Toxicology in Transition Proceedings of the 1994 EUROTOX Congress Meeting Held in Basel, Switzerland, August 21–24, 1994
The volume contains the main papers presented at the 1994 EUROTOX Congress, Basel, Switzerland, August 21-24, 1994. Toxicology has become a less descriptive science because more importance has been placed on the mechanisms underlying toxic effects. This is reflected in symposia and workshops devoted...
