High-Throughput Mass Spectrometry in Drug Discovery
Apply mass spectrometry to every phase of new drug discovery with this cutting-edge guide
Mass spectrometry is a technique that identifies and characterizes compounds based on their mass — the fundamental molecular characteristic. It has become an invaluable analytical tool in various disciplines, industries, and research fields. It has become particularly central to new drug discovery and development, which broadly deploys mass spectrometry at every phase. The pharmaceutical industry has become one of the main drivers of technological development in mass spectrometry.
High-Throughput Mass Spectrometry in Drug Discovery offers a comprehensive introduction to mass spectrometry and its applications in pharmaceutical discovery. It covers the foundational principles and science of mass spectrometry before moving to specific experimental methods and their applications at various stages of drug discovery. Its thorough treatment and detailed guidance make it an invaluable tool for pharmaceutical research and development.
High-Throughput Mass Spectrometry in Drug Discovery readers will also find:
• Detailed analysis of techniques, including label-free screening, synthetic reaction optimization, and more
• An authorial team with extensive combined experience in research and industrial applications
• Technical strategies with the potential to accelerate quantitative bioanalysis in drug discovery
High-Throughput Mass Spectrometry in Drug Discovery is essential for analytical, bioanalytical, and medicinal chemists working in the pharmaceutical industry and for any researchers and graduate students interested in drug discovery and development.
