1st Edition

Pharmaceutical Applications of Membrane Sensors

By Vasile V. Cosofret Copyright 1992

    A one-of-a-kind book discussing drug-membrane sensors in pharmaceutical analysis

    Pharmaceutical Applications of Membrane Sensors is the first book to deal with the theory of drug-membrane sensors, as well as applications of such devices in pharmaceutical analysis. The book contains three main parts. The three major sections of the book cover the design and principles of membrane drug sensors, the use of membrane sensors in the analysis of pharmaceuticals, and various aspects of drug release monitoring by membrane sensors. Detailed analytical methods for more than 400 organic pharmaceuticals assayed by membrane sensor techniques are presented.

    Pharmaceutical Applications of Membrane Sensors will be a valuable reference for specialists in analytical and pharmaceutical chemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, medicine, pharmaceutical sciences, and pharmacology.
