	Z703605	Oligonucleotide Synthesis: Methods and Applications	A collection of powerful techniques for oligonucleotide synthesis and for use of modified oligonucleotides in biotechnology. Among the protocol highlights are a novel two-step process that yields a high purity, less costly, DNA, the synthesis of phosphorothioates using new sulfur transfer agents, the synthesis of LNA, peptide conjugation methods to improve cellular delivery and cell-specific targeting, and triple helix formation. The applications include using molecular beacons to monitor the PCR amplification process, nuclease footprinting to study the sequence-selective binding of small molecules of DNA, nucleic acid libraries, and the use of small interference RNA (siRNA) as an inhibitor of gene expression.
	Z703656	Optimization in Drug Discovery: In Vitro Methods	Researchers and experts from leading universities and major pharmaceutical companies systematically describe cutting-edge experimental protocols for the early in vitro evaluation of new chemical entities (NCE). These readily reproducible assays measure such critical parameters as physicochemical properties, adsorption, plasma binding, metabolism, drug interactions, and toxicity. By uncovering early in the discovery stage the defects that can eliminate candidate drugs from preclinical and clinical development, these techniques can save millions of dollars in time and effort
	Z369330	Organic Chemistry	A modern, student-oriented introduction to organic structures, reactions and mechanisms. It maintains a modern approach in three ways: it extends organic reaction mechanisms into biological systems, it introduces spectroscopy early and integrates it throughout subsequent chapters, and it consistently reinforces stereochemical ideas throughout the text.
	Z552291	Organic Chemistry Principles and Industrial Practice	Nylon, Plexiglas, epoxy resin, and Elmer’s glue; dynamite, rubber tires, and spandex. These are a few among the multitude of industrial products produced using the principles of organic chemistry, principles that are often taught to students without reference to the commercial and practical importance of the subject. Written for students, and also giving much information that could be used to enhance teaching of the subject, the book, presented in ten concise chapters, combines important industrial processes with the principles of organic chemistry.
	Z703257	Organic Chemistry of Biological Pathways	This text provides a contemporary and authoritative treatment of the molecular logic of the chemistry of life. The authors have chosen to organize the text not by organic reaction type but by metabolic pathway. Doing so allows them to explain not only the chemistry of any given step but also the molecular logic of the entire pathway. Readers thus gain a deeper understanding of how and why the organic molecules of life undergo their sequential transformations and interconversions. To integrate the information from earlier chapters, as well as tie in traditional modes of organic reaction classification, the authors conclude with a summary chapter of the most common reaction types encountered in metabolism.
	Z702390	Organic Chemistry of Drug Design and Drug Action, 2nd ed.

This book represents a new approach based on physical organic chemical principles and reaction mechanisms that rationalize drug action and allow the reader to extrapolate to many related classes of drug molecules. The second edition reflects the significant changes in the drug industry over the past decade, and now includes color illustrations, chapter problems, and other elements that make concepts easier to understand.

Materials are organized by chemical class, and syntheses are taken back to available starting materials. Discusses disease state, rational for method of drug therapy, biological activities of each compound and preparation. Coverage also includes those generic pharmaceutical compounds not accorded clinical status. A glossary defines biological terms.
	Z411612	Organic Chemistry of Drug Synthesis Volume 6	This series is a guide to virtually all syntheses used in the preparation of compounds given generic names.

This well-received series meets the needs of practitioners in the field who seek a quick overview of the synthetic routes that have been used to access specific classes of therapeutic agents. While most books on medicinal chemistry are organized on the basis of therapeutic or biochemical classes, materials in this series are arranged and discussed in terms of chemical structure. Thus, the preparation and detailed organic chemistry of the classes are presented in a unified way. Only drugs that have been granted a U.S. Adopted Name are included in this series.

	Z271454	Oxford Chemistry Primers No. 30: Process Development: Fine Chemicals From Grams to Kilograms	Process development bridges the gap between the laboratory synthesis of an organic compound and its industrial manufacture on a large scale. This concise and readable text uses real examples and case histories from ICI/Zeneca Pharmaceuticals to show the problems which may be encountered in scaling up chemical synthesis, and the ways these problems may be overcome. It shows how it is possible to synthesize multi-kilogram quantities of a new organic compound which has been made in the laboratory only in the milligram scale. A wide range of aliphatic, aromatic, and heterocyclic compounds is covered. This book will be invaluable both to the research chemist involved in the development phase of novel compounds, and the advanced undergraduate interested in the fine chemicals industry.
	Z307939	Oxford Chemistry Primers No. 37: Introduction to Quantum Theory and Atomic Structure	This book illuminates the basic concepts of quantum chemistry, and emphasizes atomic structure but not molecular applications. The author starts with a survey of the basic ideas and problems of wave/particle duality, the nature of wave function, and its statistical interpretation. He then discusses some important applications of Schrodinger's equation to chemically relevant situations, and probes the structure of the hydrogen atom, multiple-electron atoms and the periodic table of elements. The emphasis throughout is on the physical concepts and their concrete application.
	Z307971	Oxford Chemistry Primers No. 41: Electrode Potentials	Offering a comprehensive introduction to equilibrium electrochemistry, this primer deals with electrode potentials and their applications. It builds on a knowledge of elementary thermodynamics, informs the reader of the origin of electrode potentials, and shows how these are used to deduce a wealth of chemically important information such as equilibrium constants, free energy, enthalpy and entropy changes of chemical reactions, activity coefficients, and the selective sensing of ions. The emphasis throughout is on understanding the foundations of this discipline and how it may be used to study problems of chemical interest. The authors have minimized the mathematical aspects of the subject without any sacrifices in cla
	Z307998	Oxford Chemistry Primers No. 42: Two-phase flow & heat transfer	This concise and heavily illustrated book is exclusively concerned with gas-liquid two-phase flows. The first part deals with adiabatic flows, that is flows without the addition or removal of heat. Topics include flow pattern maps and homogenous flow. The second part covers heat-transfer in two-phase flows: boiling and condensation. It is concerned with issues like pressure drop flow, flooding, the drift flux model, and nucleation. The various types of heat transfer are identified and methods to calculate them are provided. Two-phase flow and heat transfer processes are commonly encountered in heat exchanges (distillation and condensation) and in pipelines. The book is intended for readers interested in chemical and mechanical engineering
	Z402230	Oxford Chemistry Primers No. 50: Heat Transfer	This primer follows a classical approach to the study of heat transfer with main chapters on conduction, forced convection, natural convection and radiation. Practical problems, however, do not normally divide neatly into purely conduction problems, purely forced convection and so on, although texts often assume this. To overcome this barrier, the author demonstrates in examples and problems that more than one aspect of heat transfer may be needed to solve a single practical problem. The book covers the essential material of a text twice its length, making it easier for the reader to find and understand key principles. It will be of particular interest to undergraduate students in engineering, especially in mechanical and chemical engineering, and to professional engineers working on heat transfer.
	O8006	Oxford Handbook of Nucleic Acid Structure	A comprehensive reference on all aspects of nucleic acid structure, with particular emphasis on results from x-ray crystallography and NMR studies.
