Pharmaceutical Monographs, Volume 7: Unit Processes in Pharmacy provides a survey of the industrial processes used in the large-scale preparation of pharmaceuticals. This book examines the movement of fluids, the transfer of heat, mass transfer, and the properties of powers. Organized into two parts encompassing 14 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the analysis of the flow of fluids through a permeable bed of solids that is widely applied in filtration, leaching, and several other processes. This text then examines the transfer of heat from one fluid to another across a solid boundary. Other chapters consider the movement of relatively large units of gas, called eddies, from one region to another that causes mixing of the components of the gas. This book discusses as well the principle of filtration. The final chapter deals with the scale of segregation and the intensity of segregation. This book is a valuable resource for undergraduate students of pharmacy and allied subjects.
The seventh volume of Advances in Pharmaceutical Sciences heralds a welcome continuation of this well-respected series. Acknowledged experts provide comprehensive statements of current research and development in selected fields of pharmaceutical technology. This book will be of great value to those working in academia and the pharmaceutical industry.
The British Pharmacopoeia has provided official standards for the quality of substances, medicinal products and articles used in medicine since its first publication in 1864. It is used in over 100 countries and remains an essential global reference in pharmaceutical research and development and quality control. This book explores how these standards have been achieved through a comprehensive review of the history and development of the pharmacopoeias in the UK, from the early London, Edinburgh and Dublin national pharmacopoeias to the creation of the British Pharmacopoeia and its evolution over 150 years. Trade in medicinal substances and products has always been global, and the British Pha...
This title demonstrates how advanced formulation designs and delivery technologies can be used to improve drug efficacy and treatment outcomes in particular therapeutic categories or disease states. It discusses nanoparticle systems for cancer treatments, and also presents cutting edge immono-regulation agents for transplantation and the local targ
The Third Edition presents all pharmaceutical industry personnel and those in academia with critical updates on the recent advances in granulation technology and changes in FDA regulatory guidelines. Addressing precisely how these recent innovations and revisions affect unit operation of particle generation and granulation, this text assists the re
Oral lipid-based formulations are attracting considerable attention due to their capacity to facilitate gastrointestinal absorption and reduce or eliminate the effect of food on the absorption of poorly water-soluble, lipophilic drugs. Despite the obvious and demonstrated utility of these formulations for addressing a persistent and growing problem
The assessment of bioequivalence is an important process whereby the bioavailability of a generic drug product is compared with its brand-name counterpart. Generic pharmaceutical products must be approved as therapeutic equivalents to the brand name alternative in order to be interchangeable. The demonstration of bioequivalence is an important comp
Addressing the increased use of protein and peptide candidates as treatments for previously untreatable diseases, this comprehensive and progressive source provides the reader with a roadmap to an increased understanding of issues critical for successfully developing a protein or peptide therapeutic candidate. Proteins and Peptides is
