Chiral environmental pollutants : analytical methods, environmental implications and toxicology / Roland Kallenborn, Heinrich Hühnerfuss, Hassan Y. Aboul-Enein, Imran Ali.

Now in its updated second edition, this book describes emerging chiral environmental pollutants and their importance in environmental and human toxicology, as well as enantiomer selective separation and analytical methods. Compared to the first edition from 2001, the book has been completely restruc...
