Ovarian Toxicology

Researchers have substantially contributed to our understanding of the impact of xenobiotics and environmental factors on ovarian function. This volume substantially updates newly investigated ovotoxicants as well as improved mechanistic insights that have emerged since the first edition. Topics include ovarian physiology and the metabolism of xenobiotics; the effect of pesticides, heavy metals, phthalates, BPA, and cigarette smoking on the ovaries; ovarian cancer; and epidemiology and human health risk assessment for environmental chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The book is essential for those who would benefit from a survey of the impact of xenobiotic chemicals on ovarian function._x005F_x000D_ _x005F_x000D_
