Produktinformationen zu „Handbook on the Toxicology of Metals “
Handbook of the Toxicology of Metals is the standard reference work for physicians, toxicologists and engineers in the field of environmental and occupational health. This new edition is a comprehensive review of the effects on biological systems from metallic elements and their compounds. An entirely new structure and illustrations represent the vast array of advancements made since the last edition. Special emphasis has been placed on the toxic effects in humans with chapters on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of metal poisoning. This up-to-date reference provides easy access to a broad range of basic toxicological data and also gives a general introduction to the toxicology of metallic compounds.
* Covers up-to-date toxicological information on 31 metallic elements and their compounds, each in a separate chapter * New chapters on general chemistry, biological monitoring and biomarkers, essential metals, principles for prevention of the toxic effects of metals, and more

Environmental and Occupational Medicine for many years. He has also worked as a scientist at the International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, France and as a Professor and chairman at the Department of Environmental Medicine, Odense University, Denmark. He has published more than 270 papers in Scientific Journals and International Handbooks. In addition, he edited or co-edited 23 Scientific Books and participated in International Task Groups evaluating Risks of Environmental Agents which resulted in 25 international books. Some of these publications resulted from his activities as a chairman of the Scientific Committee on the Toxicology of Metals, International Commission on Occupational Health. He is presently the Task Group Chairman of Cadmium Risk Assessment in the Toxicology and Risk Assessment Group of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. His Scientific Publications are mainly on Toxicology and Epidemiology of environmental agents, particularly metals. He has coordinated EU- projects on Environmental Epidemiology and Toxicology of Metals and participated as an active scientist in several such projects. He has been the principal investigator of many research projects funded by Swedish funding Agencies and is presently actively involved in such research. He is one of the editors of a Textbook in Swedish "Arbets- och Miljömedicin , latest (3rd) Edition 2010. Chief Editor, Handbook on the Toxicology of Metals, 3rd Ed, published 2007 by Academic Press/Elsevier, new 4th edition publishing October 2014. He has extensive experience as an expert serving Swedish and International Authorities such as the Swedish National Board of Health (Socialstyrelsen), Japan Food Safety Agency, US Environmental Protection Agency, National Institute for Environmental Health Studies (NIEHS), Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) USA, World Health Organization HQ, Geneva/International Program on Chemical Safety; International Agency for Research on Cancer IARC, Lyon, France, World Health Organization, Europe/European Environment Agency, Copenhagen; European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Parma, Italy. Dr. Bruce A. Fowler Ph.D., A.T.S is currently a consultant and an Adjunct Professor at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, and a Presidents Professor of Biomedical Research at the University of Alaska- Fairbanks.

Rezension zu „Handbook on the Toxicology of Metals “
"The handbook is a weighty collection of 47 essays in the fields of toxicology and ecology of metals, reflecting a wide range of specialist knowledge from authors of several parts of theworld. It promotes awareness of health threats of the general public as well as of professionals in various occupations, constituting a valuable reference source for physicians, toxicologists, scientists in several areas, legislators and managers of environmental and occupational safety organizations. The scope of the handbook is wide and multidisciplinary, integrating human and environmental ecology. It is desireable that the handbook will find its way to many bookshelves at hospitals, industrial and governmental libraries and several research institutes in every part of the world." -SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT
