Produktbeschreibung

This second eidtion explores new and updated techniques used to understand solid target-specific models in computational toxicology. Chapters are divided into four sections, detailing molecular descriptors, QSAR and read-across, molecular and data modeling techniques, computational toxicology in drug discovery, molecular fingerprints, AI techniques, and safe drug design. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Computational Toxicology: Methods and Protocols, Second Editon aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
