This book contains information on the medicinal uses of inorganics, that is, of elements such as boron, lithium, selenium, to name a few, as well as metal-containing species. In keeping with the notion that healthy mammals rely on (bio-essential) metals for the normal functioning of approximately a third of their proteins and enzymes, a large number of drugs are metal-based and considerable effort is being devoted to developing both second- and third-generation drugs as well as generating novel meMetalsTherapeutic useMetalsDiagnostic useMetalsTherapeutic use.MetalsDiagnostic use.615.23615/.23Gielen M(Marcel),1938-1608337Tiekink Edward R.
