    Summary: This book presents diverse applications of microalgal renewable resources to meet modern demands for energy and value-added products. It also comprehensively describes the role of algae in sustainable and cost-effective wastewater treatment strategies, and highlights the latest research on, advances in and biotechnological relevance of algae in the areas of bioenergy, bioremediation, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and green economy. The book addresses gaps in the fields of bioenergy, waste management, health and economy by providing broad information on bioenergy production, management strategies, drug development, nutraceuticals products and biobased economy using algae at the commercial level. The book introduces researchers to key and emerging innovations in the field of algal biology research and will assist policymakers, environmentalists, scientists, students and global thinkers in defining sustainable developmental goals for the future. It was written for researchers and students in the environmental sciences, life sciences and chemistry, experts in the energy sector and policymakers alike.

    The effect of pressure-limited (PL) and volume-limited (VL) ventilation on mortality and morbidity in infants with severe hyaline membrane disease (HMD) was examined in a prospective controlled study. Criteria for mechanical ventilation were PaO2 value of 50 mm Hg or less or a Paco2 value of 70 mm Hg or greater, while the infant was receiving nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) at oxygen concentrations (FIO2) of 0.8 or greater and CPAP of 8 cm H2O or greater; HMD associated with severe perinatal asphyxia requiring mechanical ventilation in the delivery room. Consecutive patients were alternately assigned to receive either PL or VL ventilation. Twenty infants were ventilated with PL machines using low peak inspiratory pressures (mean maximum inspiratory pressure of 28 cm H2O) and prolonged inspiratory times. Twenty other infants were ventilated with VL machines, using essentially unlimited peak inspiratory pressures (mean maximum inspiratory pressure of 62 mm H2O) and prolonged expiratory times. There were no significant differences in survival, incidence of pneumothorax or pulmonary interstitial emphysema, or noteworthy bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
