Combination Effects on Chemical Carcinogenesis

Résumé du livre

Only in a few cases can cancer caused by chemicals be traced back to the influence of exclusively one substance. Normally, combinations of chemicals are responsible for carcinogenic development. This book offers a first-time examination of the effects of such combinations. Using experimental models, the authors describe the basic maleficences of the countless combinations of chemical carcinogens, no-carcinogenic substances and properties of the organism. From the multitude of test results, they derive principles of general validity.
