NMR Spectroscopy in Pharmaceutical Analysis
|
|
For almost a decade, quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) has been established as valuable tool in drug analysis. In all disciplines, i. e. drug identification, impurity profiling and assay, qNMR can be utilized.
Separation techniques such as high performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, super fluid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis techniques, govern the purity evaluation of drugs. However, these techniques are not always able to solve the analytical problems often resulting in insufficient methods. Nevertheless such methods find their way into international pharmacopoeias. Thus, the aim of the book is to describe the possibilities of qNMR in pharmaceutical analysis.
Beside the introduction to the physical fundamentals and techniques the principles of the application in drug analysis are described: quality evaluation of drugs, polymer characterization, natural products and corresponding reference compounds, metabolism, and solid phase NMR spectroscopy for the characterization drug substances, e.g. the water content, polymorphism, and drug formulations, e.g. tablets, powders. This part is accompanied by more special chapters dealing with representative examples. They give more detailed information by means of concrete examples. combines theory, techniques, and concrete applicationsall of which closely resemble the laboratory experience considers international pharmacopoeias, addressing the concern for licensing features the work of academics and researchers, appealing to a broad readership.

Handbook of Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Formulations: Semisolids Products
|
|
The fourth volume in the six-volume Handbook of Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Formulations, this book covers semi-solid drugs. It includes formulations of ointments, lotions, gels, and suppositories, from publicly available but widely dispersed information from FDA New Drug Applications (NDA), patent applications, and other sources of generic and proprietary formulations. Each entry begins with a fully validated scaleable manufacturing formula and a summary of manufacturing process. The book provides a detailed discussion on the difficulties encountered in manufacturing semi-solid drugs, the common elements of formulations. The section on regulatory and manufacturing guidance deals with such topics as changes to approved NDAs and aNDAs, post-approval changes to semisolid drugs, SUPAC for non-sterile semisolid dosage form equipment, stability testing of drugs substances and drug

Microbiological Assay for Pharmaceutical Analysis: A Rational Approach
|
|
A user-friendly guide for the evaluation of microbiological assays, Microbiological Assay for Pharmaceutical Analysis: A Rational Approach provides a lucid explanation of the sources of error in microbiological assay and helps analysts choose efficient assay designs that will minimize those sources of error. Beginning with a review of the theoretical basis for the quantitative aspects, the author discusses microbiological assay as a branch of pharmaceutical analysis and distinguishes it from biological assay in general. He draws attention to the microbiological aspects that may not be so obvious to the chemical analyst and to the analytical aspects that may not be so obvious to the microbiologist. The book contains detailed evaluations of assays that illustrate typical experimental designs and

Managing Pharmacy Practice: Principles, Strategies, and Systems
|
|
The myriad changes in health care and health care delivery have transformed the pharmacist's role within those systems. Reflecting these changes, Managing Pharmacy Practice: Principles, Strategies, and Systems delineates the managerial issues pharmacists face today and those that they will face in the future. Highlighting the growing impact of technology throughout pharmacy and healthcare, the book underlines the challenges of this rapidly evolving profession and explores strategies for success. Touching on basic management theory and thoroughly discussing systems theory, the text supplies the groundwork for analyzing managerial systems. This systems approach will allow the reader to understand the contextual relationships between seemingly disparate concepts. For example, the discussion of professionals and their role in society is juxtaposed with discussions of organizational designs and power. With contributions from leaders in fields as diverse as pharmacy, human resources, education, and management writing about their experiences, the book presents a broad overview of the complexities and intricacies inherent in managing systems in pharmacy.

Pharmaceutical Design And Development: A Molecular Biology Approach
|
|
This volume aims to introduce researchers in pharmaceutical and allied industries to the concepts and latest developments in the application of biotechnology recombinant DNA and monoclonal antibodies to drug development. The author puts biotechnology in perspective, introducing the basic concepts of cell and molecular biology and discussing both the application of protein drugs and the design of new molecular entities. The study examines the use of proteins and assay systems produced via biotechnology to the development of small-molecule drugs. A discussion of gene and somatic cell therapies is included, along with developments in diagnostic methods resulting from biotechnology. The text concludes by examining future prospects and likely developments in the field.
