eBooks - Science & Technology - Psychiatry - Shayne Cox Gad - In Vitro Toxicology, Second Edition
| Toxicology has made tremendous strides in the sophistication of the models used to identify and understand the mechanisms of agents that can harm or kill humans and other higher organisms. As this book demonstrates, there now exists a broad range of in vitro models for use in either identifying or understanding most forms of toxicity. The availability of in vitro models spans both the full range of endpoints (irritation, sensitization, lethality, mutagency and developmental toxicity) and the full spectrum of target organ systems (skin, eye, heart, liver, kidney, nervous system, etc.) The book devotes chapters to each of these specialty areas from a perspective of presenting the principal models and their uses and limitations. |
