Opis

This book discusses the application of chiral chromatography in monitoring and characterization of chiral organic pollutants in food and the environment. Discussions on the environmental behavior--biodegradation, chiral inversion, adsorption--and toxicity provides valuable information on the risks to the food supply posed by chiral pollutants.
