SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In-depth coverage of advances in molecular biology, indicating the importance of drug and xenobiotic conjugates as transport forms of biologically active compounds. Part Two deals with the regulation of Phase II conjugation, while Part Three critically reviews the importance of drug conjugates in pharmacology and toxicology.
