Pharmaceutical Biotechnology in Drug Development summarizes key concepts and the latest developments of biotechnology applied to the development of biopharmaceuticals. Chapters present a comprehensive collection of introductory biotechnology technologies and their modern concepts and cover pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behavior of biopharmaceuticals and modification techniques of amino acids and nucleic acid. Other sections focus on topics such as gene therapy, immunological preparations and nanoparticles which are the major contributions of pharmaceutical biotechnology. Final chapters discuss emerging techniques in the field of pharmaceutical biotechnology to meet current patient and health care demand.
This book is an essential reference useful for pharmaceutical scientists, clinicians and academic researchers who want easy access to up-to-date practices of pharmaceutical biotechnology. Corporate researchers will also benefit from this book’s succinct and objective content structure.
