HPLC in Enzymatic Analysis by Edward F. Rossomando
Call Number: QD271 .M46 v.38
ISBN: 0471103403
Publication Date: 1998-04-21
The use of High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) techniques in the study of enzymatic reactions has grown significantly since the publication of the first edition of this highly successful book: the role of enzymes in biological research has expanded; the application of HPLC and enzymes has extended to more disciplines; advances in separation techniques and instrumentation have increased the capability of HPLC; and the discovery of new enzymes has spawned new methods of analysis. High Performance Liquid Chromatography in Enzymatic Analysis, Second Edition addresses these developments in its coverage of the refinements of HPLC methods and their use in a wide range of laboratory applications. It offers the same practical approach found in the first edition, incorporates a wealth of new information into existing chapters, and adds new chapters to deal with new applications, including capillary electrophoresis, forensic chemistry, microdialysis, and the polymerase chain reaction. Easy to read and full of practical advice and hundreds of diagrams and examples, High Performance Liquid Chromatography in Enzymatic Analysis, Second Edition is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and laboratory workers in analytical chemistry and biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology, and for anyone interested in keeping up with this fast-growing field.
Morphogenesis : an analysis of the development of biological form by Edward F. Rossomando, Stephen Alexander (editors)
Call Number: QH491 .M669 1992
ISBN: 082478667X
Publication Date: 1992-04-30
An integrated reference which could form the basis for advanced courses on development or become a resource for individuals teaching basic courses. Following an introduction by the volume editors, the 11 chapters represent 11 different systems, arranged phylogenetically. This in-depth volume explores all the major morphogenic systems from bacteria to vertebrates and presents a comprehensive picture of the events and mechanisms that contribute to the development of the mature biological form. Written by internationally recognised authorities in the field, ‘Morphogenesis’ provides novel insights into the function of multicellularity and morphogens in morphogenes; details prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems as well as the more complex morphogenesis of mammals and birds; analyses the similarities and differences between the morphogenic strategies used by diverse organisms and identifies the unique advantages of each; describes basic concepts of each biological system, current research developments, and future directions in research; considers the impact on each system of gene function, the environment, pattern formation, and the intercellular communication and information transfer; examines the biochemical, molecular biological, and genetic approaches used to study each system and more. Generously referenced with more than 1525 bibliographic citations, ‘Morphogenesis’ is essential reading for molecular, cell, and developmental biologists; biochemists; microbiologists, and upper- level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.

Dental Hypothesis

Dental Hypotheses provides a forum for the presentation and criticism of original, innovative and thought-provoking ideas in dentistry and the related sciences.

Dental Hypotheses publishes new, challenging and radical ideas, so long as they are coherent and clearly expressed. Most dental journals will publish ideas only in papers that also report observations. As the best scientists have repeatedly emphasized, this gives a misleading impression of the process of discovery. Dental Hypotheses can, therefore, form a bridge between cutting-edge theory and the mainstream of dental scientific communication, which ideas must eventually enter if they are to be critiqued and tested against observations. This also means that we encourage authors to take responsibility for their ideas.

Editor-in-chief: Dr. Edward Rossomando, whose position as editor-in-chief of the Penn Dental Journal from 1963-64 gave him the editorial foundation and experience necessary to fulfill his Dental Hypothesis role.

Interview with CRET President Dr. Edward Rossomando from ADA 2015

Center for Research & Education in Technology

CRET-logo

Dr. Rossomando, along with a group of innovative dental industry leaders, founded The Center for Research & Education in Technology (CRET) in 2004 to achieve the following vision: to ensure that each dental school has the latest in equipment and products and that dental students and faculty have access to this technology for treatment of patients while in dental school.

Since its founding, CRET members have worked together on numerous projects to introduce technology into dental curricula. The success of their efforts, particularly the opening of 5 technology centers, is proof of the ability of CRET members to collaborate with dental faculty in the interest of working together towards their shared vision.

THEIR MISSION

To develop a Technology Educational Program for dental students, dental residents, and dental faculty that will promote knowledge and competency in 21st century technology.

Patent

Method of using magnetic particles for isolating, collecting and assaying diagnostic ligates

Patent number: US-5158871-A

Inventors: Rossomando; Edward F. (West Hartford, CT), Hadjimichael; Jane (Simsbury, CT)

Filed: February 02, 1989

Abstract: An in vivo method for preparing, inserting, isolating, collecting and assaying diagnostic ligates present in body fluids. Magnetically responsive particles with attached ligands specific for a particular ligate are introduced into the body fluid. Bonding between the ligand and ligate results in particle/ligand/ligate complexes. The complexes are removed by the application of a magnetic field and the complexes are permitted to cluster. The clusters are then quantitated to determine the concentration of the ligate in the body fluid. Associated materials and devices useful in the practice of this method are also provided.
