The volume provides an in-depth coverage of the field of toxicokinetics including exposure assessment, routes of exposure of toxicants, and distribution, biotransformation, and excretion of toxicant. Dosimetry modeling, including physiologically based pharmacokinetic models, and extrapolation modeling are covered.
