Description - Biological and Environmental Chemistry of Chromium by Katz

This work provides a comprehensive treatment of the benefits and hazards associated with chromium and its compounds. It describes the environmental chemistry associated with exposure to chromium in air, water and food, and the biochemistry of chromium involved with its absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination, as well as the toxicology and nutritional aspects of chromium chemistry. Special emphasis is placed on the influence of chemical speciation and effects such as absorption, transportation, distribution, elimination and toxicity of chromium. Organized and indexed as a reference work on the nutritional benefits and the toxicological consequences of exposure to chromium and its compounds, food scientists, regulators, clinical and environmental scientists and those involved with chromium and its compounds should find this volume of use.
