Description

General descriptionThis book highlights the critical concepts and issues involved in implementing combinatorial chemistry to create chemical libraries. It not only covers both the techniques and tools used in this field, but also the organizational and strategic questions faced by pharmaceutical managers. The authors apply combinatorial technologies to drug discovery and development and place co-evolving technologies and practices in a global framework. Included among the many topics are Library strategy and design; Solid-phase synthesis; Small molecular libraries; Automation, analytical, and computational methodology; Biological diversity; Strategies for screening combinatorial libraries; Combinatorial drug screening and development.
