Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anderson and Renault (1999) show that when search cost is needed to evaluate any product, a U-shaped relationship exists between equilibrium price and product differentiation. This paper revisits this relationship by incorporating partial-depth search in a sequential search process which allows consumers to evaluate a subset of product attributes. We show that, when search depth is endogenous, the relationship is either always positive or N-shaped, depending on the elasticity of the hazard rate function of utility distribution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper compares consumers' optimal search behaviors and firms' strategic reactions in prices under two modes of search: parallel search vs. sequential search, with incorporation of partial search depth which measures the amount of information to evaluate for a product. Our analysis shows a series of new results: when products are evaluated partially, search depth is greater under sequential search than under parallel search; consumers search (on average) more products either under parallel search or under sequential search, depending on whether partial-depth search is chosen; equilibrium price is higher under parallel (sequential) search when search cost is high (low). Interestingly, sequential search might yield higher equilibrium prices with fewer products searched, compared to parallel search.

This book was released on 2000-05-31 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to common belief, infectious diseases are not as well under control as we would like. We are now at a crossroads regarding the impact of the environment on infectious diseases. Renewed interest in biological weapons and the emergence of new pathogens, coupled with a better understanding of the impact of infectious agents on other conventional diseases, has led us to realise that we can no longer remain complacent about the impact of infectious agents on human, animal and crop health. The present book first discusses current and emerging military and civilian policies on the environment. In addition, the impact of environmental biology on the future of space exploration is discussed, especially in reference to the Mars mission. There follows a discussion of the state of bacteria in the environment, with a presentation of current and emerging techniques of microbial investigation. Finally, two case studies are presented on the impact of these techniques on both political and environmental problems.

This book was released on 2011-09-26 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book that highlights mass spectrometry and its application in characterizing proteins and peptides in drug discovery An instrumental analytical method for quantifying the mass and characterization of various samples from small molecules to large proteins, mass spectrometry (MS) has become one of the most widely used techniques for studying proteins and peptides over the last decade. Bringing together the work of experts in academia and industry, Protein and Peptide Mass Spectrometry in Drug Discovery highlights current analytical approaches, industry practices, and modern strategies for the characterization of both peptides and proteins in drug discovery. Illustrating the critical role MS technology plays in characterizing target proteins and protein products, the methods used, ion mobility, and the use of microwave radiation to speed proteolysis, the book also covers important emerging applications for neuroproteomics and antigenic peptides. Placing an emphasis on the pharmaceutical industry, the book stresses practice and applications, presenting real-world examples covering the most recent advances in mass spectrometry, and providing an invaluable resource for pharmaceutical scientists in industry and academia, analytical and bioanalytical chemists, and researchers in protein science and proteomics.
Download or read book The Practices of Human Genetics written by Michael Fortun and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That concern about human genetics is at the top of many lists of issues requiring intense discussion from scientific, political, social, and ethical points of view is today no surprise. It was in the spirit of attempting to establish the basis for intelligent discussion of the issues involved that a group of us gathered at a meeting of the International Society for the History, Philosophy, and Social Studies of Biology in the Summer of 1995 at Brandeis University and began an exploration of these questions in earlier versions of the papers presented here. Our aim was to cross disciplines and jump national boundaries, to be catholic in the methods and approaches taken, and to bring before readers interested in the emerging issues of human genetics well-reasoned, informative, and provocative papers. The initial conference and elements of the editorial work which have followed were generously supported by the Stifterverband fUr die Deutsche Wissenschaft. We thank Professor Peter Weingart of Bielefeld University for his assistance in gaining this support. As Editors, we thank the anonymous readers who commented upon and critiqued many of the papers and in tum made each paper a more valuable contribution. We also thank the authors for their understanding and patience.
