HPLC Methods for Pharmaceutical Analysis

Product Description This handy reference tool aims to save analysts time, cost and effort by effectively completing the first phase of research in analytical method development. It provides a readily accessible source, in both print and electronic formats, of abstracts and citations for the most significant literature on HPLC techniques for pharmaceutical evaluation of the 158 most frequently prescribed pharmaceutical compounds. Each drug covered includes a number of detailed procedures, enabling analysts to replicate the technique. Annotated references are also provided so the procedures most suitable for their needs can quickly be determined. From the Back Cover Lets you target the specific information you need quickly and easily --so you can stay in the lab and out of the library. This invaluable database --available in print and electronic form --gives you fast, hands-on access to the most significant literature available on HPLC for the analysis of over 150 of the most frequently prescribed pharmaceutical compounds. Combining full descriptions of procedures with specially annotated references, HPLC Methods for Pharmaceutical Analysis helps you to identify the techniques that are relevant to your individual project needs --eliminating hours of tedious, time-consuming library research. Analytical chemists and researchers will find a battery of useful features that make this practical new resource a welcome addition to their reference library: Techniques for each compound are described in detail --enabling replication of a procedure without reference to the original publication * Detailed procedures for each drug are listed together --making it easy to combine features of different methods into a customized approach * Drug assay methods are provided for drugs in biological fluids such as blood or urine, as well as for bulk and formulated drugs * Other key information includes chemical structures, molecular weights and formulas, CAS Registry Numbers, and cross-references to The Merck Index and Chemistry of Drug Synthesis The electronic version, available on CD-ROM, allows you to search the entire database by compound, matrix, HPLC variables, and author.
