Academic Press Advances in Molecular Toxicology (Volume 13)

Product Description Advances in Molecular Toxicology, Volume Thirteen, features the latest advances in the subspecialties of the broad area of molecular toxicology. This series details the study of the molecular basis of toxicology by which a vast array of agents encountered in the human environment, and produced by the human body, manifest themselves as toxins. The work not only documents these examples, but also covers the complex web of chemical and biological events that give rise to toxin-induced symptoms and disease. The new technologies that are being harnessed to analyze and understand these events are also reviewed by leading experts in the field. Review Reviews the evolving field of molecular toxicology, featuring the latest advances in related subspecialties and detailing the molecular basis of toxins About the Author Dr. James Fishbein works at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Maryland.
