Textbook of Industrial Pharmacy is a pioneering effort that aims to bring together the three main specialties of pharmaceutical technology—drug delivery systems and industrial pharmacy, cosmetic technology and herbal drugs—in one book. With separate sections on these branches, this book provides detailed information about current techniques, as well as the concepts and principles on which they are based.
Targeted at final year B Pharm and first year M Pharm students, this book includes many step-by-step procedures, illustrations, and examples relating to drug delivery systems, optimisation and validation of pharmaceuticals, herbal drugs and products, cosmetics and cosmeceuticals. In addition, key points and self-assessment questions have been included at the end of every chapter.
