Essential and Non-Essential Metals Metabolites with Antibiotic Activity Pharmacology of Benzodiazepines Interferon Gamma Research (Progress in Clinical Biochemistry and Medicine, 1)

Scientific progress, more and more, makes it possible to relate disease to irreg­ ularities on a molecular basis. Both, diagnosis and cure can be targeted to a well defined biological structure. Modern medical research aims at the investigation of the interaction of molecules and bio-macro-molecules, formerly the area of chemis­ try, biochemistry and pharmacology. This series was founded to provide a vehicle for the dissemination of results in a multidisciplinary area of contemporary research. It will publish extensive review articles at a high level, that will relate a particular subject to the scopes of medical chemistry. Thus, information and useful references will be spread among the schol­ ars. Table of Contents Toxicity and Carcinogenicity of Essential and Non-essential Metals M. Costa, A. J. Kraker and S. R.
