    Editorial Review

    Product Description
    Concise and authoritative, Clinical Toxicology: Principles and Mechanisms examines the complex interactions associated with clinical toxicological events and chemical exposure or drug administration. The author places special emphasis on signs and symptoms of diseases and pathology caused by toxins and clinical drugs. He covers contemporary issues in clinical toxicology, such as biological and chemical toxins, changes in protocols for managing toxic ingestions, new antidotes, changes in particular treatments, and pharmacology and toxicology of herbal products.After introducing the fundamental principles of toxicology, the book presents the toxicity of therapeutic and non-therapeutic agents in separate sections. Most chapters start with a basic review of the general physiology and pharmacology principles necessary for understanding the underlying mechanisms of toxicity. The book includes numerous drawings, figures, and tables that improve understanding of the mechanisms involved in chemical exposure. It covers widely distributed chemical agents and currently used therapeutic drugs that possess hazardous effects either as principle mechanisms of action or as untoward adverse drug reactions. A reader-friendly exposition of clinical toxicology, Clinical Toxicology: Principles and Mechanisms can be used as a stand-alone text or a professional reference. ... Read more

    Editorial Review

    Product Description

    Forensic professionals, often working through heavy caseloads, require quick and easy access to reliable sources of information to help interpret toxicology results. While several in-depth resources are available, they are often large, cumbersome, and contain more information than is needed. The Handbook of Forensic Toxicology for Medical Examiners is a concise handbook referencing the most common toxic substances and their levels of toxicity, making it an ideal text for quick confirmation in the field or in the lab.

    The book begins by explaining the proper selection and submission of specimens for toxicological analysis. It describes the various types of specimens and identifies the cases for which these specimens would be most useful, providing instruction on proper collection. The author then explains the methodology involved in performing the specific tests.

    Nearly 300 Toxic Substances Discussed

    The main section of the text consists of an alphabetical listing of nearly 300 toxic substances, including drugs of abuse, poisons, prescription drugs, and over-the-counter medications. For each entry, the book provides the common brand names; classification; half life; volume of distribution; usual dosage; tables of toxicity in various samples, including blood, urine, and tissues; and other important information based on the extensive experience of the author. The text is heavily referenced with materials that are useful for preparation of courtroom testimony, and it contains supplemental appendices with information on acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, drugs that prolong the QT interval, pharmacogenetics, normal laboratory values, and conversion charts.

    Convenient Format

    The busy forensic professional needs a concise handbook that provides critical information quickly without the need to wade through extraneous and inconsequential material. This volume offers an easy-to-use format that allows quick access to the most pertinent information, saving time and increasing accuracy.

    Product Description
    Veterinary Toxicology is a unique single reference that teaches the basic principles of veterinary toxicology to any student at the DVM, MS or PhD level and will continue to serve as a clinical reference for practicing veterinary toxicologists, poison control centers, marine biologists, environmentalists, and animal scientists. While most comparable texts are primarily directed toward the field of human toxicology, this is the one text needed to thoroughly prepare future veterinarians on the newest approaches for diagnosing poisoning cases in all animals from chemicals and plants of a diverse nature as a result of inadvertent, accidental, or malicious intents. Many chapters are provided on topics not covered in any previous books such as target organ toxicity, radiation and radioactive materials, FDA regulatory issues, and ethics in veterinary toxicology.

    * Problem solving strategies are offered for treatment as well as in-depth knowledge of the basic mechanisms of veterinary toxicology.
    * For the first time the specifics of the effects toxins have on different animals and the resulting condition is discussed. For example, acetaminophen affects dogs by causing liver damage but causes red blood cell damage in cats.
    * Provides a comprehensive coverage of chemical terrorism, epidemiology, regulatory issues and the law making this text extremely timely. ... Read more

    Editorial Review

    Product Description
    The analytical toxicologist may be required to detect, identify, and in many cases measure a wide variety of compounds in samples from almost any part of the body or in related materials such as residues in syringes or in soil. This book gives principles and practical information on the analysis of drugs and poisons in biological specimens, particularly clinical and forensic specimens.

