this book provides a great overview both for students and beginning scholars in conservation science.  It will function as a book of reference for experienced conservation scientists.” (Anal Bioanal Chem, 2010) “Minor criticisms aside, this is a really useful sourcebook and should be consulted by everyone working in the field.” (Chromatographia, November 2010)

This is a valuable, up-to-date resource for researchers in industry, government, or academia who work in ceramics engineering.

The toxicology part addresses, among others, recent advances in early genetic toxicity testing, bioactivation screening, organ-specific toxicity assays for liver, heart, kidney and blood, as well as profiling for autoimmune reactions.
By addressing both drug efficiency and drug safety, this modern practical reference shows readers how each individual aspect figures in shaping the key decisions on which the entire drug development process hinges. In short, this is a complete toolbox for assessing the risk/benefit ratio for any novel compound during the early drug development stages, using both in vitro and in silico methods. Both editors are based at one of the leading research-driven pharmaceutical companies, and the authors have been recruited from numerous other global players in the field. Invaluable know-how for every medicinal chemist and drug developer.
