Alternative Methods in Neurotoxicology

The volume Alternative Methods in Neurotoxicology to be published in the Advances in Neurotoxicology series will give you an overview of important in vitro and non-vertebrate animal models available to study the neurotoxicity of a range of toxicants of occupational and environmental relevance. The evaluation of neurotoxicity will include behavioral, morphological, cellular, subcellular and molecular end-points. The volume will covers the most popular non-vertebrate organism (Drosophila melanogaster and C. elegans) as well as new emerging invetebrates. The in vitro methodologies will include the use of human stem cells and neurospheres in developmental neurotoxicology. The volume will give an up-to-date about the utilization of popular invertabrates (Droshophila melanogaster and Caenorhabits elegans) in neurotoxicology The volume will bring concise information on emerging invertebrate models in neurotoxicology (from basic to environmental approaches) The volume will present an up-to-date on the in vitro exploitation of human stem cell in developmental neurotoxicology INDICE: PrefaceJoao Batista Rocha, Michael Aschner and Lucio G.
