Advances in technological developments have led to increase in
buildup of pollutants in the environment. Increase in concentration
of pollutants due to ill planned anthropogenic activities has
created a situation of a serious concern for human race. The
present book addresses the issues related to increase in
concentration of pollutants in the biosphere, protocols to assess
the toxicity of pollutants and how it can affect human race. It
also summarizes some protective agents present in the form of
natural products which can protect us from the harmful effects of
these pollutants. The first chapter of the book focuses on
carcinogenicity of environmental pollutants. Next four chapters
focus on specific emerging pollutants which have increased in
concentration due to anthropogenic activities. These are followed
by a couple of chapters on the analytical aspects and various
techniques and bioassays that can be used to estimate the toxic
effects of these pollutants. In the last three chapters of book
authors have tried to compile information available regarding the
phytochemicals which can have protective effects against the
carcinogenic nature of pollutants.
