Key topics in Volume 1 include:

  • principles of drug absorption, chemical kinetics, and drug stability
  • pharmacokinetics
  • the effect of route of administration and distribution on drug action
  • in vivo imaging of dose forms: gamma scintigraphy, PET imaging NMR, MRI, etc.
  • powder technology
  • excipient design and characterization
  • preformulation
  • optimization techniques in pharmaceutical formulation and processing
  • disperse and surfactant systems
