Essentials of Toxicology

In recent years, toxicology has gained significant importance due to the widespread and unchecked use of agricultural chemicals and drugs, as well as the detrimental effects of environmental pollution on the health of animals. The indiscriminate feeding habits of domestic animals, particularly in developing countries, make them more susceptible to the impact of natural toxicants such as phytotoxins and mycotoxins. Toxicology has been recognized as a distinct discipline in all scientific fields at both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels for the past four decades, with a strong emphasis placed on its teaching, research, and practical applications from a clinical perspective. This book aims to serve as both a supplement to classroom instruction and a valuable resource for practitioners, with the goal of providing comprehensive, up-to-date information on a wide range of potentially toxic substances. In addition to covering traditional and non-traditional areas of toxicology, the book includes a wealth of quick-reference charts and tables that provide vital information at your fingertips. The book is designed to offer invaluable, clinically-oriented guidance on numerous potentially toxic substances, making it an essential resource for anyone working in the field of toxicology.
