Handbook of Metabolic Pathways of Xenobiotics, 5 Volume Set

If you’re working on or studying the effects of drug metabolisms, then this reference is for you!nnHandbook of Metabolic Pathways of Xenobiotics is an essential new reference which presents the metabolic fate of xenobiotics in animals and plants, and shows the metabolic pathways in the environment.nnPresenting a comprehensive guide to understanding the metabolisms of xenobiotics, the Handbook of Metabolic Pathways of Xenobiotics spans five volumes: Volumes 1-2 are Review Articles and Volumes 3-5 are Compound Articles. Review Articles present detailed reviews on the techniques and methods used to establish in vitro and in vivo metabolic pathways. Compound Articles are carefully selected lists of key chemicals representing agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, animal health products and industrial chemicals.nnAn essential addition to every library, this introduction, guide and catalogue presents:nnCurrent topics in the metabolism of xenobioticsnTopics of both scientific and regulatory importance are covered, including in vitro high throughput metabolism screens, computer-aided metabolism predictions, and advances in bioanalytical techniques.nnTechniques and methods used in metabolic pathwaysn29 chapters provide an introduction to the understanding of drug metabolism and detail how to establish in vitro and in vivo metabolic pathways.nnBiotransformation pathwaysnPresented as a catalogue of short articles covering major pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, animal health products and industrial chemicals. Each article summarizes the chemical properties and uses, and presents a detailed review of the chemical and metabolic pathways in soil, plants and animals.nnOver 450 examples of xenobiotics and their fate in animals and plantsnEach compound includes systematic information about the metabolic pathway of drugs for human and veterinary medicine, agrochemicals and major industrial chemicals.nnChemical and biological fate datanThe Handbook summarises data from scientific literature, patent literature, industrial resources and regulatory agencies, such as the EPA, FDA, EU, WHO and FAO, in a single reference for the first time.nnAn essential reference for everyone working and studying pharmacokinetics and drug metabolismnCoverage of the chemical and biological reactivity of molecules and primary sub-structures makes this an ideal reference for students and research scientists. The broad and diverse coverage of chemical and biological fate under different exposure and biological compartments make this a useful resource for regulatory and developmental scientists.nnExperience the scope of content offered in the Handbook of Metabolic Pathways of Xenobiotics for yourself, download these articles today:nnReview Article: Fundamentals of organic chemistry as applicable to the biotransformation of foreign compoundsnReview Article: Metabolic stability screen in drug discoverynReview Article: Unusual metabolic reactions and pathwaysnCompound Article: Ganoderic acid DnCompound Article: MilnaciprannCompound Article: Tenofovir
