Environmental Biotechnology: Theory and Application

Environmental Biotechnology

Theory and Application

The application of biologically-engineered solutions to environmental problems has become far more readily acceptable and widely understood. However there remains some uncertainty amongst practitioners regarding how and where the microscopic, functional level fits into the macroscopic, practical applications. It is precisely this gap which the book sets out to fill.

Excipient Development for Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology and Drug Delivery Systems

Excipient Development for Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology and Drug Delivery Systems

Edited by Ashok Katdare & Mahesh V. Chaubal

To facilitate the development of novel drug delivery systems and biotechnology-oriented drugs, the need for new excipients to be developed and approved continues to increase. Excipient Development for Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology, and Drug Delivery Systems serves as a comprehensive source to improve understanding of excipients and forge new avenues for regulatory review and allowance to use. This book presents detailed, up-to-date information on various aspects of excipient development, testing, and technological considerations for their use. It addresses specific details such as historical perspective, preclinical testing, safety, and toxicology evaluation, as well as regulatory, quality, and utility aspects. The text also describes best practices for use of various functional excipients and extensive literature references for all topics

Industrial Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

Industrial Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

By Heinrich Klefenz

This volume focuses on pharmaceutical biotechnology as a key area of life sciences. The complete range of concepts, processes and technologies of biotechnology is applied in modern industrial pharmaceutical research, development and production. The results of genome sequencing and studies of biological-genetic function are combined with chemical, micro-electronic and microsystem technology to produce medical devices and diagnostic biochips. A multitude of biologically active molecules is expanded by additional novel structures created with newly arranged gene clusters and bio-catalytic chemical processes.
New organisational structures in the co-operation of institutes, companies and networks enable faster knowledge and product development and immediate application of the results of research and process development.
This book is the ideal source of information for scientists and engineers in research and development, for decision-makers in biotech, pharma and chemical corporations, as well as for research institutes, but also for founders of biotech companies and people working for venture capital corporations.

Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, Second Edition

Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, Second Edition

Since the publication of the first edition of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology over a decade ago, a not-so-subtle shift in the meaning of the term “biotechnology” has occurred. It has come to mean something very specific, namely the development of drug substances with large protein and polypeptide molecules. These substances can be used as drugs in their own right but may also be used to manipulate cellular DNA in order to produce a required molecule that is believed to have desirable properties in the treatment of a disease. Accordingly, the second edition of this popular text reflects that change of definition by including new material that explores the development of these protein-based therapeutic substances. See what’s new in the Second Edition: · Expanded coverage of the formulation of proteins · Additional information on proteins used as drug delivery systems · Detailed discussion of interactions between proteins and phospholipids · Increased information on proteomics and gene therapy · Exploration of pulmonary administration and oral delivery of proteins · A broad review of vaccines · Discussion of genetic engineering and genomics · Challenges and issues involved in the development and the production of a drug.

New Vaccine Development: Establishing Priorities

New Vaccine Development: Establishing Priorities (Volume 1)

Common diseases cost the developing world an enormous amount in terms of human life, health, and productivity, as well as lost economic potential. New and effective vaccines could not only improve the quality of life for millions of residents in developing countries, they could also contribute substantially to further economic development. Using data from the World Health Organization and other international agencies, this book analyzes disease burdens, pathogen descriptions, geographic distribution of diseases, probable vaccine target populations, alternative control measures and treatments, and future prospects for vaccine development. New Vaccine Development provides valuable insight into immunological and international health policy priorities.

Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

Conceiving an up-to-date pharmaceutical biotechnology textbook that trains next-generation pharmacy students, as well as updating pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists … is a formidable challenge, and one which the editors … have accomplished to a high standard … . … [Many chapters] contain industrial case-studies of blockbuster drugs, thus giving this textbook an industrial scope that is difficult to find elsewhere. All the chapters are easy to read and well illustrated to aid understanding of the interdisciplinary content. Each chapter is authored by experts in the field and contains a good introductory section and an in-depth discussion of each topic.

The field of pharmaceutical biotechnology is a rapidly evolving subject. A whole new arsenal of protein pharmaceuticals is being produced by recombinant techniques for a spectrum of serious diseases such as cancer, viral infections, cardiovascular and hereditary disorders. In addition, we are confronted with new technologies such as polymerase chain reactions, combinatorial chemistry and gene therapy.

Completely revised and updated, this introductory textbook provides extensive coverage of both the basic science and the applications of biotechnology-produced pharmaceuticals, with special emphasis on their clinical use.
