    About this ebook

    Part of the IUPAC Series on Analytical and Physical Chemistry of Environmental Systems, this book collects and integrates current knowledge of the chemical mechanisms, kinetics, transport and interactions involved in processes at biological interfaces in environmental systems.
    * Provides important, current knowledge for environmental scientists and related fields
    * Highlights key directions for future research
    * Follows on from a previous title in the series, Metal Speciation and Bioavailability in Aquatic Systems
    * Written by internationally renowned editors and authors

    Kinetics and Transport at Biointerfaces will be a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in understanding the fundamentals of chemical kinetics and transport processes in bioenvironmental systems. The content is required reading for chemists, physicists and biologists in environmentally oriented disciplines.
