内容説明

Researchers in new biology, clinical pharmacologists, physicians, and administrators have bundled their knowledge to produce this enlightening book, covering a broad range of subjects, contributing to helping new biology, through biotechnology, achieve its potential of improving the health of all people everywhere. First, the book takes a general look at biotechnology as a source of drugs. Next is discussed the disposition and pharmacokinetics of peptides and proteins since these differ from the disposition and kinetics of small organic molecules, the traditional types of drugs. Assessing the safety of biotechnology products, and the safety assessment of small organic molecules is also a topic covered by the book, as well as an overview of some of the ways the products of the new biology will have an impact, financially and otherwise, on society.
