Photosynthesis: Theory and Applications in Energy, Biotechnology and Nanotechnology

April 11, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

Product Description
Photosynthesis is a metabolic pathway that converts light energy into chemical energy. Its initial substrates are carbon dioxide and water; the energy source is sunlight (electromagnetic radiation); and the end-products are oxygen and (energy-containing) carbohydrates, such as sucrose, glucose or starch. This process is one of the most important biochemical pathways, since nearly all life on Earth either directly or indirectly depends on it as a source of energy. It is a complex process occurring in plants, algae, as well as bacteria such as cyanobacteria. This book presents the latest research in the field with special emphasis on energy, biotechnology and nanotechnology.

Ben-Gurion University researcher receives rappaport prize for excellence in biomedical research
( American Associates, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev ) Professor Cohen received the prize for her research that led to an innovative and pioneering product using algae to prevent cardiac tissue damage following acute myocardial infarction. The hydrogel, is a resorbable liquid polymer that is administered through the coronary artery during standard catheterization and flows into the damaged …
