Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology Summary

Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology by Kenneth S . Korach

This timely resource offers extensive discussions on the pharmacological, environmental,endocrinological, and natural factors that alter reproductive or developmental processes-elucidating the effects of toxicants on mechanisms of reproduction.
Describing biological actions common to both genders as well as gender-specific processes, Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology

  • provides an overview of the basic biology and physiology of organ systems affected by toxicants
  • furnishes detailed examples of developmental toxicology
  • analyzes germ cell toxicity and infertility
  • covers the developmental effects of neurotoxicity
  • considers periods of exposure and long-term toxicological consequences
  • explains how gonadal processes may be susceptible to toxicants in other reproductive organ systems
  • and more!
    With over 3700 bibliographic citations and more than 100 photographs, drawings, and tables, Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology is a useful reference for toxicologists; reproductive, developmental, cell, and molecular biologists; endocrinologists; biochemists; obstetricians/gynecologists; pediatricians; pharmacists and pharmacologists; physiologists; geneticists; poison control specialists; and upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and medical school students in these disciplines.
  • Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology Reviews


    ...Dr. Kenneth Korach...deserves to be complemented for publishing an exhaustive and excellent volume. The book will certainly be a valuable addition to the libraries in academic and research institutions dealing with the field of toxicology and allied sciences.
