Biological Chemistry of Arsenic, Antimony and Bismuth is an essential overview of the biological chemistry of these three elements, with contributions from an international panel of experts. Topics covered include:
- chemistry of As, Sb and Bi
- biological chemistry of arsenic
- biological chemistry of Sb and Bi
- arsenic and antimony speciation in environmental and biological samples
- arsenic in traditional chinese medicine
- arsenic in aquifers
- biomethylation of As, Sb and Bi
- uptake of metalloids by cells
- bismuth complexes of porphyrins and their potential in medical applications
- Helicobacter pylori and bismuth
- metabolism of arsenic trioxide in blood of the acute promyelocytic leukemia patients
- anticancer properties of As, Sb and Bi
- radio-Bi in cancer therapy
- genotoxicity of As, Sb and Bi
- metallomics as a new technique for As, Sb and Bi
- metalloproteomics for As, Sb and Bi
Biological Chemistry of Arsenic, Antimony and Bismuth conveys the essential aspects of the bioinorganic chemistry of these three elements, making this book a valuable complement to more general bioinorganic chemistry texts and more specialized topical reviews. It will find a place on the bookshelves of practitioners, researchers and students working in bioinorganic chemistry and medicinal chemistry.
