<DIV>edited by Luis M. Botana. <BR><BR><FONT color=#ff0000>Phycotoxins:
Chemistry and Biochemistry</FONT> presents the most updated <BR>information
available on phycotoxins. Major emphases are given to <BR>chemistry and
biochemistry, while minor emphases are given to the aspects <BR>of origin,
toxicology, or analytical methodology. The book discusses 16 <BR>phycotoxins, 7
on those affecting the nervous systems, 4 affecting other <BR>body systems; and
4 with undefined targets. The detailed information on <BR>chemistry in
Phycotoxins: Chemistry and Biochemistry provides <BR>investigators, regulators,
food technologists and toxicologists an updated <BR>basis on which research in
other areas such as toxicology, mechanism of <BR>action, analytical methodology
and pharmacology can be successfully <BR>developed and expanded.<BR><BR>An
alphabetical listing of toxins presented in the book include: <BR>Azaspiracids,
Brevetoxins, Cyanobacterial toxins, Domoic acid, Gambierols, <BR>Gymnodimines,
prorocentrolides, spirolides, pinnatoxins and cyclic imines, <BR>Maitotoxin,
Okadaic acid and dinophysistoxins, Palytoxins and ostreocins, <BR>Pectenotoxins,
Polycavernosides, and Yessotoxins.<BR><BR>Please visit our website at <A
