{"product_id":"9781634826990","title":"Lead Exposure \u0026 Poisoning","description":"Lead is a heavy metal used since ancient times and is still employed for several industrial purposes due to its suitable physical and chemical properties. It is non-biodegradable and is very persistent in the environment. Human exposure can lead, however, to a wide range of biological effects. Lead (Pb) exposure is known to induce a wide range of physiological and biochemical dysfunctions in humans and animals. This books reviews works collected in international literature dealing with the effects of lead; the environmental contamination of lead and its associated public health risks; the influence of lead at different doses on the structure of intestinal microbial community in vivo and its relationships to intestinal epithelium in vitro; and finally, the effects of fractions of the edible halophyte, Sarcocornia perennis on human kidney cells after Pb intoxication.","brand":"Nova Science Publishers, Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65433492914525,"sku":null,"price":119.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781634826990.jpg?v=1789263160","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/9781634826990","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
