Contributors present an international, interdisciplinary approach to the biology and biological chemistry of cyanide and related compounds. Addressed are the microbial metabolism of HCN and organic nitrile compounds, cyanogenesis in higher plants, qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis of cyanogenic glycosides, and detoxification of hydrogen cyanide by animals.Ciba Foundation symposium ;140.CyanidesPhysiological effectCongressesCyanidesMetabolismCongressesCyanidesMetabolic detoxificationCongressesCyanidesPhysiological effectCyanidesMetabolismCyanidesMetabolic detoxification574.19574.19214Symposium on Cyanide Compounds in Biology(1988 :London, England)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830784403321Cyanide compounds in biology366296UNINA
