Herausgeber: Tonnesen, Hanne Hjorth

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Covering in vitro and in vivo aspects of drug photoreactivity, this book provides the background necessary for the planning of standardized photochemical stability studies as a part of drug development and formulation work. The second edition of a bestseller, it focuses on standardization of photostability testing of drug substances and products, in vitro photoreactivity screening of drugs, and various aspects of the formulation of photoreactive substances. With chapter authors drawn from an international panel of experts, the second edition has been completely revised and updated to emphasize the significance of information and knowledge on drug photoreactivity in a pharmaceutical context.
