商品簡介
Going beyond the standard toxicology text which merely lists toxic compounds and their ophthalmic toxicities, this volume of nine monographs by international experts covers specific actions of ophthalmic poisons on ocular tissues; research methods in vivo and in vitro; ophthalmic toxicities of selected drugs and agents via systemic and/or local delivery; and medical treatment of chemical injuries. A new chapter entitled "Molecular Basis of Ophthalmic Toxicology" assimilates advances in the field, as do the expanded respective chapters on in vivo and in vitro eye irritation test methods. Includes b&w illustrations. Intended as a reference in diverse academic, medical, and industrial settings. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
