    Keywords: Pharmaceutical chemistry. ; Pharmacology. ; Clinical biochemistry. ; Pharmaceutics. ; Pharmacology. ; Medical Biochemistry.
    Description / Table of Contents: Route-Specific Challenges in the Delivery of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs -- Optimizing the Formulation of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs -- Solid-State Techniques for Improving Solubility -- Mechanical Particle-Size Reduction Techniques -- Co-solvent and Complexation Systems -- Injectable Formulations of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs -- Lipid-Based Formulations -- Structured Development Approach for Amorphous Systems -- Melt Extrusion -- Spray-Drying Technology -- Pharmaceutical Cryogenic Technologies -- Precipitation Technologies for Nanoparticle Production -- Emerging Technologies to Increase the Bioavailability of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs -- Scientific and Regulatory Considerations for Development and Commercialization of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs.
    Abstract: The objective of this third edition is to consolidate within a single text the most current knowledge, practical methods, and regulatory considerations pertaining to formulations development with poorly water-soluble molecules. A pharmaceutical scientist’s approach toward solubility enhancement of a poorly water-soluble molecule typically includes detailed characterization of the compound’s physiochemical properties, solid-state modifications, advanced formulation design, non-conventional process technologies, advanced analytical characterization, and specialized product performance analysis techniques. The scientist must also be aware of the unique regulatory considerations pertaining to the non-conventional approaches often utilized for poorly water-soluble drugs. One faced with the challenge of developing a drug product from a poorly soluble compound must possess at a minimum a working knowledge of each of the above mentioned facets and detailed knowledge of most. In light of the magnitude of the growing solubility problem to drug development, this is a significant burden especially when considering that knowledge in most of these areas is relatively new and continues to develop. Highlights the most recent advancements reported in the literature on technologies to improve the dissolution and bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs Provides a comprehensive discussion of new technologies developed and recently over 40% updated new content Essential read for scientists and researchers in pharmaceutical, chemical, and agricultural industries since over 80% of newly discovered drugs are poorly water soluble.

    Description / Table of Contents: Chapter 01 Rural Sustainability: challenges and opportunities -- Chapter 02 Case study: Rural revitalization in Hong Kong -- Chapter 03 Rural Sustainability: six core dimensions -- Chapter 04 Conclusion and the future of rural communities.
    Abstract: This book highlights the challenges and opportunities of (re)constructing a sustainable rural community on the outskirts of the urban community. Based on knowledge and experience accumulated through implementing a rural revitalisation project in Hong Kong since 2013, the book provides an in-depth analysis of a case study along with related concepts from the literature. In particular, the concept of rural resilience is broken down and used to examine how communities at the urban-rural interface can leverage their position and connections to (re)create vibrant sustainable communities. The revitalisation project was showcased in the databases of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)’s Equator Initiative and the International Partnership for the Satoyama Initiative (IPSI) as well as achieving Special Recognition for Sustainable Development in the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Awards for Cultural Heritage Conservation in 2020. This book teases out the key issues in the process of revitalising a rural community in the peri-urban context and examines the complexities embedded in each issue and how they can be addressed in the quest for rural sustainability.

    Abstract: This multidisciplinary book provides new insights and hope for sustainable prosperity given recent developments in economics – but only if swift and strong actions consistent with Earth’s biophysical limits and principles of justice are universally taken. It is one thing to put limits on resource throughput and waste generation to conform with the ecosphere’s biocapacity. It is another thing to efficiently allocate a sustainable rate of resource throughput and ensure it is equitably distributed in the form of final goods and services. While the separate but interdependent decisions regarding throughput, distribution, and allocation are the essence of ecological economics, dealing with them in a world that needs to cure its growth addiction requires a realistic understanding of macroeconomics and the fiscal capacity of currency-issuing central governments. Sustainable prosperity demands that we harness this understanding to carefully regulate the rate of resource throughput and manipulate macroeconomic outcomes to facilitate human flourishing. The book begins by outlining humanity’s current predicament of gross ecological overshoot and laments the half-century of missed opportunities since The Limits to Growth (1972). What was once economic growth has become, in many high-income countries, uneconomic growth (additional costs exceeding additional benefits), which is no longer advancing wellbeing. Meanwhile, low-income nations need a dose of efficient and equitable growth to escape poverty while protecting their environments and the global commons. The book argues for a synthesis of our increasing knowledge of the ecosphere’s limited carrying capacity and the power of governments to harness, transform, and distribute resources for the common good. Central to this synthesis must be a correct understanding of the difference between financial constraints and real resource constraints. While the latter apply to everyone, the former do not apply to currency-issuing central governments, which have much more capacity for corrective action than mainstream thinking perceives. The book joins the growing chorus of authoritative voices calling for a complete overhaul of the dominant economic system. We conclude with policy recommendations based on a new economics that, if implemented, would come close to guaranteeing a sustainable and prosperous future. Upon reading this book, at least one thing should be crystal clear: business as usual is not a viable option.

    Call number: ZSP-124-57
    In: ANARE research notes
    Description / Table of Contents: During the ADBEX III cruise (September to December 1985) to the western Prydz Bay region, Antarctica, nine shallow hauls (0-200 m), six deep hauls (200-1000 m) and one target trawl were made with a RMT 1+8 net, as well as eleven vertical hauls with an ORI-2000 net. From these samples abundance of euphausiids, notably krill Euphausia superba, and other zooplankton was investigated. A diving program was also carried out to observe and collect Euphausia superba from under the pack-ice. For postlarval krill, size (length, weight), sex and maturity composition are reported.

    Description / Table of Contents: Humankind has pervasively influenced the Earth's atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere and cryosphere, arguably to the point of fashioning a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene. To constrain the Anthropocene as a potential formal unit within the Geological Time Scale, a spectrum of indicators of anthropogenically-induced environmental change is considered, and shown as stratigraphical signals that may be used to characterize an Anthropocene unit, and to recognize its base. This volume describes a range of evidence that may help to define this potential new time unit and details key signatures that could be used in its definition. These signatures include lithostratigraphical (novel deposits, minerals and mineral magnetism), biostratigraphical (macro- and micro-palaeontological successions and human-induced trace fossils) and chemostratigraphical (organic, inorganic and radiogenic signatures in deposits, speleothems and ice and volcanic eruptions). We include, finally, the suggestion that humans have created a further sphere, the technosphere, that drives global change.
