This book was first published in 1985. For those working in molecular biology, this book describes techniques in plant genetic research and the practical application of genetic engineering to important crop plants such as the potato. The various chapters detail methods used for the genetic modification of plants, including protoplast fusion and the use of Agrobacterium and viruses as vectors for plant genes. The types of agricultural and industrial processes that will be improved by these technologies are indicated throughout the book. The contributors to this volume have prepared a comprehensive and pertinent bibliography that is a key to the literature. Their scientific reports will enlighten advanced students, research workers and technicians in botany, biochemistry and biotechnology. All scientists in plant molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry and agriculture should find this book a valuable aid in their understanding of current techniques, principles and applications in plant

This book initiates with the story of the evolution of firearms to enable the reader to appreciate the sequence of the development of firearms. It discusses different classes of small arms, their mechanics, internal and external ballistics. Further, it covers the design idea of barrels and actions, various operating principles and relevant discussion on ammunition and propellants. The principle of quality in the design of the small arms is also elaborated in the desired degree. The book brings out the relevance of modern manufacturing technologies like MIM and various surface treatments, and polymers for enhancement of product quality. To appreciate the sophistication of the architecture, the book presents the anatomical details of a few small arms of reputes. Provides complete understanding of overall small weapon systems Explores mechanics and physics of small arms

Introduction to Food Engineering, Sixth Edition brings a much more in-depth and didactic presentation of classic food engineering topics, such as the relationship of engineering to the chemistry, microbiology, nutrition and processing of foods. The book brings more quantitative analyses and problem-solving content, adding more descriptive topics at the end of each chapter to facilitate teaching and student comprehension. Topics cover engineering fundamentals, principles of food processing and preservation operations, solids handling, microbial bioreactions, inactivation and inhibition of microorganisms, and a brief Introduction to economic considerations and regulations. This approach facilitates comprehensive learning that has proven valuable beyond the classroom as a lifetime professional reference.

Separation Process Engineering, Fifth Edition is a thorough update of the leading textbook for undergraduate chemical engineering core courses in separation methods or in mass transfer and separations. Phillip K. Wankat's proven approach combines quantitative rigor with a tutorial presentation guided by educational principles and the needs of today's learners. Wankat covers all industrially important purification methods in detail, including newer separation methods largely absent from older texts. Since distillation remains central to most process industries, Wankat thoroughly addresses flash distillation, batch and continuous distillation, multicomponent distillation, extractive and azeotropic distillation, and other techniques, adding valuable new coverage of column flash and cyclic distillation. Readers will also find detailed coverage of other traditional separation methods, including liquid-liquid extraction, absorption, and stripping. The Fifth Edition contains an entirely new c

Acquire complete knowledge of the basics of air-breathing turbomachinery with this hands-on practical text. This updated new edition for students in mechanical and aerospace engineering discusses the role of entropy in assessing machine performance, provides a review of flow structures, and includes an applied review of boundary layer principles. New coverage describes approaches used to smooth initial design geometry into a continuous flow path, the development of design methods associated with the flow over blade shape (cascades loss theory) and annular type flows, as well as a discussion of the mechanisms for the setting of shaft speed. This essential text is also fully supported by over 200 figures, numerous examples, and homework problems, many of which have been revised for this edition.
