Download or read book Biophotonics Spectroscopy Imaging Sensing and Manipulation written by Baldassare Di Bartolo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-03 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes an impressive array of the current photonic-related technologies being used in the investigation of biological systems. The topics include various types of microscopy (fluorescence correlation microscopy, two-photon microscopy), sensitive detection of biological molecules, nano-surgery techniques, fluorescence resonance energy transfer, nano-plasmonics, terahertz spectroscopy, and photosynthetic energy conversion. The emphasis is on the physical principles behind each technique, and on examining the advantages and limitations of each.The book begins with an overview by Paras Prasad, a leader in the field of biophotonics, of several important optical techniques currently used for studying biological systems. In the subsequent chapters these techniques are discussed in depth, providing the reader with a detailed understanding of the basic physical principles at work. An excellent treatment of terahertz spectroscopy demonstrates how photonics is being extended beyond the visible region. Recent results in the use of femtosecond lasers as a tool to porate cell walls demonstrate that the manipulation of light can be used as a tool for the study and the treatment of biological systems. The field of Bio-photonics is broad and still growing, so cannot be covered comprehensively in one volume. But here the reader will find an introduction to some of the major tools used for studying biological systems, and at the same time a detailed, first-principles treatment of the physics behind these tools.

Download or read book Investigating the Elements of Plant Defense Mechanisms Within Plant Immune Responses Against Pathogens written by Katarzyna Otulak-Kozieł and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-11-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biotic stress can increase or reduce a plant's susceptibility to specific pathogens. A wide range of plant pathogens, i.e., viruses, bacteria, and fungi causing diseases, modulate different elements of plant defense mechanisms responses that influence disease and the physiological state of host plants. Nevertheless, plant hosts are not static and defenseless. Plants have developed active and dynamic complex defense mechanisms to protect themselves against different pathogenic stressors. Plants' defense mechanisms consist of multi-elements and can be determined by pre-formed, natural barriers or inducible defense responses directly activated upon detection of a pathogen. The inducible response is defined as ‘basal resistance’ or ‘innate immunity’ and is regulated by signal transduction and transcriptional networks. Moreover, plant responses to pathogens are finely tuned and complex at the immune receptor, cellular, proteome, epigenetic, and transcriptome levels. We can tell that a sophisticated molecular ‘arms race’ is taking place in the biological co-evolution of plant-pathogen interactions especially in developing novel elements involved in this interaction. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the broad spectrum and underlying elements of defense mechanisms in the interactions between plants and their pathogenic enemies will improve plant resistance to pathogens.
