Pharmaceutical Experimental Design And Interpretation

This complete revision of Understanding Experimental Design and Interpretation in Pharmaceutics provides a comprehensive and up-to-date guide for anyone involved in planning pharmaceutical experiments and analysing the results.After a brief discussion of the underlying statistical techniques, the major methods of experimental design and evaluation, such as multivariate analysis, principal components analysis and sequential analysis, are examined. A comprehensive review of factorial design, covering classical, partial and block designs, leads to a description of methods of optimization, including model-independent and model-dependent methods such as response surface methodology and multicriteria decision making. A separate chapter applies these methods to mixture designs which are particularly relevant to pharmaceutical formulations. Each chapter draws on real examples from the pharmaceutical industry making the book a practical aid for all pharmaceutical researchers.

Pharmacy Case Studies

Whilst most pharmacy undergraduate texts are subject specific, "Pharmacy Case Studies" encourages students to take an integral approach to pharmacy via a series of pharmacy cases. Knowledge gained within the individual areas of law and ethics, pharmaceutics, pharmacology and pathology are tested by each example, bringing together all areas taught on the degree course. Each chapter contains five case studies, starting with uncomplicated cases and increasing in complexity as they expand.
