A Textbook of Microbiology
TLDR
This book is a text-book on general microbiology, but more than half this book is devoted to the medical aspects of the subject, little space being assigned to fermentation, soil microbiology and nitrification, micro-organisms in industry, and the like.Abstract:

Free radicals and the etiology of colon cancer
TL;DR: Intracolonic free radical formation may explain the high incidence of cancer in the colon and rectum, compared to other regions of the GI tract, as well as the observed correlations of a higher incidence of colon cancer with red meat in the diet, which increases stool iron, and with excessive fat in the diets, which may increase the fecal content of procarcinogens and bile pigments.
