This book was released on 2003-08-14 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, here is a book that focuses on in vitro approaches to the study of the toxicology of polluting agents (including heavy metals, radionuclides, micro-organics, estrogenic compounds, and complex mixtures) in the aquatic environment. The importance of in vitro methods is that they allow standardised techniques to be developed and validated for substance and species specific experiments in a controlled way. Also, they allow mechanistic studies without the problems of individual variation between animals and environmental stress.
Download or read book Methods for Genetic Risk Assessment written by David Brusick and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1994-01-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic disease contributes to a major portion of our health care costs. While most of the human genetic burden is transmitted from generation to generation, environmental chemicals capable of reacting with germ cell DNA could produce new mutations, resulting in an even greater genetic liability for the next generation. The potential impact of environmental mutagens on the health and viability of other living things is important to consider as well. Methods for Genetic Risk Assessment features contributions from international experts to provide a comprehensive review of the current status of genetic risk assessment. You'll learn about various methods and strategies for when and how to conduct genetic risk assessments on human populations. You will also learn about the potential effects of environmental genotoxins on nonhuman organisms. Topics considered include:

Book excerpt: Selected and peer-reviewed contributions from an international workshop up-to-date descriptions of research activities on the ecotoxicology and ecophysiology of fish. Topics covered come from a broad field of physiological ecological adaptations of fish to environmental stressors. Numerous subdisciplines of immediate concern to investigators are explored. They include - ecotoxicological test methods - biochemical, genetic and cytological biomarkers - alternative in vitro bioessays with fish cells - development of larvae - ethology - endocrinology The contributions integrate field and laboratory studies thus bridging the gap between toxicologists and physiologists in the laboratory and 2pure2 ecologists.

Download or read book Handbook of Mineral Elements in Food written by de la Guardia and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-04-20 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mineral elements are found in foods and drink of all differenttypes, from drinking water through to mothers’ milk. Thesearch for mineral elements has shown that many trace andultratrace-level elements presented in food are required for ahealthy life. By identifying and analysing these elements, it ispossible to evaluate them for their specific health-givingproperties, and conversely, to isolate their less desirableproperties with a view to reducing or removing them altogether fromsome foods. The analysis of mineral elements requires a number ofdifferent techniques – some methods may be suitable for onefood type yet completely unsuited to another. The Handbook of Mineral Elements in Food is the firstbook to bring together the analytical techniques, the regulatoryand legislative framework, and the widest possible range of foodtypes into one comprehensive handbook for food scientists andtechnologists. Much of the book is based on the authors’ owndata, most of which is previously unpublished, making theHandbook of Mineral Elements in Food a vital andup-to-the-minute reference for food scientists in industry andacademia alike. Analytical chemists, nutritionists and food policymakers will also find it an invaluable resource. Showcasing contributions from international researchers, andconstituting a major resource for our future understanding of thetopic, the Handbook of Mineral Elements in Food is anessential reference and should be found wherever food science andtechnology are researched and taught.
