Stress Proteins as Biomarkers of Metal Exposure and Toxicity

Stress Proteins as Biomarkers of Metal Exposure and Toxicity 

The development of more sensitive and predictive test methods to characterize the hazards associated with xenobiotic exposure is an area of intense research in toxicology. One approach is to develop methodologies which would define biomarkers of exposure/toxicity. A biomarker can be defined broadly as a change which occurs in a biological system that is quantitatively
