Toxicological and Environmental Chemistry is an international journal devoted to the fundamental aspects of analysis, metabolism and general chemistry and biochemistry of xenobiotic compounds and natural toxins as related to the environment and human health. The journal is interdisciplinary in outlook and areas covered in it include: analytical chemistry methodology, the development of new analytical methods and improvement of existing ones, instrumental aspects, automation biological sciences toxicology, pharmacology, structure- activity relationship, mode of action, biological testing when presented in context with chemical and/or biochemical data and explanation biological chemistry metabolism, biochemical effect inorganic chemistry trace elements in food and environment, complexes and metal chelates organic chemistry synthesis of standard labelled materials, identification of metabolites and breakdown products, chemical reactio ns of compounds, stability under environmental conditions physical chemistry photochemistry, radiochemistry.
Contributions to the journal will include research papers and review or state-of-the-art papers submitted or invited from experts in government, industry and universities. The types of compounds considered are pesticides, organic and inorganic air and water pollutants, toxic industrial chemicals, food additives, drugs, toxic natural products, radioactive materials, and carcinogenic, teratogenic, mutagenic and other compounds that display long-term biological effects. |
