With its focus on a completely novel class of pharmaceuticals, this book collates the hitherto scarce literature about DNA drug formulation keenly desired by biotechnologists, molecular biologists and pharmacists, as well as those working in the biotechnological and pharmaceutical industries.
As such, this volume presents a wide range of gene delivery systems needed for different therapeutic applications. It fills the gap between research and clinical trials and describes pharmaceutical fundamentals for the development of efficient DNA pharmaceuticals.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"It makes a valuable contribution to an important, topical and rapidly growing area of research and will be useful and of interest to students and professors, specialists and beginners in the field. I recommend it strongly, to libraries and individual researchers, in areas ranging all the way from biological chemistry to medicine." ChemMedChem
