Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In biochemistry, a metalloprotein is a generic term for a protein that contains a metal cofactor. The metal may be an isolated ion or may be coordinated with a nonprotein organic compound, such as the porphyrin found in hemoproteins. In some cases, the metal is co-coordinated with a side chain of the protein and an inorganic nonmetallic ion. This kind of protein-metal-nonmetal structure is seen in iron-sulfur clusters Metalloproteins deals with all aspects related to the intracellular and extracellular metal-binding proteins, including their structures, properties and functions. The biological roles of metal cations and metal-binding proteins are endless. They are involved in all crucial cellular activities. Many pathological conditions are related to the problematic metal metabolism. Research in metalloprotein-related topics is therefore rapidly growing, and different aspects of metal-binding proteins progressively enter curricula at Universities and even at the High School level on occasion. However, no key resource providing basic, but comprehensible knowledge on this rapidly expanding field exists. The Encyclopedia of Metalloproteins aims to bridge this gap, and will attempt to cover various aspects of metalloprotein/metalloproteomics and will deal with the different issues related to the intracellular and extracellular metal-binding proteins, including their structures, properties and functions. The goal is to cover exhaustively all catalytically and biologically crucial metal ions and to find at least one interacting protein for other metal ions. The Encyclopedia of Metalloproteins will provide a key resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, instructors, and professors interested in protein science, biochemistry, cell biology, and genetics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book gives a comprehensive review of the present state-of-the-art in ZnO R+D, including growth, doping, lattice dynamics, electric magnetic and optical properties. The emphasis is on the electric and optical properties, because this is the area where novel applications may be expected with highest promise. The book highlights not only the most recent results but gives both an overview of past research and of the present status -- not avoiding critical and controversial discussions of various aspects such as bank symmetries and laser processes. Intended to have long-lasting impact on ZnO R+D, this monograph addresses (post-)graduate students but also advanced scientists, who want to embark on ZnO research or are already involved, the present state of the art and assists them in avoiding duplication of old results (or mistakes).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Production and Properties of Zinc: A Treatise on the Occurrence and Distribution of Zinc Ore, the Commercial and Technical Conditions Affecting the Production of the Spelter, Its Chemical and Physical Properties and Uses in the Arts This book was undertaken originally as the introductory portion of a treatise on the metallurgy of zinc. Upon the completion of the latter, how ever, it appeared advisable for various reasons to limit it to a consideration of the purely technical questions involved in the extraction of zinc from 'its ores, or rather the concentrated products which are delivered by the miners for smelting. Although a knowledge of the physical and chemical 'iproperties of the metal, the occurrence of its ores, and the conditions which afiect the markets is of importance to the smelter, it is equally of impor tance to the miner and trader. It was thought therefore that a collection of the general commercial and technical data of the metal in a special treatise devoted solely to it would be useful to those who are engaged in the industry in the various ways, and with that in view the present book was prepared upon a considerable enlargement of the original plan.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Production and Properties of Zinc: A Treatise on the Occurrence and Distribution of Zinc Ore, the Commercial and Technical Conditions Affecting the Production of Spelter, Its Chemical and Physical Properties and Uses in the Arts, Together With a Historical and Statistical Review of the Ind This book was undertaken originally as the introductory portion of a treatise on the metallurgy of zinc. Upon the completion of the latter, however, it appeared advisable for various reasons to limit it to a consideration of the purely technical questions involved in the extraction of zinc from its ores, or rather the concentrated products which are delivered by the miners for smelting. Although a knowledge of the physical and chemical properties of the metal, the occurrence of its ores, and the conditions which affect the markets is of importance to the smelter, it is equally of importance to the miner and trader. It was thought therefore that a collection of the general commercial and technical data of the metal in a special treatise devoted solely to it would be useful to those who are engaged in the industry in the various ways, and with that in view the present book was prepared upon a considerable enlargement of the original plan. It has been the aim in this book to present a comprehensive review of the world's resources of zinc ore, the conditions under which it is produced, the concentration of the crude ore into a product suitable for smelting, and a summary of the statistics of the industry from the earliest records down to the present time. The extent into which the subjects of ore supply and mechanical concentration of the crude ore have been entered into is due to their especial interest in this industry. There is perhaps no other important branch of metallurgy in which the exigencies of the smelting process impose such narrow limits as to the grade and character of the ore and make the preliminary preparation of the ore a matter of such great concern as in the metallurgy of zinc. In concluding this preface, I desire to make acknowledgment to all who have aided me in the preparation of the book, and especially to Mr. E. C. Moxham for notes as to zinc mining in Virginia, and Professor H. O. Hofman for permission to reproduce illustrations from his valuable treatise on the Metallurgy of Lead; also to the American Metal Co. for its statistical publications, and the Robins Conveying Belt Co., the Wetherill Separating Co. and Mr. W. P. Cleveland for illustrations supplied by them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humankind's use of zinc stretches back to antiquity, and it was a component in some of the earliest known alloy systems. Even though metallic zinc was not "discovered" in Europe until 1746 (by Marggral), zinc ores were used for making brass in biblical times, and an 87% zinc alloy was found in prehistoric ruins in Transylvania. Also, zinc (the metal) was produced in quantity in India as far back as the thirteenth century, well before it was recognized as being a separate element. The uses of zinc are manifold, ranging from galvanizing to die castings to electronics. It is a preferred anode material in high-energy-density batteries (e.g., Ni/Zn, Ag/Zn, ZnJair), so that its electrochemistry, particularly in alkaline media, has been extensively explored. In the passive state, zinc is photoelectrochemically active, with the passive film displaying n-type characteristics. For the same reason that zinc is considered to be an excellent battery anode, it has found extensive use as a sacrificial anode for the protection of ships and pipelines from corrosion. Indeed, aside from zinc's well-known attributes as an alloying element, its widespread use is principally due to its electrochemical properties, which include a well-placed position in the galvanic series for protecting iron and steel in natural aqueous environments and its reversible dissolution behavior in alkaline solutions.
