Biological Monitoring of Cadmium

  • Chapter
Book cover Biological Monitoring of Toxic Metals

Part of the book series: Rochester Series on Environmental Toxicity ((RSET))

Abstract

For an understanding of the possibilities and needs for biological monitoring of cadmium, it is necessary to briefly review occurrence in the environment. The main part of this review, however, will deal with the metabolic model of cadmium and the possibilities of accurate analysis in biological media. More detailed reviews are available (Friberg et al., 1985, 1986a,b).
