Description Advances in Molecular Toxicology features the latest advances in all of the subspecialties of the broad area of molecular toxicology.
Toxicology is the study of poisons and this series details the study of the molecular basis by which a vast array of agents encountered
in the human environment and produced by the human body itself manifest themselves as toxins. Not strictly limited to documenting these
examples the series is also concerned with 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 will also be reviewed by leading workers
in the field.
Advances in Molecular Toxicology will report progress in all aspects of these rapidly evolving molecular aspects of toxicology
with a view toward detailed elucidation of both progress on the molecular level and on advances in technological approaches employed
Audience
For academics in the field of chemistry, biochemistry, toxicology, pharmacology medicine; for Government agencies and those in industry, pharmaceutical and chemical manufacturers
