Biochemistry of Scandium and Yttrium gathers together existing
knowledge about scandium and yttrium from a wide variety of
disciplines. Part 2 addresses the biochemical aspects of these two
elements, and the various medical and environmental applications.
(Part 1 presents a comparative study of the physical and chemical
properties of scandium and yttrium, looking at both their
similarities and their differences.) While these elements are
relatively rare in nature, these books will show that they have
unusual physical and chemical properties, and a disproportionate
number of important applications. Improved analytical techniques
have revealed that scandium and yttrium are present throughout
living matter, even though only a relatively limited number of
species have been analyzed so far. This fact of course has
far-ranging implications for biological and environmental concerns.
The major impacts of scandium and yttrium in science, technology,
and medicine will be of interest to a wide variety of researchers,
including geochemists, inorganic and organic chemists, clinical
biochemists, and those specializing in environmental protection.

interactions of scandium and yttrium with molecules of biological
interest, such as organic acids, carbohydrates, proteins,
nucleotides, and other biologically active molecules. The major

Biochemistry of Scandium and Yttrium, Part 1 and Part 2 will be
especially welcome because the last book published on the
biochemistry of scandium appeared over 20 years ago, and the only
book mentioning the biochemistry of yttrium came out in 1990.
