Bioinorganic Chemistry: Inorganic Elements in the Chemistry of Life
The second edition of Bioinorganic Chemistry provides a comprehensive overview of the role of inorganic elements in biological processes. It covers topics such as the function of metals in photosynthesis, the transport and storage of essential elements, catalysis by hemoproteins, and the biological roles of metals like molybdenum, tungsten, vanadium, and chromium. The book also explores the function and transport of alkaline and alkaline earth metal cations, biomineralization, and the bioinorganic chemistry of toxic metals. New topics in this edition include materials aspects of bioinorganic chemistry, elemental cycles, bioorganometallic chemistry, medical imaging, and therapeutic advances.
