Overview

This is a handbook for researchers and professional ecotoxicologists working on problems where there is sparse information on environmental toxins. It explains predictive mechanisms for obtaining information on likely outcomes based on the chemical structure of the compounds involved. Since Structure-Activity Relationships can be used as a predictive means to obtain information on chemicals if these are not available from experiments, these data can then be used for environmental fate and effects predictions and eventually for risk assessments. The multidisciplinary approach combines chemistry, biology, ecology, statistics and further related sciences, providing the reader with a theoretical basis as well as practical applications. This book should be of interest to environmental chemists, ecotoxicologists, environmental health workers, environmental risk assessors, chemists, and ecologists.
