Toxicology: Oxidative Stress and Dietary Antioxidants

Toxicology: Oxidative Stress and Dietary Antioxidants examines the nature of oxidative stress as a consequence of exposure to toxins and how antioxidant approaches can mitigate the impact of toxicant exposures. Sections covers the basic biology of oxidative stress, from molecular biology, to physiological pathology, mechanisms of action of specific toxicants, metals and other chemicals/drugs,  and antioxidant approaches and therapies for toxic exposures. With contributions from an international group of experts, useful summary sections, a dictionary of terms, and applications to other areas of toxicology, this book is an informative, consolidated reference that helps bridge the interrelationship between toxicology, oxidative stress and antioxidants. Provides a novel collection of information linking both sides of redox biology (oxidants and antioxidants) and toxicologyExplores the role of free radical mediated damage and toxicologyContains contributions from experts on toxicological science surrounding oxidative stress and on antioxidant approaches for reducing the impact of toxicant exposures INDICE: PART 1 TOXICOLOGY AND OXIDATIVE STRESS AGRICULTURAL AND INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS 1.
