CHEMOMETRICS AND CHEMINFORMATICS IN AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY
Explore chemometric and cheminformatic techniques and tools in aquatic toxicology
Chemometrics and Cheminformatics in Aquatic Toxicology delivers an exploration of the existing and emerging problems of contamination of the aquatic environment through various metal and organic pollutants, including industrial chemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, biocides, nanomaterials, pesticides, surfactants, dyes, and more. The book discusses different chemometric and cheminformatic tools for non-experts and their application to the analysis
and modeling of toxicity data of chemicals to various aquatic organisms.
You’ll learn about a variety of aquatic toxicity databases and chemometric software tools and webservers as well as practical examples of model development, including illustrations. You’ll also find case studies and literature reports to round out your understanding of the subject. Finally, you’ll learn about tools and protocols including machine learning, data mining, and QSAR and ligand-based chemical design methods.
Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of:
* A thorough introduction to chemometric and cheminformatic tools and techniques, including machine learning and data mining
* An exploration of aquatic toxicity databases, chemometric software tools, and webservers
* Practical examples and case studies to highlight and illustrate the concepts contained within the book
* A concise treatment of chemometric and cheminformatic tools and their application to the analysis and modeling of toxicity data
Perfect for researchers and students in chemistry and the environmental and pharmaceutical sciences, Chemometrics and Cheminformatics in Aquatic Toxicology will also earn a place in the libraries of professionals in the chemical industry and regulators whose work involves chemometrics.
