Full Description
Novel Formulations and Future Trends, Volume Three in the Recent and Future Trends in Pharmaceutics series, explores aspects of pharmaceutics with an original approach focused on technology, novelties and future trends. It discusses the most important developments in drug delivery, including important and exciting areas such as mucosal, implantable, transdermal, gastroretentive, vaccine and targeted drug delivery systems. The field of pharmaceutics is highly dynamic and rapidly expanding day-by-day so it demands a variety of amplified efforts for designing and developing pharmaceutical processes and formulation strategies. This is an essential reference for researchers in academia and industry as well as advanced graduate students.
New technologies are also explored including 3D printing and computational pharmaceutics.
