The Bioinorganic Chemistry of the First Row d-Block Metal Ions—An Introduction
Helder M. Marques
Abstract
The role played by the metal ions of the first row of the block in biology is discussed using illustrative examples, and covering current thinking in the field. This will be of interest to current researchers in bioinorganic chemistry, as well as to senior undergraduate and novice postgraduate students entering the field.
