Nanthi Bolan (Professor of Environmental Science, University of Newcastle),Chun Guang Li (Leader of Pre-Clinical Research Program and Head of Herbal Analysis and Pharmacology Laboratory at The National Institute of Complementary Medicine (NICM), University of Western Sydney),Yong Sik Ok (Korea Biochar Research Center, O-Jeong Eco-Resilience Institute (OJERI) and Division of Environmental Science and Ecological Engineering, Korea University, Seoul, Republic of Korea)

Remedy and Contaminant Components in Complementary Medicines provides 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.
