This new edition updates the original coverage with the latest version of Torque from GarageGames, and provides the very best tools available to the Indie game...
This book focuses on sterilizing grade filters in the biopharmaceutical industry, emphasizing practical applications of universal and dependable operational protocols, integrity testing, and troubleshooting to streamline the production and preparation of pharmaceuticals.
Addresses the complexities of globalizing redundancy in...
A groundbreaking guide devoted entirely to sample preparations
The importance of accurate sample preparation techniques cannot be overstated. Meticulous sample preparation is essential. Often overlooked, it is the midway poi nt where the analytes from the sample matrix are transformed so they are suitable for analysis. Even the...
Bioinformatics is an emerging field in which statistical and computational techniques
are used extensively to analyze and interpret biological data obtained
from high-throughput genomic technologies. Genomic technologies allow us
to monitor thousands of biological processes going on inside living organisms
in one snapshot, and are...
Drug development is far from a straightforward endeavor. It starts with the identification
of a pharmaceutically promising substance, the potential of which is further
investigated in near-exhausting physiological analyses (Chapter 1). If it is found
effective, this does not necessarily mean that we know all the molecular...
This book offers concise and unbiased presentations by synthetic and analytical chemists who have been involved in creating and moving the field of combinatorial chemistry into the academic and industrial mainstream. Since the synthetic method often dictates the appropriate types of analysis, each chapter or section begins with a description...
With the growing awareness of drug-induced diseases in the last few decades, the trend of phar
maceutical research had shifted to drug targeting. The research community seems to be fascinated
with idea of delivering drugs at an optimal rate to their exact site of action. Once considered wishful
thinking, nanotechnology has made this...
Covers important name reactions relevant to heterocyclic chemistry
The field of heterocyclic chemistry has long presented a special challenge for chemists. Because of the enormous amount and variety of information, it is often a difficult topic to cover for undergraduate and graduate chemistry students, even in simplified...
Mike Knight, an executive in a semiconductor firm, learns that his eight-year-old son Tim has a rare form of brain cancer. Tim's best hope for long-term survival is a drug called Supragrel. Unfortunately, Supragrel is still in early clinical trials and may reach the market too late. Mike makes the agonizing decision to quit his job and go to...
Psychiatry today is a barren tundra, writes medical historian Edward Shorter, where drugs that don't work are used to treat diseases that don't exist. In this provocative volume, Shorter illuminates this dismal landscape, in a revealing account of why psychiatry is "losing ground" in the struggle to treat depression.
Together, the nano explosion and the genomic revolution are ushering in a new frontier in drug delivery. In recent years we’ve seen how polymers can play a crucial role in controlling the rate of drug release, enhancing solubility and uptake, and limiting degradation and toxicity. In the very near future, they may well be used to...
Progress in biology is dependent on the ability to observe, measure, and model the behavior of organisms at multiple levels of abstraction, from the microscopic to the macroscopic. There has been a tremendous growth recently in the techniques to probe the structure and workings of cellular and organ-level mechanisms. Significant advances have...
