Main Description
This book presents refereed and edited papers from the 6th International Symposium on Poisonous Plants, held in Scotland in August 2001. It covers a range of topics from plant biochemistry to toxic effects in animals (particularly grazing farmed animals) and humans. The contents include the evolution of antinutrients and toxins in plants, biomedical applications of toxins in plants, isolation, identification and effects of plant and fungal toxins and the effect of plant toxins on aversion to plants in animal diets.
Reviews
• "This book is a 'must' for everyone who works in the field of animal nutrition or medicinal chemistry, but even those toxinologists who are not working in these fields directly will have their profit as there is much material explaining pharmacological and toxicological effects."
G Habermehl, Toxicon, 43(2004)
