Riassunto

Offering step-by-step technical details, Liposome Technology, Third Edition, Three Volume Set provides comprehensive coverage of all aspects of liposome technology, including liposome preparation and analysis, entrapment of drugs and other materials into liposomes, and liposome interaction with the biological environment to be applied in the detection, therapy, or prevention of disease. The text offers critical discussions of the methodologies of each technology discussed so that readers can examine the benefits and limitations and compare it to other methods. This Third Edition features 55 chapters written by leading international experts. Because of the considerable progress in liposome related techniques and their application in therapy since the publication of the Second Edition in 1992, over half of the chapters are new to the edition, and the other chapters have been extensively updated. Liposome Technology, Third Edition, Three Volume Set is an ideal resource for pharmaceutical scientists, researchers, regulatory personnel, FDA personnel, and medicinal chemists working in this discipline.
