Bioanalysis of Pharmaceuticals: Sample Preparation, Separation Techniques and Mass Spectrometry by van van Steen Honore Hansen and Stig Pedersen-Bjergaard is an English-language printed textbook. This reference work addresses the bioanalysis of pharmaceuticals with special attention to separation techniques and mass spectrometry. The book is intended for professionals and students working in pharmaceutical analysis and the life sciences.
This textbook describes the chemical properties of pharmaceuticals, various biological samples, and their preparation for analysis. The focus is on separation techniques and mass spectrometry for the quantitative determination of low- and high-molecular-weight pharmaceutical substances in biological fluids. In addition, practical applications and calculations are discussed, so that users can convert the obtained data into actual concentrations.
Bioanalysis of Pharmaceuticals is thematically aligned with fields such as Pharmacology and Biochemistry and is suitable for researchers and technicians in pharmaceutical research, hospital laboratories, and university programs.
