Toxicology in Transition

Know about the book -

Toxicology in Transition is written by Gisela H. Degen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3642794513 (ISBN 10) and 9783642794513 (ISBN 13).

The volume contains the main papers presented at the 1994 EUROTOX Congress, Basel, Switzerland, August 21-24, 1994. Toxicology has become a less descriptive science because more importance has been placed on the mechanisms underlying toxic effects. This is reflected in symposia and workshops devoted to species differences in organ toxicity, receptor-mediated toxicity and stereochemical effects of xenobiotics. Recent progress in the fields of immunotoxicology, ecotoxicology, and neurotoxicology is highlighted and documented together with the present discussion on harmonized regulatory guidelines.
