Bilirubin: Jekyll and Hyde Pigment of Life
Lightner, David A.
Bilirubin: Jekyll and Hyde Pigment of Life Pursuit of Its Structure Through Two World Wars to the New Millenium / [electronic resource] : by David A. Lightner. - XVI, 798 p. 17 illus. in color. online resource. - Progress in the Chemistry of Organic Natural Products, 98 2191-7043 ; . - Progress in the Chemistry of Organic Natural Products, 98 .
Early scientific investigations -- Advent of the Bilirubin structure proof -- A modern proof of Bilirubin structure emerges -- Preparing the way to the constitutional structure of Bilirubin -- The status of Bilirubin in 1930 -- Evolution of the constitutional and conformational structure of Bilirubin -- Analysis of Bilirubin in three dimensions -- Understanding and translating Bilirubin structure -- Bilirubin -- Quod erat faciendum -- Bibliography -- Translations.
The book covers the totality of bilirubin (and heme, from which bilirubin is derived biogenetically), the structural relationship of bilirubin to its solution properties and metabolism, and to phototherapy for the jaundiced newborn - a common medical procedure used nowadays for lowering serum bilirubin, which is neurotoxic.
