Phthalate esters are an important class of chemicals widely used in commercial applications, primarily as plasticizers to soften vinyl, but they are also used in consumer products. This book reviews the state of the scientific knowledge of phthalate esters in the environment. Key information reported includes: analytical methodologies; a compilation of concentration measurements in water, sediment, soil, air, dust, and food; plus an assessment of critical exposure pathways. In addition, key physical properties data and fate characteristics that control exposure are reviewed. Also included are

This volume is devoted to cancer and atherosclerosis, two of the most important proliferative pathologies in the world today. This book provides a useful point of reference on the mechanisms that link cholesterol esters to cell proliferation, summarizing the latest advances both in basic science and clinical research. This book will be of undoubted value to biomedical students and teachers, as well as those actively engaged in research on cholesterol metabolism, cancer, and atherosclerosis.
