Work on vitamin K had three independent beginnings. They were toxicological, nutritional, and biochemical in nature. 

This book deals with the potential health consequences of pesticides, food additives, and drugs. All of these are chemicals. The sciences of toxicology, nutrition, and pharmacology revolve around the study of how such chemicals interact with our bodies. As will be demonstrated, the only factor which often puts a specific chemical under the umbrella of one of these disciplines is the source and dose of the chemical or the intent of its action. The science is the same in all three. This is often forgotten ...

Toxicological, nutritional, and microbiological tests support the safety of irradiated food for consumption and some 50 countries granted national clearances of irradiation of at least one or more food items of food classes (Farkas 2004). Legislator authorities require that irradiated food products be labeled. In general, the international food irradiation symbol, the so-called Radura logo (O Fig. 23.16) is required with a statement that the product has been intentionally subjected to radiation.

Total Elements There is a dearth of elemental concentration data for a wide range of nutritionally, toxicologically, clinically, and environmentally pertinent elements. Some of the elements for which total concentration information is still required, usually at the low end of concentration range but occasionally at the high end, are Al, Ba, B, Be, Br, Cs, F, I, Li, Mo, N, Pt, S, Sb, Si, Sn, Th, Ti, TI, U, V, W, rare earth elements, and radionuclides. Thus, it would seem advisable to certify each new RM for as many elements as possible so that certified values would be available for a larger number of elements in addition to the small number of core elements typical of many current RMs.

The toxicokinetic and toxicological behavior of lead can be affected by interactions with essential elements and nutrients (for a review see Mushak and Crocetti 1996). In humans, the interactive behavior of lead and various nutritional factors is particularly significant for children, since this age group is not only sensitive to the effects of lead, but also experiences the greatest changes in relative nutrient status. Nutritional deficiencies are especially pronounced in children of lower socioeconomic status however, children of all socioeconomic strata can be affected.
