Chemistry and Biological Activities of Ivermectin (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Ali, Rashid; Shahid-Ul-Islam

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The main intention of this volume is to focus on the chemistry and biological activities. The chapters have been arranged in a systematic manner, starting from the historical background and synthesis of IVM to the pharmacological and environmental aspects, followed by diverse potential applications. Although the usage of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 remains investigational and controversial, one of the chapters is dedicated to its use.
