Complex mixtures : methods for in vivo toxicity testing /

Addresses the problem of identifying and classifying complex mixtures, investigating the effect of exposure, and the research problems inherent in testing their toxicity to human beings. A series of case studies is presented, including one that examines the cofactors of alcohol consumption and cigar...
