Exploring the analysis of pharmaceuticals, including polymorphic forms, from synthesis through formulation and after administration, the Handbook of Pharmaceutical Analysis discusses:

• current regulatory requirements in pharmaceutical product development and pharmaceutical testing
• modern methods of drug separation and novel procedures such as capillary electrophoresis for chromatographic separation of molecules
• drug formulation analysis using vibrational and magnetic resonance spectroscopy
• identification of drug metabolites and decomposition products using such techniques as mass spectrometry
• theory and instrumentation

With nearly 2,000 references and more than 300 tables, equations, drawings, and photographs, the Handbook of Pharmaceutical Analysis is an invaluable source for analytical, bioanalytical, pharmaceutical, organic, clinical, medicinal, physical, quality control, and process chemists and biochemists; pharmaceutical scientists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
