This book is written for researchers and students interested in the
function and role of chemical elements in biological or
environmental systems. Experts have long known that the Periodic
System of Elements (PSE) provides only an inadequate chemical
description of elements of biological, environmental or medicinal
importance. This book explores the notion of a Biological System of
the Elements (BSE) established on accurate and precise
multi-element data, including evolutionary aspects, representative
sampling procedures, inter-element relationships, the physiological
function of elements and uptake mechanisms. The book further
explores the concept Stoichiometric Network Analysis (SNA) to
analyze the biological roles of chemical species. Also discussed is
the idea of ecotoxicological identity cards which give a first-hand
description of properties relevant for biological and toxicological
features of a certain chemical element and its geo biochemically
plausible speciation form. The focus of this book goes beyond both
classical bioinorganic chemistry and toxicology.
