Principles and Practice of Bioanalysis, Second Edition provides an updated guide to the techniques currently used in developing and running ultra-trace analyses for drugs, metabolites and other substances. Extensively revised, this volume reflects the dynamic growth in methodologies that has occurred over the past five years. Experts in the field offer a logical path through the problems of small molecule bioanalysis, enabling researchers to choose the appropriate methods of analysis across a number of fields, including the agrochemical and pharmaceutical industries. Scientists and graduate students in biology, biochemistry, and chemistry will also find this to be a valuable reference.
This book provides the scientific basis necessary for understanding, formulating, and testing surfactant-based personal care products, cosmetics, and cosmeceuticals. The new edition re-examines the function of emulsions, microemulsions, micelles, and nanostructures in formulation and delivery. It presents the latest noninvasive in vivo and in vitro methods for verifying product benefit claims, optimal formulation strategies using specific surfactant raw materials for enhancing pigmented products, and ways to assess the effectiveness of UV sunscreens and self-tanners. Coverage includes surfactant solutions, cleanser/conditioner systems, pigment dispersions, and finished products.

Current research suggests that neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, and Creutzfeldt-Jacob’s may be linked to disorders in protein shape referred to as “protein misfolding.” Continued study in this area could lead to promising advances in future treatment of these diseases. This groundbreaking text describes the latest findings regarding protein misfolding in the context of it being a marker, and perhaps a cause, in neurodegenerative diseases. Comprehensive coverage includes the diverse biochemical targets/markers for each disease, the currently limited success of drug therapies, and the cutting-edge research that could lead to potentially more promising treatments.
Thin Layer Chromatography in Chiral Separations and Analysis is the first book to focus solely on the theory, capabilities, and applications of TLC for direct and indirect enantioseparations. The first part of the book examines the fundamental principles of chirality and TLC. It describes the necessary materials, laboratory equipment, procedures, and strategies for the separation, quantification, isolation, and analysis of chiral compounds. Emphasizing pharmaceutical applications, the second part evaluates the real-world enantioseparations and densitometric analyses. Topics include chiral separation mechanisms, analyzing chiral purity, chiral stationary phases, and chiral modifiers of mobile phases.
