Metal ions are currently used for such applications as diabetes,
anti-inflammatory, rheumatoid arthritis, psychiatric, and
anti-ulcer medications, using compounds of vanadium, copper and
zinc, gold, lithium, and bismuth, respectively. This text explores
these applications in addition to an assessment of chelation
therapy, uses in environmental sciences, and the human health
effects of metal ion deficiency for several elements-magnesium,
calcium, zinc, and iron. Featuring contributions from 29
internationally recognized experts, this book offers a timely,
authoritative look at ionic complexes in medicine.
