The aim of this
manual is to help hospital laboratories in developing countries to provide a
basic analytical toxicology service using a minimum of special apparatus.
This
book, New Insights into Toxicity and Drug Testing, covers all emerging
technologies, available methods and models to evaluate candidate drugs and
medicinal plants with reference to toxicity, drug testing and development. This
book is an original contribution of experts from different parts of the globe
and the in-depth information will be a significant resource for scientists and
physicians who are directly dealing with drugs / medicines and human life.
