Hot-headed and courageous, Christina is opinionated and has many friends. The worldwide devastation came and went, but what remained were murderous creatures roaming the planet intent on killing and infecting any survivors. Despite danger, Trish is ready to leave the bunker and Christina leaves her walled-in city only to have a chance encounter that changes both their lives. Where did the infected monsters come from and will they overpower the last remnants of humanity? Will they learn the truth of what really happened nearly two decades earlier? And will Christina and Trish have a chance to develop their undeniable attraction when their physical survival is at such high risk? Don't miss this post-apocalyptic tale of loyalty and survival in the midst of world-wide disaster!

Approaches to the Purification, Analysis and Characterization of Antibody-Based Therapeutics provides the interested and informed reader with an overview of current approaches, strategies and considerations relating to the purification, analytics and characterization of therapeutic antibodies and related molecules. While there are obviously other books published in and around this subject area, they seem to be either older (c.a. year 2000 publication date) or are more limited in scope. The book will include an extensive bibliography of the published literature in the respective areas covered. It is not, however, intended to be a how-to methods book.

The Purification Plan offer an exclusive 7-day program that is your passport to a less toxic lifestyle. The fact is, toxins are everywhere around you--in the air you breathe, the foods you eat, the personal-care products you use, even the matress you sleep on. Though you may not be able to avoid all toxins, you can protect yourself from their harmful effects.

The aim of this incisive study is to clarify the symbolism of the so-called 'sin' (hatta't) offering, better understood as a purification offering. A major concern of the work is to explain the variety of the atonement ceremonies in Leviticus in which the 'purification offering' appears. This variety has hitherto been explained as the result of tradition-historical development (Janowski), or in terms of degrees of uncleanness (Milgrom). Dr Kiuchi presents a new way of looking at the evidence for the offering with special reference to the two incidents in Leviticus 10. The concept of atonement (kipper) includes both purification and guilt-bearing, for when the priest purifies sancta he bears the guilt associated with the uncleanness. The varieties of blood manipulation are determined by the occasion, while the varieties of disposal of the sacrificial flesh hinge on whether the agent of the atonement is also a beneficiary of it.

Now in its fifth edition, the book has been updated to include more detailed descriptions of new or more commonly used techniques since the last edition as well as remove those that are no longer used, procedures which have been developed recently, ionization constants (pKa values) and also more detail about the trivial names of compounds.In addition to having two general chapters on purification procedures, this book provides details of the physical properties and purification procedures, taken from literature, of a very extensive number of organic, inorganic and biochemical compounds which are commercially available. This is the only complete source that covers the purification of laboratory chemicals that are commercially available in this manner and format.* Complete update of this valuable, well-known reference* Provides purification procedures of commercially available chemicals and biochemicals* Includes an extremely useful compilation of ionisation constants
