Contributor(s): Dimmock, J. R.
Publisher: New Delhi New Age 1997Edition: 1st.Description: 214, 21.5*13.9 Pages | Binding - Paperback |.ISBN: 978-81-224-0943-1.Subject(s): PHARMACEUTICAL CHEMISTRYDDC classification: 615.19 Online resources: Click here to access online Summary: The book entitled, An Introduction to Drug Design aims to optimize the discovery of drugs at a low cost and on occasions to change their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodyanamic properties. The introductory chapter which forms the basis of drug discovery is followed by the present-day thinking regarding the best approaches to drug discovery are considered. Similarly, there have been major advances in the employment of computers in structure-activity analysis, and a discussion of the state of the art in this area is also included. The chapter on QSAR highlights the role of physico-chemical parameters in predicting the future course of drug discovery with rational drug design. The role of enzymes in drug action is well established, and a chapter on design of enzyme inhibitors is well documented. In addition, the increased understanding of the design and utilisation of prodrugs has led to a discussion of the relevant issues in this text. Thus the book will fill the need of a text for designing new drugs and the principles of new drug discovery.
