Kleemann & Engels - Encyclopedia of Pharmaceutical Substances 4th Edition 


Description 
Pharmaceutical Substances is designed to be a complete reference guide to every pharmaceutical compound of significance. It provides a compendium of some 2300 active pharmaceutical ingredients (API's) of interest to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Pharmaceutical Substances is an invaluable resource for anybody involved in the design, discovery, development, and evaluation of drugs.

The Concept 
Pharmaceutical Substances was developed by Axel Kleemann and Jürgen Engel, as a solution to the problems they encountered when creating their own bibliography for laboratory research. As a result these two great research chemists have brought together items of information that, in their experience, are used day-in-day-out by pharmaceutical chemists. Together with their co-authors, Bernhard Kutscher and Dietmar Reichert they have created an indispensable tool for researchers. 

Pharmaceutical Substances is a first point of reference for any person wishing to screen references to drugs before turning to more detailed primary literature, such as the original patent application or the original research paper. Extensive indexing and cross linking of references provides the reader with a fast and easy way to compare pharmaceutical ingredients with similar characteristics. 

Clear and Detailed Definitions 
The description of each compound includes: 

* Chemical structure 
* Graphical representation of synthetic route including intermediates 
* Nomenclature: INN standard, trivial names, synonyms, CAS number 
* ATC codes 
* Medical applications/Therapeutic category
