Review
The material presented appears to be appropriate for a graduate, or upper-level undergraduate, introductory course in forensic toxicology. This book would also be useful as a review tool for those studying for board certification examinations in toxicology or as a quick desk reference for laboratorians working in a clinical chemistry or toxicology laboratory who are frequently consulted with questions about overdoses and poisonings. Review of 2nd Edition --Clinical Chemistry
Product Description
This updated edition of the classic, best-selling textbook -- including new chapters on methods validation, benzodiazepines, and GHB -- is ideal for the classroom and the reference shelf. Since the publication of the first edition in 1999, Principles of Forensic Toxicology has been used extensively for teaching students taking a one-semester course in forensic toxicology. It has also proven to be an invaluable reference for laboratorians.
The first section provides an introduction to postmortem forensic toxicology, human performance forensic toxicology, forensic drug testing, and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
The second section is devoted to analytical principles, including both theory and applications. Methodologies covered include specimen preparation, spectrophotometry, chromatography, immunoassay, mass spectrometry, and methods validation.
The third section covers commonly encountered analytes, including alcohol, benzodiazepines, GHB, miscellaneous central nervous system depressants, opioids, cocaine, marijuana, amphetamines/sympathomimetic amines, hallucinogens, anticonvulsants, antiarrhythmics, antidepressants, neuroleptics, carbon monoxide/cyanide, inhalants, and metals.
