Description

Physico-Chemical Aspects of Dosage Forms and Biopharmaceutics: Recent and Future Trends in Pharmaceutics, Volume Two explores aspects of pharmaceutics with an original approach that focuses on technology, novelties and future trends. The field of pharmaceutics is highly dynamic and rapidly expanding day-by-day, so it demands a variety of amplified efforts for designing and developing pharmaceutical processes and formulation strategies. Readers will find practical information for conducting research in pharmaceutics that is ideal for researchers in academia and industry as well as advanced graduate students in pharmaceutics.

In addition, the book discusses the most recent developments in biopharmaceutics, including important and exciting areas such as solubility of drugs, pharmaceutical granulation, routes of drug administration, drug absorption, bioavailability and bioequivalence.
