Breakthroughs in combinatorial chemistry and molecular biology, as
well as an overall industry trend toward accelerated development,
mean the rate of sample generation now far exceeds the rate of
sample analysis in the pursuit of producing new and better
pharmaceuticals. LC/MS is an analytical tool that helps the
researcher identify the most promising sample early in the
selection process, effectively creating a shortcut to finding new
drugs. This book is the first to describe LC/MS applications within
the context of drug development, including the discovery,
preclinical, clinical, and manufacturing phases.
In addition to the thorough technical analysis of this tool,
LC/MS Applications in Drug Development provides
perspective on the significant changes in strategies for
pharmaceutical analysis. A process overview of drug development
from an analytical point of view is provided along with essential
data required to successfully bring a drug to market. The
incorporation of LC/MS is illustrated from target to product.
Chapters pertaining to the discovery process itself include:
* Proteomics
* Glycoprotein Mapping
* Natural Products Dereplication
* Lead Identification Screening
* Open-Access LC/MS
* In Vitro Drug Screening
Written for both the analytical chemist who uses LC/MS
applications and the pharmaceutical scientist who works with the
drugs they produce, LC/MS Applications in Drug
Development is the premier reference on the subject.
