Environmental Toxicology and Risk Assessment: Second Volume

Editor(s): Joseph W. Gorsuch, F. James Dwyer, Christopher G. Ingersoll, Thomas W. LaPoint

45 papers present the development of new reserach techniques, synopses of available techniques, findings concerning various environmental stressors, and the application of techniques and processes to environmental assessment.

In eight sections:

• Aquatic Toxicology and Use of Experimental Ecosystems

• Biomarkers

• Effluent Toxicity and Simulated Treatment

• Environmental Neurotoxicology

• Plants for Toxicity Assessments

• Risk Assessment

• SAR/QSAR in the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics

• Sediment Toxicology.