    After providing some background information the book covers aspects of sample collection, transport, storage and disposal, and sample preparation. Analytical techniques - colour tests and spectrophotometry, chromatography and electro­phoresis, mass spectrometry, and immunoassay – are covered in depth, and a chapter is devoted to the analysis of trace elements and toxic metals. General aspects of method implementation/validation and laboratory operation are detailed, as is the role of the toxicology laboratory in validating and monitoring the performance of point of care testing (POCT) devices. The book concludes with reviews of xenobiotic absorption, distribution and metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and general aspects of the interpretation of analytical toxicology results.

    • A clearly written, practical, integrated approach to the basics of analytical toxicology.
    • Focuses on analytical, statistical and pharmacokinetic principles rather than detailed applications.
    • Assumes only a basic knowledge of analytical chemistry.
    • An accompanying website provides additional material and links to related sites.

    Written by an experienced team of authors,Fundamentals of Analytical Toxicology is an invaluable resource for those starting out in a career in analytical toxicology across a wide range of disciplines including clinical and forensic science, food safety, and pharmaceutical development. 

    Praise from the reviews:

    “This is an ambitious effort to describe in detail the many and varied aspects of the science of toxicological analysis. The 17 chapters cover every foreseeable aspect, from specimen collection through analytical techniques and quality control to pharmacological principles and interpretation of results. The authors bring together a great deal of experience in the field and have succeeded admirably in achieving their goal: "to give principles and practical information on the analysis of drugs, poisons and other relevant analytes in biological specimens...". The book is very readable and quite up-to-date, and contains many illustrative figures, charts and tables. Both the student and the practicing professional would do well to study this material carefully, as there is something here for every conceivable level of interest.”   Review from Randall Baselt

    "This text comes highly recommended for any analytical toxicology trainee." The Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists

    “Overall, this book provides a comprehensive, thorough, clear, up to date and practical treatment of analytical toxicology at a high standard.  Understanding of the text is enhanced by the use of many illustrations.  Specifications, guidelines, and methods are highlighted in grey background “Boxes”.  The many and up to date literature references in each chapter demonstrate the authors’ thorough work and permit easy access to deeper information.  Therefore this book can be highly recommended as a valuable source of knowledge in analytical toxicology both as an introduction and for the advanced reader.”  GTFCh Bulletin “Toxichem + Krimtech”, May 2008 (translated, original review in German)

    Product Description
    Analytical toxicologists are involved in the analysis of drugs and poisons in biological samples in different environments: therapeutic drug monitoring, drugs in sport, postmortem examinations, etc. Following the developments of LC-MS in the last decade and its establishment as the method of choice in the pharmaceutical industry (analytical R&D), the technique has gained favour in other scientific disciplines including analytical toxicology. This is notably due to the fact that purchase and operative costs of the equipment have gradually decreased over the same period. Many scientists in the field of analytical toxicology have already adopted LC-MS in their daily work, and this is illustrated by the increasing numbers of research papers published and presented at relevant conferences (The International Association of Forensic Toxicologists, Society of Forensic Toxicologists). ...

    5-0 out of 5 stars Finally, a single reference that addresses a multitude of natural toxins!
    This is an essential reference text for medical libraries, poison and drug information centers, clinical toxicologists and anyone who manages patients who may be exposed to natural toxins.With the increasing use of alternative medicine, this book would be a useful addition to medical practice libraries and emergency departments. The author is Donald Barceloux, MD, the co-author of Medical Toxicology, which is still a staple reference in the discipline of clinical toxicology.Dr. Barceloux combines his expertise in medical toxicology and emergency medicine and his skills as an author to address the significant and challenging natural toxins that are associated with morbidity and mortality.The book is divided into five sections: foodborne and microbial toxins, fungal toxins (mushrooms), medicinal herbs and essential oils, toxic plants and venomous animals (even marine poisons).Each monograph follows a template that is consistent throughout the book and makes it easy to navigate from section to section.Strengths of the book include placing each toxin in perspective with regard to potential morbidity and mortality, focused but comprehensive monographs, and extensive referencing.After using the book for a few weeks, I noted only one minor weakness--a number of terms are missing from the index.For example, a minimal number of terms such as poinsettia, philodendron, Araceae are missing.Thus, it took slightly longer to locate the information about those plants.While all of the information included in the book can be found in a multitude of hardcopy references and online resources, this is the only book that combines everything into a single, authoritative, contemporary and easy to read reference. ...

