Methods for Skin Absorption
This up-to-date volume describes the wide variety of available methods concerning percutaneous absorption of drugs and toxins. It discusses in detail the advantages and disadvantages of each method. This unique publication provides a clear, systematic presentation of each aspect which must be considered when designing and performing skin penetration experiments and when interpreting results. It includes specific information regarding necessary supplies and equipment, along with commercial sources for these items. This state-of-the-art book is an ideal instructional manual for investigators uninitiated in performing percutaneous absorption and metabolism studies. Those involved with investigative dermatology, dermatological research, toxicology, and pharmacology will find this reference interesting and indispensable.
In Vitro Biological Systems
Methods in Toxicology, Volume 1: In Vitro Biological Systems, Part A provides basic techniques employed by widely recognized scientists to prepare and maintain the biological components of in vitro model systems. The book discusses the in vitro models of neural and neuromuscular systems; ocular system; respiratory system; cardiovascular system; and gastrointestinal system. The text also describes liver slices; liver hepatocytes; other liver cell systems; proximal tubule fragments; kidney cell culture; reproductive and developmental systems; immune system; and skin. Pharmacologists, toxicologists, cell biologists, physiologists, immunotoxicologists, and molecular toxicologists will find the book invaluable.
In Vitro Percutaneous Absorption
This book covers all major areas of interest in the rapidly expanding field of in vitro methods for percutaneous absorption studies. Specific areas discussed include diffusion cell design, receptor fluid, preparation of skin, and temperature. The book covers experimental methodology, as well as the underlying principles and fundamentals that help professionals and students gain an understanding of the basis for currently used methodology.
Environmental Xenobiotics
The effects of man-made substances (xenobiotics) on the natural environment are described in this volume. It explains why these effects need to be understood, monitored and curtailed, especially in developing countries.

Advances in Swine in Biomedical Research
Contains papers from the October 1995 symposium, in sections on general aspects, transgenics, and immunology and infectious diseases. Topics include ultrastructure of the liver in piglets fed dietary oils, artificial surfactant as a vehicle for endotracheal epinephrine in pediatric porcine cardiopulmonary arrest, transplantation and genetic manipulation in porcine systems, assessment of public health aspects of porcine xenotransplantation, cellular immune responses controlling infectious diseases, and associations between stress- susceptibility and immune status in pigs.

Advances in Swine in Biomedical Research
Contains papers from the October 1995 symposium, in sections on methods and techniques, and nutrition. Subjects include the Yucatan miniature pig model of ventricular septal defect, the minipig as a model for the study of aging in humans, an external thoracic duct venous shunt to allow for long-term
Soybean and Nutrition
Worldwide, soybean seed proteins represent a major source of amino acids for human and animal nutrition. Soybean seeds are an important and economical source of protein in the diet of many developed and developing countries. Soy is a complete protein and soy-foods are rich in vitamins and minerals. Soybean protein provides all the essential amino acids in the amounts needed for human health. Recent research suggests that soy may also lower risk of prostate, colon and breast cancers as well as osteoporosis and other bone health problems and alleviate hot flashes associated with menopause. This volume is expected to be useful for student, researchers and public who are interested in soybean.
Risk reduction
Concerned with the need to reduce chemical risks, this text also covers related biological and physical risks. Risk reduction has an important economic role, not least in developing countries. Many of the contributors are from develping countries and indicate the problems and some of the solutions their countries will need to adopt during their process of reconstruction, development and recovery. The text discusses the decision-making process involving the political, socioeconomic, engineering, and natural sciences so as to develop, analyze and compare regulatory options. It considers how such measured decision making enables the selection of optimal responses to achieve safety from perceived hazards.
