Biochemistry of Scandium and Yttrium, Part 2: Biochemistry and Applications
Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
978-1-4613-6935-6 (ISBN)
Improved analytical techniques have revealed that scandium and yttrium are present throughout living matter, even though only a relatively limited number of species have been analyzed so far. This fact of course has far-ranging implications for biological and environmental concerns.
The major impacts of scandium and yttrium in science, technology, and medicine will be of interest to a wide variety of researchers, including geochemists, inorganic and organic chemists, clinical biochemists, and those specializing in environmental protection.
