Remedy and Contaminant Components in Complementary Medicines

Autor Nanthi Bolan, Chun Guang Li, Yong Sik Ok
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 feb 2020
Remedy and Contaminant Components in Complementary Medicinesprovides a broad overview of contaminants in various types of complementary medicines for researchers from chemistry, pharmacology and environmental health backgrounds. By bringing together experts in multiple sub-disciplines, including medicinal chemistry, pharmacology and environmental contamination, the book's editors have amalgamated a single central resource for an introduction to the discipline. Chapters include updates on organic, inorganic and microbial contaminants in herbal, ayurvedic, traditional and other forms of complementary medicines, covering their sources, characterization, toxicity and health risk assessment. The book also includes a chapter on the analytical methods used for the characterization of contaminants.
Every chapter incorporates comprehensive reviews covering the above topics with recent references, to introduce researchers to this field of interest and provide them with information that can easily be built upon.


  • Provides a fundamental understanding of the sources, distribution and toxicity of contaminants in complementary medicines
  • Includes clinical case studies of the toxicity of contaminants in complementary medicines in many countries
  • Covers the existing literature on the interactions of contaminants in complementary medicines with human health
  • Presents state-of-science information on contaminants reaching the human food chain through complementary medicines
