ISBN: 9781860942709 / Angielski / Twarda / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Few chemical compounds created by man have caused greater controversy than organophosphates.

As the toxicity of organophosphates is non-specific, it has caused ill health and death in man, and has contributed to adverse...