    5-0 out of 5 stars Outstanding tribute to the original Ellenhorn
    The original Medical Toxicology by Matthew Ellenhorn was a fabulous resource for the clinical/medical toxicologist.That it is still widely used despite being published in 1988 is a testament to it's impact and utility.This third edition of Medical Toxicology goes back to those first edition roots:a plethora of useful topics written in a clear, consice manner.

    The book provides excellent detail needed for the understanding of a wide range of toxicologic problems.Treatment recommendations are as evidence-based as possible given the field of study.

    The third section of the book focuses on one of the key elements of being a toxicologist:detective!The section is titled, "Diagnosis of the Poisoned Patient: The Toxicolgist as Sleuth".Rarely do patients present with a (accurate) diagnosis.It's the job of the clinician to take all the available information, work through the possibilities, and identify the most likely agents that could be causing the observed effects.

    This is an outstanding resource and should be considered for critical care and emergency clinicians as well as poison center staff (especially those still in training in these areas).Given the popularity of TV and movie scripts that include toxicologic information (e.g., CSI, ER, etc.) those writers would do well to review this text. ...

    Editorial Review

    Product Description
    Reflecting more than a decade’s worth of changes, Animal Models in Toxicology, Second Edition is a practical guide to the common statistical problems encountered in toxicology and the methodologies that are available to solve them. The book presents a historical review of the use of animal models and an overview of broad considerations of metabolism and relevance used in toxicology. Individual chapters covering the eight major species used in toxicology and experimental biology form the core of the book. With contributions from experts in toxicology, toxicological pathology, and species-specific metabolism, each of these chapters provide an excellent introductory “course” along with guidance to the literature for more detailed understanding.

    The book goes on to make the case for a range of species not commonly used for safety assessment studies but which may provide useful alternative models for some specific endpoints. The chapter authors discuss special considerations regarding the evaluation and interpretation of the clinical pathology of the eight major model species as well as how to select a model species and how to extrapolate the results to humans. They detail potential pitfalls and situations that cause either human or model to be significantly more sensitive than the other or totally irrelevant to each other. The book concludes with an overview of the increasingly complex laws and regulations that govern how laboratory animals are obtained, maintained, and utilized, and an appendix that provides a quick guide to commercial sources of laboratory animals. ...

    3-0 out of 5 stars Informative but redundant
    Though I have yet to read the book in its entirety, I have skimmed through several chapters & I find that much of the techniques appear to be written in redundancy.Perhaps I have high expectations, but perhaps techniques that are performed in the same manner between species could be consolidated and referenced.The information for actual toxicology in the various species is very useful. ...

    Product Description
    A Textbook of Modern Toxicology is a unique resource that provides both students and practitioners with a wide-ranging, accessible overview of the discipline. Suitable for courses in environmental, pharmacological, medical, and veterinary toxicology, this essential text features chapters written by experts who address a range of key topics.

    The Fourth Edition includes additional chapters on new approaches to toxicology - molecular methods (-omics: toxicogenomics, proteomics, and metabolomics), bioinformatics, and systems biology – and continues the legacy of its predecessors to provide up-to-date insights into acute toxicity and chemical carcinogenesis, organ toxicity, in vitro and in vivo toxicity testing, ecological risk assessment, and many other areas of toxicology that help foster a solid comprehension of the field.

    Also featured in the Fourth Edition are end-of-chapter questions and a Solutions Manual available separately for academic adopters.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Perfect Introductory Textbook
    This book is an excellent textbook for introducing fundamental principles and applications of toxicology without diluting the material and watering-down the complexity of toxicological principia practica. While a good source for basic theory, the book can also be employed as a recitational tool for more specialized toxicological inquiry.

    My son loves this book, was actually already reading it prior to school even starting.He is a highschool senior doing independent study and he and his teacher both like the book.

    5-0 out of 5 stars good choice
    What a great deal!The book I received was the exact same book that was available in the campus bookstore, but I saved a big chunk of money buying it here.

    3-0 out of 5 stars Modern Toxicology
    I teach toxicology to physicians.It is tough to bridge both thetheoretical side and the clinical side and not be too boring.This book isabout as good as there is out there, but it is a little irregular in depth.But it is readable.

    Hazardous Material Toxicology by Sullivan and Kriegeris great for physicians but is thin on the theoretical aspects.

    Cassaretand Doull is better suited for full time toxicologists and people withinsomnia. ... Read more
