The Chemistry and Biology of Benz[a]anthracenes Paperback / softback
by M. S. Newman, B. Tierney, S. Veeraraghavan
Part of the Cambridge Monographs on Cancer Research series
Paperback / softback
Description
First published in 1988, this volume surveys the chemical synthesis and biological activity of the benz[a]anthracenes.
These compounds occur in smoke and mineral oils and a few have been shown to be potent carcinogens.
This volume was the first to review, systematically and in depth, the organic synthesis of these compounds as well as their metablolism, interactions with nucleic acids and protein, mutagenicity and carcinogenicity.
Such studies have important implications in determining mechanism and specificity of chemically induced carcinogenesis.
