Cadmium Toxicity

Beschreibung

This volume focuses on cadmium (Cd) exposure, its effects on human health, the mechanism of Cd accumulation and the development of mitigation technologies. Further, it discusses clinical, epidemiological, agricultural, toxicological, and biochemical aspects of Cd pollution and presents recent biochemical studies on molecular mechanisms of Cd cytotoxicity and cellular transport as well as the mechanism of Cd-induced disturbances in phosphorus (P) metabolism. It also provides insights into the pathophysiology of itai-itai disease, a serious condition caused by Cd pollution.
Cadmium -New Aspects in Human Disease, Rice Contamination, and Cytotoxicity- is a valuable resource for scientists involved in heavy metal toxicology, botanical sciences, and regulatory sciences. Addressing the features of Cd pollution in the past and in the present, as well as future perspectives, this is a must-have book for students, researchers and practitioners interested in globaland local metal pollution.

“This well‐written book provides a brief overview of aspects of cadmium toxicity, with a special emphasis on cadmium toxicity and its associated pathology in Japan. It will be useful to readers interested in understanding cadmium toxicity, particularly those who live in and around Japan.” (Partha Kasturi,Doody's Book Reviews, June 21 2019)
