Description

Book Synopsis
This core reference explains current strategies for immunotoxicology pharmaceutical safety assessments, which can reduce drug candidate attrition and streamline the development process.

Trade Review
"I would recommend this book to toxicologists wishing to develop their knowledge in the specialised field of immunotoxicology. The book provides extremely clear indication on the assessment of immunotoxicology and contains many recent references at the end of each chapter." (BTS Newsletter, Summer 2009)
