Radioactive chemicals, while playing a vital role in many research and clinical techniques for nucleic acid analysis, are considered dangerous to the laboratory worker and require specialist handling and disposal equipment. This book describes how detailed molecular analysis of DNA and RNA can be performed using a range of non-radioactive chemicals giving similar if not better results than the radioactive methods. It will be a valuable book for molecular biologists and pathologists in academic and clinical research and also those working in clinical diagnostic laboratories.

The critically acclaimed laboratory standard, Methods in Enzymology, is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. The series contains much material still relevant today - truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences.

Meteorite research is fundamental to our understanding of the origin and early history of the Solar System. This book considers the mechanism and timing of core formation and basaltic volcanism on asteroids, and the effects of heating water-rich bodies. Results from meteorite research are placed in a galactic setting, and a theory is proposed for the origin of the planets of our Solar System. This advanced yet succinct introduction classifies meteorites in the context of their ages and origin.

Finding the UFO Crash at San Augustin documents the crash site of a UFO in early July 1947 in west-central New Mexico. Many extremely unusual finds, including an I-beam and part of an anti-gravity system, were put through rigorous testing, making Art's book a first. "Superbly researched," says Tim Good, a well known U.K. author. "Something out of this world crashed here in 1947." - George Noory. Dr. Brooks Agnew, a noted talk show host says, "Few have the ability to keep listeners interested the way Art Campbell does." Scholars say, "The finds Art and his team have made are phenomenal." Art's research was outstanding. He located the lost archeologists at Harvard University. Over 15 independent labs across the country were involved in this decade-plus long research. In depth interviews from those closely associated with eyewitnesses are revealed in these pages. “He has an exciting story to tell. I highly recommend his book.” – Stanton T. Friedman, nuclear physicist.

With the ever increasing spatial resolution in the characterization of microstructures, textures and chemical as well as isotopic patterns and the continuously improving sensitivity and precision in mineral chemical and isotopic analysis, increasing evidence has emerged indicating that phase relations in rocks from high-temperature environments may be modified during exhumation and cooling and that the original equilibrium phase relations may not have been preserved or that equilibrium may never have been attained fully even at high temperatures. This volume accompanies an EMU School intended bring contemporary research on mineral reaction kinetics to the  attention of young researchers and to put it into the context of recent developments in related disciplines. The school and the accompanying volume cannot give a comprehensive review of the current state of geomaterials research. Rather a selection of topics, methods and concepts, which the contributors deem currently most relevant and instructive, is presented. The aim is to provide a methodologically sound insight into the theoretical foundations of mineral reaction kinetics, to help students to become acquainted with contemporary methods in experimentation and analytical techniques, and to give worked examples that illustrate recent advances in geoscience based on an improved characterization and understanding of mineral and rock systems.

The latest investigation from acclaimed nuclear engineer and author James Mahaffey unearths forgotten nuclear endeavors throughout history that were sometimes hair-brained, often risky, and always fascinating. Whether you are a scientist or a poet, pro-nuclear energy or staunch opponent, conspiracy theorist or pragmatist, James Mahaffey's books have served to open up the world of nuclear science like never before. With clear explanations of some of the most complex scientific endeavors in history, Mahaffey's new book looks back at the atom's wild, secretive past and then toward its potentially bright future. Mahaffey unearths lost reactors on far flung Pacific islands and trees that were exposed to active fission that changed gender or bloomed in the dead of winter. He explains why we have nuclear submarines but not nuclear aircraft and why cold fusion doesn't exist. And who knew that radiation counting was once a fashionable trend? Though parts of the nuclear history might seem like a fiction mash-up, where cowboys somehow got a hold of a reactor, Mahaffey's vivid prose holds the reader in thrall of the infectious energy of scientific curiosity and ingenuity that may one day hold the key to solving our energy crisis or sending us to Mars. 16 pages of color images
