Diversification in Toxicology — Man and Environment
This volume contains the main papers presented at the 1997 EUROTOX Congress, Århus, Denmark, 24-28 June 1997. Diversification in toxicology is seen as the application of basic science to such diverse areas as man and his environment. The pressing issues which have been dealt with not only include reproductive effects of environmental chemicals ("xenoestrogens"), but also receptor-mediated toxic responses, new frontiers in human and ecological toxicology, chemoprevention of cancer and molecular approaches in toxicological research. The practical and ethical facets of toxicology, e.g. ecotoxicological risk assessment, biomarkers of exposure, complex chemical mixtures as well as animal welfare and the ethics of animal experimentation, are also treated.
Free Radicals, Antioxidants, Aging and Disease
Presents information from significant peer-reviewed studies showing that increased oxidative stress has an important role in numerous medical disorders. Describes current concepts of life expectancy, the aging process, and the presence of free radicals in biological systems. Explores the relationship between free radical and increased oxidative stress in medical disorders, including atherosclerosis, ischemia/reperfusion injury, pulmonary diseases, liver and kidney disorders, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders.
