Metal coordination compounds: Models for biological and biochemical systems and their potential analytical applications

CHANAN SINGH, GYAN P SRIVASTAVA

Abstract


In  this  review,  an  attempt is made  to  present  comprehensively revera1  new  and interesting properties of analyzed biological  and  cytochemical  significance  of  metal  coordination  comoounds  with  a  particular stress towares their  fundamental  and/or  practical  implicalions.  With  the  exploration  of newer aspects of metal coordination compounds  as  models  of  positively-charged  biomolecules, many  a  new  area of research pertaining to inorganic, physical and analytical biochemistry has  been  opened  up  and  as  a  result  new  information  has emerged  on various aspects of bile salts, chelators, dyes, drugs, iorganic iso-and  hetero-polyacids,  biopolymers etc. This review is supported with  114  references.
