Produktbeschreibung

Literally thousands of papers have been published on nitric oxide overthe past ten years. But there is no single monograph available that haspreviously attempted to summarize the important features of the roles ofnitric oxide in inflammation. The voluminous literature regarding theincredible range of chemical and biological effects of nitric oxide andreactive nitrogen oxide species, RNOS, may present a tangle of confusinginformation to the researcher. This volume brings together experts fromnitric oxide and inflammation research and presents a concise up-to-dateoverview as well as future aspects of this rapidly growing field.
