The content, though known, wasn't appreciated as much til the author entered the hallowed halls of old farthood himself. He is an avuncular storyteller and had a lot of fun in the writing of these very readable pages.

In view of the growing maturity of the two fields and the potential importance of advancing our knowledge in the area of oxidative...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) At the beginning of the century the average life span in developed societies was less than 50 years. It is now more than 70 years and will continue to increase in the near future. Aging is a challenge to science and society. There are several theories of aging. The programmed aging hypothesis suggests that aging cannot be altered by any external influence, that aging is programmed from the beginning of life until the end of senescence. Another theory is based on genetic instability, with repair processes correcting errors in the cells that cause aging. Aging processes manifest themselves at...
