About this book
This book examines the role of computer-assisted techniques for discovering, designing, optimizing and manufacturing new, effective, and safe pharmaceutical formulations and drug delivery systems. The book discusses computational approaches, statistical modeling and molecular modeling for the development and safe delivery of drugs in humans. The application of concepts of QbD (Quality by Design), DoE (Design of Experiments), artificial intelligence and in silico pharmacokinetic assessment/simulation have been made a lot easier with the help of commercial software and expert systems. This title provides in-depth knowledge of such useful software with illustrations from the latest researches. The book also fills in the gap between pharmaceutics and molecular modeling at micro, meso and maro scale by covering topics such as advancements in computer-aided Drug Design (CADD), drug-polymer interactions in drug delivery systems, molecular modeling of nanoparticles and pharmaceutics/bioinformatics.
This book provides abundant applications of computers in formulation designing and characterization are provided as examples, case studies and illustrations. Short reviews of software, databases and expert systems have also been added to culminate the interest of readers for novel applications in formulation development and drug delivery.
Computer-aided pharmaceutics and drug delivery is an authoritative reference source for all the latest scholarly update on emerging developments in computed assisted techniques for drug designing and development. The book is ideally designed for pharmacists, medical practitioners, students and researchers.
