This cutting-edge reference clearly explains pharmaceutical
transport phenomena, demonstrating applications ranging from drug
or nutrient uptake into vesicle or cell suspensions, drug
dissolution and absorption across biological membranes, whole body
kinetics, and drug release from polymer reservoirs and matrices to
heat and mass transport in freeze-drying and hygroscopicity.
Focuses on practical applications of drug delivery from a physical
and mechanistic perspective, highlighting biological systems.
Written by more than 30 international authorities in the field,
Transport Processes in Pharmaceutical Systems
discusses the crucial relationship between the transport process
and thermodynamic factors
analyzes the dynamics of diffusion at liquid-liquid, liquid-solid,
and liquid-cultured cell interfaces
covers prodrug design for improving membrane transport
addresses the effects of external stimuli in altering some natural
and synthetic polymer matrices
examines properties of hydrogels, including synthesis, swelling
degree, swelling kinetics, permeability, biocompatibility, and
biodegradability
presents mass transfer of drugs and pharmacokinetics based on mass
balance descriptions
and more
Containing over 1000 references and more than 1100 equations,
drawings, photographs, micrographs, and tables, Transport Processes
in Pharmaceutical Systems is a must-read resource for research
pharmacists, pharmaceutical scientists and chemists, chemical
engineers, physical chemists, and upper-level undergraduate and
graduate students in these disciplines.
