The field of Bioinorganic Chemistry has grown significantly in recent years; now one of the major sub-disciplines of Inorganic Chemistry, it has also pervaded other areas of the life sciences due to its highly interdisciplinary nature."Bioinorganic Chemistry: Inorganic Elements in the Chemistry of Life, Second Edition" provides a detailed introduction to the role of inorganic elements in biology, taking a systematic element-by-element approach to the topic. The second edition of this classic text has been fully revised and updated to include new structure information, emerging developments in the field, and an increased focus on medical applications of inorganic compounds. New topics have been added including materials aspects of bioinorganic chemistry, elemental cycles, bioorganometallic chemistry, medical imaging and therapeutic advances.Topics covered include: Metals at the center of photosynthesisUptake, transport, and storage of essential elementsCatalysis through hemoproteinsBiological functions of molybdenum, tungsten, vanadium and chromiumFunction and transport of alkaline and alkaline earth metal cationsBiomineralizationBiological functions of the non-metallic inorganic elementsBioinorganic chemistry of toxic metalsBiochemical behavior of radionuclides and medical imaging using inorganic compoundsChemotherapy involving non-essential elements This full color text provides a concise and comprehensive review of bioinorganic chemistry for advanced students of chemistry, biochemistry, biology, medicine and environmental science.
