are the major proteins characterized by their binding ability to heparin. These proteins originate from seminal vesicles and binds to the membrane of spermatozoa while passing through male reproductive tract. These proteins interact with heparin like glycosaminoglycans in female reproductive tract, which leads to the membrane destabilisation by rearrangement of phosphatidyl choline and cholesterol efflux. Much less research work has been carried out on Binder of sperm proteins in buffalo. This study was carried out to confirm the presence of BSP A3like proteins in buffalo. The localisation of BSP A3 like protein of buffalo on spermatozoa was found to be similar to that in bovine. This book provides a detailed review on Binder of sperm proteins and methods for production, characterisation and purification of recombinant protein in prokaryotic system.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Cryopreservation of spermatozoa has long been used in breeding of many animal species and is now spreading to aquaculture for the countless advantages like the reduced risk of transmitting infections,the production of hybrids with desirable characteristics, the creation of new selection lines useful for breeding and the setting up of sperm banks.Important factors in the cryopreservation of fish spermatozoa include the extender, the cryoprotectant, the freezing and thawing protocols and the cryo-container.An extender is a medium to dilute and to get a larger amount of diluted milt for artificial and induced breeding programs, while a cryoprotectant is added into an extended milt to protect the sperm from cold shock and cryo-toxicity during cryopreservation. Various combination of extender and cryoprotectant have been in vogue for cryopreservation of rainbow trout (Onchorhycus mykiss) spermatozoa but unfortunately, a suitable mixture of cryoprotectants and extender has not been studied for higher post thaw motility, fertility and hatching percentage. This book provides comprehensive coverage on cryopreservation techniques of gametes of rainbow trout with suitable cryodiluen.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Locating a manufacturing firm is a challenging task for most managers/owners due to its strategic nature. The significance of selecting perfect locations become important as the success or failure of a firm depends on its location. However, limited information is available on the relative importance of various site selection and operation strategic factors for firms in this sector when making investment and strategic decisions in spite of the continued growth of the industry. Hence, this study determines the importance and the possible relationships between the location decisions factors that influence operations strategy and how these affect the business performance of firms in the manufacturing industry.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -In this book, the author takes a look at the concept that people in the nations once termed ''third world countries''or the black race do not possess the intelligence to plan, organize and develop like their counterparts ,especially in the Western nations and observes that while he does not subscribe to the above concept- that the black race is inferior- in their regions of the black race under self-rule however, in the interest of their peoples, they have a lot to do in terms of development which will also show that they too are very intelligent people. He then went on to outline the reasons why their regions have not attained a high level of economic development and the steps to take to remedy the situation. This book is a must reading to all blacks, to policy makers and to all observers who are puzzled by the phenomenon of absence of lack of economic development in these regions ,in spite of the vast resources in some of them. 136 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The need to have graduates with proper knowledge on Education for Sustainable Development cannot be underestimated. The teacher has been identified as the key player to realize sustainable future. This then underscores the importance of producing Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) conscious generation of teachers by the Teacher training institutions. The book is on the research study on awareness about Education for Sustainable Development at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa-the regional leading school of Education in Eastern Africa that is based in Nairobi Kenya. The findings established partial knowledge about Education for Sustainable Development. The author recommends the need to mainstream ESD in the teacher training curriculum to produce graduates who are knowledgeable in ESD who will consequently educate for sustainable development.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The book deals with a special syntactic and semantic phenomenon in Hind¿, namely the constructions consisting of nominal and verbal constituents. Depending on the relations between them, some other words, e.g. postpositions, adverbs etc., can also be involved as components of the constructions. Their mutual relations correspond either to the object-predicate phrase, or such phrase may form a semantic, i.e. onomasiologic unit, which describes an action and is either the only name of the action, or a synonym of the simple verb. The study lists the most frequent syntagmas classified alphabetically according to the nominal components, which forms a kind of phrase book or syntagmaticon. It contains nearly eighteen hundred nouns and about five hundred verbs. The Syntagmaticon presents not only simple object-predicate-related constructions and onomasiologic units, but also many idiomatic expressions. It can serve as a manual of Hind¿ phraseology.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The concept of piercing the corporate veil has always been the subject of legal discussion and analysis. One of the striking features of a corporate entity is its separate legal existence being a creature of law. The concept of piercing the corporate veil strikes at the basic feature of corporate existence and has been used across the globe to identify the persons operating and managing the corporates. Though this concept has a uniform applicability, the circumstances and situations under which the courts have used this principle differ. The principle of piercing corporate veil assumes greater significance in today s world with focus on eliminating transnational white-collar crimes using the façade of corporate veil. It calls for uniform dealing of the subject by countries. The focus of this work is the discussion of evolution of concept, governing principles, circumstances under which courts have used this concept, recent trends in this field, and recommendations based on comparative trends in US vis-a-vis India. This work seeks to understand and analyse the law relating to piercing/lifting the corporate veil in the United States and India. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -One thing that is sure has not changed throughout these life years are human emotions; a simple example can be illustrated: when a young man died in battle, his mother cried whether that is today or back in Roman times. For a chartist, or a pure technical analyst, graphs are an illustration of current and historical human emotion, that seem to repeat itself through time. Cycles play an important part of human life but are very hard to prove, hence the reason why most of them remain theories. 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -One of the most actively followed and discussed topics in economics is the conduct of monetary policy. In this book monetary policy is discussed in light of modern economic theory, and an empirical analysis is performed for the case of the ECB. The book includes a detailed section on the theory and empirics of monetary policy rules, mostly from a New Keynesian perspective. This modelling approach has been the dominant framework in recent monetary theory and is also commonly employed by central banks. The book estimates an extensive set of linear as well as non-linear reaction functions for the first decade of common monetary policy; a time period that began with the successful introduction and consolidation of the euro but ended with a deep crisis. By making use of new datasets, including Eurosystem staff forecasts, the estimates in this book should be a significant update to previous efforts and provide new insight into ECB policy decisions. The theoretical overview and results should be of interest to people concerned with monetary policy, European macroeconomics, and to anyone curious about either general monetary policy or ECB policymaking specifically. 88 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Book Surface Thermodynamic Approach to HIV-Blood Interaction is a novel research on the interaction mechanism of the human immunodeficiency virus and the lymphocytes (white blood cells). The interaction was mathematically modeled and actual measurements obtained using a UV-Spectrophotometer. The collected data were employed in conjuction with the Lifshitz formula to obtain an expression for the Hamaker coefficient of the interaction process. The positive sense of the absolute hamaker coefficient of the infected blood samples is indicative of the attraction between the virus and the blood cells. A critical value of the hamaker constant of the serum as the intervening medium was obtained. This value if correlated in terms of an additive or drug to the serum that will favour repulsion between the virus and the lymphocytes will be the much desired solution. This invariably would mean a negative hamaker coefficient for the entire interacting system. 72 pp. Englisch.

