Finding detailed information on the analysis of drug-related compounds is challenging at best. This latest edition is an extensive six-volume set that contains over 6500 spectra on more that 1750 illicit and prescription drugs. It presents data on the six most popular analytical techniques used today: ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry, mass spectrometry (MS), gas chromatography (GC), and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). This edition also presents the latest analytical techniques of FT-Ramen Spectra. Drugs are alphabetized and a combined index permits easy reference. Catalog no. 1974, ISBN: 978-0-8493-1974-7 2006, 8-1/2 x 11, 4688 pp. Suggested Price: $1295.00 / £695.00

Textbook

Offering a broad range of information, Medication Treatments for Nicotine Dependence is the first book of its kind in the field of medications for tobacco treatment. It assembles contributions from some of the leading basic and clinical scientists in the nicotine and tobacco dependence research community and comprehensively reviews currently available and novel medication approaches to treatment of nicotine dependence. This volume explores the basic pharmacology and physiology of nicotine and nicotinic receptors, examines first-line approved medications for nicotine, discusses second-line medications, and addresses special topics such as the combination of medications with behavioral treatments. Catalog no. 3779, ISBN: 978-0-8493-3779-6 2007, 6-1/8 x 9-1/4, 327 pp. Suggested Price: $154.95 / £86.00

Presenting general concepts and specific explanations, the third edition of Introduction to Pharmacology provides updated information on a range of subjects related to pharmacology. The text features a new chapter on smooth muscle pharmacology that covers gastrointestinal and pulmonary pharmacology. Additional new topics include nutraceuticals, HIV therapy, humoral medicine, diabetes, the toxicity of vitamin E, the role of biodiversity in drug development, glucocorticoid signaling, cytokines as therapeutics and targets, ligand-selective receptor confirmations, pharmacogenetics, and much more. Self-study questions are also provided at the end of each chapter for students.

Among the various approaches considered, nanotechnology offers the best promise for the targeted delivery of drugs and genes to a tumor site and for alleviating side effects of chemotherapeutic agents. Encouraging communication between clinical investigators and nanoscientists, Nanotechnology for Cancer Therapy focuses specifically on effective and promising nanoscience and nanotechnology strategies for imaging and treating cancer. Renowned industrial and academic researchers describe the advantages of nanoparticles as sensing, delivery, image enhancement agents for cancer treatments, and they also explore various types of useful nanoparticles such as polymeric nanoparticles and dendrimers.
