Summary: |
A practice-oriented desktop reference for toxicologists and pharmaceutical researchers, this handbook provides systematic coverage of the metabolic pathways of all major classes of xenobiotics in the human body. The first part briefly reviews the main enzyme systems involved in biotransformation and how they are orchestrated in the body, while parts two to four cover the three main classes of xenobiotics: drugs, natural products, environmental pollutants. Selected, well-documented case studies from the most important xenobiotics classes illustrate general principles of metabolism, making thi |
