Frontiers in Toxicology is the essential tool for toxicologists and pharmacologists working in academia, industry and regulatory bodies looking to stay at the forefront of three of the most important and upcoming areas of toxicology: toxicogenomics, hepatotoxicity and nanotoxicity. Insights from leading researchers into the current trends and future directions of research are presented in three volumes. Each volume provides details on recent scientific discoveries, rules of best practice and addresses how national and international regulatory agencies will deal with the safety issues associated with toxicology. Many of the chapters are written by authors working for the US Food and Drug Administration, including Dr. Saura C. Sahu himself.
Titles included in the three volume set:
Nanotoxicity: From In Vivo and In Vitro Models to Health Risks - August 2009
Toxicogenomics: A Powerful Tool for Toxicity Assessment - October 2008
Hepatotoxicity: From Genomics to In Vitro and In Vivo Models - December 2007
Each volume is also available to purchase individually.
