• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Introduction to Ion Bean Biotechnology presents an comprehensive primer on radiation-induced mutations and implantation of charged particles altering biological development. As such, its one of the most intriging and leading tools in bioengineering cells. IIBB cover the physics of ions particles, the biological effects of ion implantations in cells, and the subsequent use in bacteria, in viruses, and in plants. IIBB covers important areas:

Inducing genetic mutations on the molecular level

Inducing cells to catalyze targeted gene transfer

Ion beam technology is a new area, still very young

IIBB will be essentinal reading for any student, reseacher, or industry professional seeking to understand and master the mechanisms of such mutations.

Autorenporträt

Professor Yu Zuliang heads the Laboratory of Ion Beam Bioengineering of the Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences which is one of the most prestigious research institutes in china. About 15 years ago, he started a brand new research area by bombarding plant seeds with low energy ions and subsequently discovered mutations in the bombarded seeds. Radiation induced mutations have been investigated for some significant contribution to the field of Radiation biology. In additional to the application of the biotechnology he developed, his research in the last several years has been focused on the understanding of the mechanisms for such mutations.
