Metal Toxicology Handbook

Metal Toxicology Handbook

Heavy metals and metalloids singly or in combination induce toxic manifestations either through acute or chronic pathology. In particular long-term chronic exposure to diverse heavy metals and metalloids to humans and animals can lead to numerous physical muscular neurological nephrological and diverse degenerative diseases and dysfunctions including multiple sclerosis muscular dystrophy Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases cardiovascular disorders and several others. Recognized heavy metals such as lead mercury arsenic cadmium thallium and hexavalent chromium are known for enormous toxicity. The immediate vital signs of acute heavy metal exposure include nausea vomiting diarrhea and acute abdominal pain. Mercury has been identified as the most toxic heavy metal and mercury poisoning is known as acrodynia or pink disease. Similarly lead another toxic heavy metal was at one time an integral part of painting. Metal Toxicology Handbook further explains and discusses the varying attributes of metals discussing toxicity safety and proper human utilization of metals. Beginning with a broad overview of metals metalloids redox biology and neurodegeneration and going further into the roles benefits and toxicity of metals with each section the text contains 28 chapters from eminent researchers and scientists in their respective fields and is a must-have for anyone researching the potential toxicity in metals. Key Features Discusses the pathology of metal toxicity Highlights the benefits of metals Explains the mechanism and salient features of restoring metabolic homeostasis Highlights dose-dependent beneficial and adverse effects of vanadium safety and toxicity The initial introductory section provides a broad overview of metals metalloids redox biology and neurodegeneration. The second section discusses the pathology of metal toxicity in two chapters while the third section highlights the mechanism and salient features of restoring metabolic homeostasis in two chapters. The fourth section demonstrates the aspect of radionuclides toxicity. In a change of pace the fifth section discusses the benefits of metals in four chapters. The sixth section titled Toxic Manifestations by Diverse Heavy Metals and Metalloids provides fourteen chapters that discuss the toxicological mechanism and manifestation of individual metals. The editors have crafted a commentary titled A Treatise on Metal Toxicity and summarized a vivid scenario of metal toxicity and its consequences.

Networks of Influence and Power Business Culture and Identity in Liverpool's Merchant Community c.1800 to 1914

Networks of Influence and Power Business Culture and Identity in Liverpool's Merchant Community c.1800 to 1914

During the nineteenth century Liverpool became the heart of an international maritime network. As the 'second city' of Empire its merchants and shipowners operated within a transnational commercial and financial system while its trading connections stimulated the development of new markets and their integration within an increasingly global economy. This ground-breaking volume brings together ten original contributions that reflect upon the development of the city's business community from the early-nineteenth century to the outbreak of the First World War with an emphasis on the period from 1851 to 1912. It offers the first detailed analysis of Liverpool's merchant community within a conceptual and historiographical framework which focuses on the economic social and cultural role of business elites in the nineteenth century. It explores the extent to which business success was predicated on the maintenance of networks of trust; analyses the importance of business culture in structuring commercial operations; and discusses the role of ethics trust and reputation within the changing framework of the business environment. Particular attention is paid to the role of women and the important contribution of the family to commercial success and the maintenance of social networks. Changes in business practice and social networks are also examined within a spatial context in order to assess the impact of the development of a distinct commercial centre and the clustering of commercial activity on interaction reputation and trust while particular attention is paid to the effect of suburbanization on existing associational networks the social cohesiveness of business culture and the cultural identity of the merchant community as a whole. | Networks of Influence and Power Business Culture and Identity in Liverpool's Merchant Community c. 1800 to 1914

The Routledge Handbook of Language and Youth Culture

The Routledge Handbook of Language and Youth Culture

The Routledge Handbook of Language and Youth Culture offers the first essential grounding of critical youth studies within sociolinguistic research. Young people are often seen to be at the frontline of linguistic creativity and pioneering communicative technologies. Their linguistic practices are considered a primary means of exploring linguistic change as well as the role of language in social life such as how language and identity ideology and power intersect. Bringing together leading and cutting-edge perspectives from thought leaders across the globe this handbook: addresses how young people’s cultural practices as well as forces like class gender ethnicity and race influence language considers emotions affect age and ageism materiality embodiment and the political youth as well as processes of unmooring language and place critically reflects on our understandings of terms such as ‘language’ ‘youth’ and ‘culture’ drawing on insights from youth studies to help contextualise age within power dynamics features examples from a wide range of linguistic contexts such as social media and the classroom as well as expressions such as graffiti gestures and different musical genres including grime and hip-hop Providing important insights into how young people think feel act and communicate in the complexity of a polarised world The Routledge Handbook of Language and Youth Culture is an invaluable resource for advanced students and researchers in disciplines including sociolinguistics linguistic anthropology multilingualism youth studies and sociology.

The Routledge Handbook of Public Taxation in Medieval Europe

The Routledge Handbook of Public Taxation in Medieval Europe

Beginning in the twelfth century taxation increasingly became an essential component of medieval society in most parts of Europe. The state-building process and relations between princes and their subject cities or between citizens and their rulers were deeply shaped by fiscal practices. Although medieval taxation has produced many publications over the past decades there remains no synthesis of this important subject. This volume provides a comprehensive overview on a European scale and suggests new paths of inquiry. It examines the fiscal systems and practices of medieval Europe including essential themes such as medieval fiscal theory and the power to tax; royal and urban taxation; and Church taxation. It goes on to survey the entire European continent as well as including comparative chapters on the non-European medieval world exploring questions on how taxation developed and functioned; what kinds of problems authorities encountered assessing their fiscal power; and the circulation of fiscal cultures and practices across cities and kingdoms. The book also provides a glossary of the most important types of medieval taxes giving an essential definition of key terms cited in the chapters. The Routledge Handbook of Public Taxation in Medieval Europe will appeal to a large audience from seasoned scholars who need a comprehensive synthesis to students and younger scholars in search of an overview of this critical subject.

Multi-Dimensional Liquid Chromatography Principles Practice and Applications

Multi-Dimensional Liquid Chromatography Principles Practice and Applications

Two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) is finding increasingly wide application principally due to the analysis of mixtures of moderate to high complexity. Many industries are developing increasingly complex products that are challenging the separation capabilities of state-of-the-art 1D-LC and need new analytical methodologies with substantially more resolving power and 2D-LC meets that need. This text organized by two leaders in the field establishes a sound fundamental basis for the principles of the technique followed by a discussion of important practical considerations. The book begins with an introduction to multi-dimensional separations and a discussion of the history and development of the technique over the past 40 years followed by several chapters that provide a theoretical basis for development of 2D-LC methods including foundational concepts regarding separation complementarity under-sampling and dynamics of liquid chromatography separations. Instrumentation for 2D-LC is discussed extensively including practical aspects such as interface selection and setup. Building on this foundation two separate chapters are focused on method development for non-comprehensive and comprehensive separations followed by a chapter dedicated to data analysis. Finally applications of 2D-LC in several fields ranging from pharmaceutical analysis to polymer science are summarized. The book is an important resource for both students and practitioners who are already using 2D-LC or are interested in getting started in the field. Key Features: Demonstrates the conditions under which a 2D-LC method should be considered as an alternative to a 1D-LC method Establishes a sound fundamental basis of the principles of the technique followed by guidelines for method optimization Provides a single source for technical knowledge advances and practical guidance described in recent literature Assists with the initial decision to develop a 2D-LC method Guides the reader in developing a high-quality method that meets the needs of their application | Multi-Dimensional Liquid Chromatography Principles Practice and Applications
