DOWNLOAD EBOOKA balanced view of the causes and the prevention of the iodine defi-ciency disorders is presented in this comprehensive text. The mechanisms of goitrogenesis are explained, along with preven-tive and control measures. Descriptions of environmental com-pounds and other ecological as well as host factors involved in this process are highlighted. Public health and economic impact of the problems and treatment of individual cases are discussed. Overview sections include: Environmental goitrogenesis Sulfurated organics Flavonoids Polyhydroxyphenols and phenol derivatives Phthalate esters and phthalic acid derivatives Polyhalogenated and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons Hydroxypyridines Inorganics Epidemiological aspects of environmental goitrogenesis Goiter endemias attributed to goitrogens in foodstuffs Goiter endemias attributed to chemical and bacterial pollution of water supplies

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is the staple food of more than 300 million people in the world. Though cassava is utilized in a variety of ways, scientific books of any category written on the postharvest aspects of cassava are relatively few. The effect of this paucity was strikingly felt during recent years. This was one of the impelling reasons behind the present venture which, it is hoped, will stimulate other publications on this neglected crop.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis comprehensive treatise offers an in-depth discussion of natural toxicants in plants, emphasizing their effects as defenses against herbivory. Coevolution of plants and her-bivores are covered with a detailed treatment of toxicant metabolism and systemic effects in mammalian tissues. Con-sideration of the economic importance of plant toxins, modi-fication by plant breeding, management of toxico-sis, and toxicant problems in various geographic areas are in-cluded. Each volume offers an extensive description of chemistry, biosynthesis, analysis, distribution in plants, metabolism in mam-mals and insects, and practical problems in humans and livestock.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNationally and internationally recognized clinicians and researchers combine the latest understanding of thyroid physiology and pathophysiology with the most up-to-date clinical knowledge to help clinical endocrinologists and primary care physicians understand and treat a wide variety of thyroid disorders from birth to old age. Topics range from neonatal thyroid screening, thyroid dysfunction during infancy and childhood, peripartum thyroid disorders, and thyroid disease in the elderly to the pathogenesis and treatment of nodular goiter, thyroid cancer, thyrotoxicosis, and hypothyroidism. The book takes advantage of the latest clinical thinking and of the newest findings of the molecular biology of thyroid hormone action.
