Bioanalytical Approaches for Drugs, Including Anti-asthmatics and Metabolites gives a state-of-the-art account of the subject and focuses on assaying blood and other biological samples, especially drugs which are given in low dosage or which yield metabolites that need subtle investigation. It covers advances in HPLC, GC, CE, MS, electrochemical and other detectors, NMR, and automated sample handling, as well as diverse drugs. The book also looks at problems such as analyte lability, stereoselectivity and interferants. It will be essential reading for researchers involved in analytical, medicinal, pharmaceutical and bio-organic chemistry.
