DESCRIPTION:
"Five Stars" according to Katsuhito Kino. thanks
"I believe that it will serve as a good reference book for many researchers in the field and provide a basis for research." (The British Toxicology Society, 1 May 2011)
He received his PhD degree in physical chemistry and polymer chemistry from the State University of New York College of Forestry at Syracuse University, and spent most of his career at NYU. Suse Broyde is Professor of Biology and Affiliate Professor of Chemistry at New York University, USA. . His current research interests are focused on the mechanisms of chemical carcinogenesis and oxidatively generated DNA damage,
Clearly divided into two main sections, Part 1 focuses on selected examples of important DNA lesions and their biological impact, while the second part covers current advances in assessing and predicting the genotoxic effects of chemicals, taking into account the biological responses mediated by the DNA repair, replication and transcription machineries. Bringing the power of biochemical analysis to toxicology, this modern reference explains genotoxicity at the molecular level, showing the links between a DNA lesion and the resulting ce
