Molecular Biopharmaceutics covers a complex and developing scientific area, comprehensively encapsulating the essentials of the interplay between the chemistry of drugk molecules and membrane transporters. It also aims to guide researchers in setting up experiments that may help in understanding the mechanisms and kinetics involved in transport-drug absorption and delivery. Molecular Biopharmaceutics considers the following aspects of understanding bioavailability by:
* physicochemical characterisation
* membrane transport
* biosimulation methods.
These issues are of increasing importance in drug development. Molecular Biopharmaceutics will be an invaluable resource for postgraduate pharmaceutical science students, biopharmaceutical scholars, scientists within academia and industrial pharmaceutical development.
