Humans have utilized the bioactive principles of different plants for various beneficial physiological properties, including antimicrobial properties, for many centuries. However, with the availability of effective, synthetic antimicrobial drugs, interest in using medicinal plants declined during the 20th century. In recent years, the development of microbial resistance to various drugs has focused research on the use of phytochemicals as alternatives to synthetic drugs. This book presents comprehensive reviews on the antimicrobial and antiviral properties of numerous recently reported phytochemicals, and their mechanisms of antimicrobial actions. Several chapters critically discuss the beneficial as well as adverse effects of antibacterial, and stimulatory activities of dietary phytochemicals on rumen and gut microbial populations of humans and animals. Microbial adaptation and the resistance of microbes to phytochemicals are also highlighted with other chapters covering more applied aspects.

This textbook provides practical guidelines on conducting experiments across the entire spectrum of environmental biotechnology. It opens with general information on laboratory safety, rules and regulations, as well as a description of various equipment commonly used in environmental laboratories. It then discusses in detail the major experiments in basic and advanced environmental studies, including the analysis of water and soil samples; the isolation, culture, and biochemical characterization of microbes; and plant tissue culture techniques and nutrient analyses. Each chapter features detailed method sections and easy-to-follow protocols, and offers guidance on calculations and formulas, as well as illustrative flow charts to assist with troubleshooting for each experiment. Given its scope, the book is an invaluable aid for laboratory researchers studying environmental biotechnology, and a rich source of information and advice for advanced undergraduates and graduates in the fields of environmental science and biotechnology.

A New Keynesian model estimated for India yields valuable insights. Aggregate demand reacts to interest rate changes with a lag of at least three quarters, with inflation taking seven quarters to respond. Inflation is inertial and persistent when it sets in, irrespective of the source. Exchange rate pass-through to domestic inflation is low. Inflation turns out to be the dominant focus of monetary policy, accompanied by a strong commitment to the stabilization of output. Recent policy actions have raised the effective policy rate, but the estimated neutral policy rate suggests some further tightening to normalize the policy stance.

The RAPID2021 workshop focused on a specific and contemporary research topic: detector technology and electronics for nuclear and particle physics experiments as well as applications. In the RAPID2021, we had invited lectures, overview talks and contributed presentations by the scientists and young researchers from all around the world. In this workshop the papers presented are on the new developments at different experiments (ALICE, CMS, ATLAS) at CERN, new micro-pattern gas detectors development by RD51 collaboration at CERN, development of silicon pixel sensors at CERN, detectors for FAIR facilities in Germany, low energy experiments at different facilities, new detector ideas for nuclear and particle physics experiments, developments in electronics to overcome the challenges for the future LHC experiments, and application of the detectors on medical imaging. The proceedings of the workshop are quite helpful to document the new results, technologies, and developments by different groups and well known international laboratories like CERN, GSI, and Brookhaven National Laboratory. The publication of the scientists and young researchers will definitely be the new references for future studies on the same direction.
