Summary
Analysis of Endocrine Disrupting Compounds in Food provides unique and comprehensive professional reference source covering most recent analytical methodology of endocrine disrupting compounds in food. Editor Nollet and his team of international contributors address most recent advances in analysis of endocrine disrupting chemicals in food. While covering conventional methods of analysis, the book focuses on leading-edge technologies that recently have been introduced.
