The past two decades have seen tremendous developments in the field of metal- and metalloid-containing macromolecules. The design of new monomers containing metal and metalloid elements and their subsequent polymerization has resulted in a vast array of inorganic and organometallic polymers with interesting properties and applications. This volume features 30 articles based on presentations given in the Metal- and Metalloid-Containing Macromulecules Symposium at the 39th IUPAC Congress and 86th Conference of the Canadian Society for Chemistry in Ottawa from August 10-15, 2003. The articles, wr

Subsequent to the profiling of organometal(loid) compounds in important biogeogenic and anthropogenic deposits, the importance of this class of compounds for human health are evaluated by the analysis of both physicochemical and biological formation, distribution and transformation processes. Multidisciplinary articles written by experts from disciplines as diverse as biogeochemistry, ecotoxicology, analytical chemistry, microbiology and genetics estimate the global levels of biogeogenic and anthropogenic emissions of organometal(loid) compounds, and thus obtain  an insight to processes wh

Metal- and metalloid-containing macromolecules are defined as large molecules (i.e., polymers, DNA, proteins) that contain a metal or metalloid group affiliated with the molecule. The first volume in this series consists of a number of reviews of the field, to give the reader a background to build upon.  Compiled by an all-star cast of macromolecular experts, this guide: Provides useful descriptions of applications for the reader to apply in his/her research into materials, polymers, and medicine/drug development. Covers non-linear optical materials, speciality m
