The metals cause cancer and other  sicknesses. Their cytotoxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic potentials are  not fully understood, and any thorough investigation demands the  combined efforts of scientists drawn from many different disciplines.  But the effects of heavy metals are not all negative: some, like  \u003cem\u003ecis\u003c\/em\u003e-DDP, and some ruthenium and tin complexes, have antitumour  activity. \u003cbr\u003e  The idea underlying the present work is therefore to present a  multidisciplinary perspective on heavy metals in the environment,  affording a better understanding of their action on human organisms  and health, aiming to make them less polluting and more  environmentally friendly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9789401064408\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401064408\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-5780-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 629\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359133200524,"sku":"9789401064408","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401064408.jpg?v=1755101847","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401064408","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
