Drug Delivery Systems
The field of drug development and therapeutics can be overwhelmingly encyclopedic and vast. In Drug Delivery Systems, Dr. Kewal Jain and a team of experts select the most important, cutting-edge technologies used in drug delivery systems taking 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.Concise and systematic, Drug Delivery Systems is a powerful reference tool for the hundreds of companies developing drug delivery technologies all around the world.
Methods in Enzymology, Volume 391: Liposomes, Part E
Liposomes are cellular structures made up of lipid molecules. Important as a cellular model in the study of basic biology, liposomes are also used in clinical applications such as drug delivery and virus studies. Liposomes Part E is a continuation of previous MIE Liposome volumes A, B, C and D.* One of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry since 1955
* Frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike
* Truly an essential publication for anyone in any field of the life science
Microencapsulation
Presenting practical approaches to complex formulation problems, this outstanding reference provides a thorough overview of particulate delivery systems-emphasizing specific preparation, characterization, and evaluation methods, as well as potential applications in areas such as pharmacy, medicine, cosmetology, and agriculture.Microencapsulation: Methods and Industrial Applications, Second Edition
Presenting breakthrough research pertinent to scientists in a wide range of disciplines-from medicine and biotechnology to cosmetics and pharmacy-this Second Edition provides practical approaches to complex formulation problems encountered in the development of particulate delivery systems at the micro- and nano-size level. Completely revised and expanded to represent the most up-to-date studies in the field, this guide covers advances in pulsatile delivery systems, injectable microparticulate systems, and site-specific delivery systems, as well as potential therapeutic applications of nanotechnology.Peptide-Based Drug Design: Methods and Protocols
Due to their high specificity and low toxicity profile, peptides have once again become central to the development of new drugs. In Peptide-Based Drug Design: Methods and Protocols, expert researchers provide a handbook which offers a selection of research and production tools suitable for transforming a promising protein fragment or stand-alone native peptide into a pharmaceutically acceptable composition. The volume delves into contemporary, cutting-edge subjects such as hit isolation and target validation, computer-aided design, sequence modifications to satisfy pharmacologists, in vivo stability and imaging, and the actual production of difficult sequences. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, chapters include readily reproducible, step-by-step laboratory protocols, lists of materials, and the Notes section, which highlights tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Comprehensive and up-to-date, Peptide-Based Drug Design: Methods and Protocols shows its subject to be an independent science on the rise, and provides scientists with a clear, concise guide for continuing this vital research
