Résumé : |
The fundamental principles of environmental toxicology are clearly presented here for university students and professionals in related fields. Basic metabolic, physiological, and pharmacological concepts are used to explain the fate of sis. The use animal toxicity tests is evaluated, and the field of risk assessment is explored. Pollution is considered under the general headings of air, water, land, radiation, and occupational hazards. Enhancing the value of this volume are chapters on pollution control and regulatory policies. This new expanded edition includes material on urbain, industrial, and indoor air pollution; wetlands and estuaries; population, environment, and women's issues; and stratospheric ozone depletion and global warming. |

* Review of pharmacologic concepts.
* Metabolism of xenobiotics.
* Factors that influence toxicity.
* Chemical carcinogenesis and mutagenesis.
* Risk assessment.
* Occupational toxicology.
* Air pollution. |
