Animal Clinical Chemistry: A Practical Guide for Toxiologists and Biomedical Researchers

By G.O. Evans

Book Overview

Assembling widely dispersed information, the second edition of this work focuses on information of relevance to experimental toxicology as a separate discipline from human medicine. It presents background information on the selection and application of biochemical tests in safety assessment studies. In addition to chapters which discuss the assessment of toxicity in specific organs, such as the liver, kidney, and thyroid, the book also covers pre-analytical variables, regulatory requirements, and statistical approaches, while highlighting some of the major differences between humans and various laboratory animals.
