Toxicology is the study of toxicants, but this subject is so vast that it has much to relate. An attempt has been made to provide a comprehensive and authentic content on the subject in this book. An updated information in this book ranges from the principles of toxicology to the toxicology testing. From the Environmental monitoring to the impact of pollutant on the ecosystems, from the solid waste management to the study of agencies related to protection of environmental health. The Book shall be a good source of information for the undergraduate as well as post graduate students. The Researchers shall also benefit from fresh approach and content from this text.
