Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

The purpose of this work is to present in a single convenient source the current essential information on the disposition of the chemicals and drugs most frequently encountered in episodes of human poisoning. The data included relate to the body fluid concentrations of substances in normal or therapeutic situations, concentrations in fluids and tissues in instances of toxicity and the known metabolic fate of these substances in man. Brief mention is made of specific analytical procedures that are applicable to the determination of each substance and its active metabolites in biological specimens. It is expected that such information will be of particular interest and use to toxicologists, pharmacologists, clinical chemists and clinicians who have need either to conduct an analytical search for these materials in specimens of human origin or to interpret analytical data resulting from such a search.

It has been 36 years since the first edition of this work appeared, and the page count and number of substances discussed have both increased by an order of magnitude over that interval. This remains an excellent resource for quickly accessing relevant information on drugs and chemicals to which humans are frequently exposed, including the sources of exposure, typical doses, routes of administration, blood concentrations attained during routine or excessive exposure, routes of elimination, biotransformation pathways, toxic effects of acute or chronic exposure, and methods for analytical measurement in biological specimens. The new sections on the latest drugs of abuse and popular dietary supplements were of special interest to this reader.

I don't need to mention about this book because it is like the bible in the forensic toxicology. Must-have-item.It is expensive compare to when buying nationally... But It was touched by the memo from this seller.

excellent work --continuation of an excellent reference.

Expensive and worth it.
