Product Description: Biomolecular studies are the trial of Man to understand how Nature manages information at the molecular level. The understanding of molecular informa­ tion handling in nature is essential for the molecular optimization in chem­ istry, molecular biology, molecular pharmacology and therefore - as an ex­ ample - for the development of specifically acting drugs...read more

Product Description: Dense phase carbon dioxide (DPCD) is a non-thermal method for food and pharmaceutical processing that can ensure safe products with minimal nutrient loss and better preserved quality attributes. Its application is quite different than, for example, supercritical extraction with CO 2 where the typical solubility of materials in CO 2 is in the order of 1% and therefore requires large volumes of CO 2...read more

Product Description: This book is a structured approach to designing a product and its associated manufacturing process. It shows pharmaceutical engineers and scientists involved in product and process development how to utilize QbD practices and applications effectively while complying with government regulations...read more

In this concise and systematic book, a team of experts select the most important, cutting-edge technologies used in drug delivery systems. They take into account significant drugs, new technologies such as nanoparticles, and therapeutic applications. The chapters present step-by-step laboratory protocols following the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, offering readily reproducible results vital for pharmaceutical physicians and scientists.

Product Description: The growth of the pharmaceutical industry over the past decade is astounding, but the impact of this growth on statistics is somewhat confusing. While software has made analysis easier and more efficient, regulatory bodies now demand deeper and more complex analyses, and pharmacogenetic/genomic studies serve up an entirely new set of challenges...read more
