Handbook of Ecotoxicology, (Hardcover)

This book is completely based on ecotoxicology. It discusses the prospective aspects in this field. It discusses the genotoxicity of heavy metals in plants, chromatographic methodologies for the estimation of mycotoxin and effects of xenobiotics on benthic assemblages in different habitats. Laboratory findings of genotoxins on small mammals and bioindicators of soil quality and assessment of pesticides used in chemical seed treatments have also been described. There is also a comprehensive overview on European regulation REACH in marine ecotoxicology, X-ray spectroscopic screening for trace metal in invertebrates and alternative animal model for toxicity determination. This book is a well-organized and valuable collection of latest information on Ecotoxicology.