It has been studied in many different disciplines and from several different perspectives; including geography, phenomenology, and anthropology. Sense of Place is both universal and specific and yet, it is hard to define. In piecing together its history we find a term unique to each individual and yet it has the capacity to unify communities and landscapes. Could it be a unifying theme for sustainability Perhaps, but first there needs to be more consensus on its meaning. This short history will hopefully begin to help build that consensus. 52 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The work aims to demonstrate, against all, still persisting prejudices, that Mihai Eminescu was not only a poetry genius, but also a great thinker, an encyclopaedic spirit, endowed with a special philosophical vocation. The work also intends to prove the fact that this philosophical vocation proved to be fertile not only in the field of the ontology, gnosiology and aesthetics, but also in the field of the politics, moral and law philosophy. It is true that the brilliant poet-thinker did not elaborated systemic treaties revealing an aggregate conception, as some epigones believe. At the same time his pieces of meditations, remained in manuscripts, or gathered in his published works, value, in most cases, more than all the treaties of some trained researchers, who proved to lack the capacity to scrutinize in depths the reality. 60 pp. Englisch.

Being in a highly mature, volatile and fragmented industry this may impose many challenges that would affect growth plans and objectives. This comes in tandem with other challenges such as supply/demand imbalance, accelerated technological advances, diffused knowledge, and product commoditization. By using the business model innovation approach, shipbrokers could gain a unique way of thinking which would help them create a leap in their customer value proposition. Instead of pursuing further cost reduction, process reengineering, further segmentation, increased marketing budgets or any other traditional strategy; shipbrokers can play the game differently. The business model innovation is an excellent tool for analysing strategic choices and developing systematic approach focusing on all the elements of the organisation. The result is an innovative customer value proposition that meets with customers' perceived value. 60 pp. Englisch.

With the fight for power having become an aim in itself, the parties do not pay the required attention to the prediction of the results of their political governing. Inadequate ambitions of political power are typical of irresponsible parties. Society fails to understand the responsibility standards of the parties, whereas broken promises of the parties are associated with lies. Trust to parties in Lithuania is catastrophically low.
