It details the harmful effects to human health both as a result of acute and chronic OP exposure and the necessary clinical management of affected patients to reduce their toxic side effects. The book also explains the detrimental effect that OPs have had on the environment and the efforts being made to prevent this in the future. Finally, the book looks at the incidents where OPs have been used as chemical warfare agents. Basic and Clinical Toxicology of Organophosphorus Compounds aims to act as a comprehensive guide to all aspects of OPs and is a key resource for clinical toxicologists and related health professionals involved in the prevention, diagnosis and clinical management of OP patients, toxicologists and other scientists involved in research on OPs including regulatory issues and postgraduate students in toxicology and related fields.PharmacologyEmergency medicineMolecular biologyMedicineEnvironmental healthPharmacology/Toxicologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007Emergency Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H22000Molecular Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700XBiomedicine, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B0000XEnvironmental Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U18005Pharmacology.Emergency medicine.Molecular biology.Medicine.Environmental health.Pharmacology/Toxicology.Emergency Medicine.Molecular Medicine.Biomedicine, general.Environmental Health.610611.01816613.1615Balali-Mood Mahdiedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtAbdollahi Mohammadedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298345603321Basic and Clinical Toxicology of Organophosphorus Compounds2537297UNINA
