from the best authors in the field, with this updated edition
including sections on Pharmacotherapy of psychiatric disorders,

This book intends to be an updated compilation of the most
important buccal, gastric, intestinal, pulmonary, nasal, vaginal,
ocular, skin and blood-brain barrier in vitro models for predicting
the permeability of drugs. Concepts and Models for Drug
Permeability Studies focuses on different approaches and comprises
of various models. Each model describes the protocol of seeding and
conservation, the application for specific drugs, and takes into
account the maintenance of physiologic characteristics and
functionality of epithelium, from the simplest immortalized
cell-based monoculture to the most complex engineered-tissue
models. Chapters also discuss the equivalence between in vitro cell
and tissue models and in vivo conditions, highlighting how each
model may provisionally resemble a different drug absorption route.
