Volume 8, solely devoted to the toxicology of metals and metalloids as well as their compounds, focuses on human health. Not surprisingly, all related research areas are rapidly developing due to the role of metals and metalloids in the environment, for the work place, for food and water supply, etc. Written by 40 internationally recognized experts, the 14 stimulating chapters provide an authoritative and timely resource for scientists working in the wide range from analytical, physical, inorganic, and environmental biochemistry all the way through to toxicology, physiology, and medicine. Volume 8 highlights, supported by nearly 1900 references, in a comprehensive and timely manner the principles of risk assessment regarding the effects of metals on human health. It examines how metal ions and their compounds affect the pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal (including liver), hematological, immune, and neurological systems, the kidney, skin and eyes, as well as human reproduction and development. MILS-8 terminates with the role of metal ions as endocrine disrupters, in genotoxicity, and cancer risk.

La chromatographie d'échange d'ions est une technique incontournable couramment utilisée en chimie analytique, notamment pour le contrôle de la qualité de l'eau. Ce livre a pour vocation de présenter les différentes techniques de chromatographie des ions que sont l'échange d'ions traditionnel ou en mode recul d'ionisation, l'appariement d'ions et l'exclusion ionique. L'utilisation des résines échangeuses d'ions dans un cadre industriel afin d'épurer des solutions aqueuses de leur contenu ionique est également abordée.Les différents modes de détection de la chromatographie ionique sont traités, notamment la détection conductimétrique avec les phénomènes d'écart à la linéarité inhérents à ce mode de détection. La chromatographie d'échange d'ions traitant d'analyse dans l'eau, la chimie des solutions aqueuses constitue le fil conducteur de cet ouvrage.Avant tout pédagogique et principalement destiné aux étudiants de l'enseignement supérieur qui souhaitent développer et approfondir leurs connaissances de la chromatographie liquide et plus particulièrement ionique, ce livre pourra également être utile aux techniciens et aux ingénieurs qui s'intéressent à l'analyse et à l'épuration de l'eau et qui souhaitent avoir des éclaircissements ou bien approfondir leurs connaissances dans ce domaine précis de la chimie.

This book is the second volume of a two-volume set summarizing 40 years of key research findings directly related to metal-resistant Cupriavidus/Ralstonia (Betaproteobacteria). In this second volume, the structural and catalytic data from bacterial primary and secondary transporters (P-ATPases, tripartite chemiosmotic cation/proton efflux systems, cation diffusion facilitators, Major Facilitator Superfamily and some minor categories) are outlined and detailed for the corresponding C. metallidurans proteins. The available three-dimensional structures are reviewed in detail, including RND and membrane fusion proteins (from tripartite chemiosmotic cation/proton efflux systems), sigma and anti-sigma regulatory proteins of the cnr efflux system (resistance to cobalt and nickel) and various periplasmic proteins mainly involved in the response to copper and mercury. In addition, the first volume sketches the historical and geographical context of these bacteria, which are mostly found in industrial and polluted environments linked to zinc and other non-ferrous metallurgy, to illustrate the interactions between bacteria and human activities and the possible evolutionary consequences on bacterial genomes especially as far as the association of metal resistance genes with mobile genetic elements is concerned. It provides a detailed description of the response and underlying genetic determinants of type strain Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 to a variety of metals. With high level resistance to cadmium, chromate, cobalt, copper, mercury, nickel, lead and zinc mediated by well-known genes for detoxification carried by its megaplasmids pMOL28 and pMOL30. This description is complemented with the genomic context of the metal response genes in C. metallidurans CH34 with a focus on its mobilome including insertion sequence elements, transposons, integrative and conjugative elements and genomic islands.
