Bentham Books announces the release of Eutectic Mixtures in Pharmaceuticals: Strategies for Enhancing Drug Solubility and Bioavailability, addressing one of pharmaceutical formulation's most persistent challenges poor aqueous solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
About the Book
This book offers a multidisciplinary look at Eutectic Mixtures (EMs) as a strategy for improving API solubility, dissolution and bioavailability. It covers the fundamental science of EMs, preparation methods, characterization techniques, computational approaches to solubility prediction and applications in drug delivery, alongside industrial perspectives connecting research fundamentals with practical feasibility.
Key Features
- Fundamentals of eutectic mixtures: physical, chemical, thermodynamic and stability properties
- Preparation methods (mechanical, solvent-assisted, fusion) and characterization tools (DSC, TGA, PXRD, FTIR, Raman)
- Solubility and bioavailability enhancement strategies, including drug-coformer selection
- Applications in oral, topical and transdermal drug delivery
- Computational prediction of EM behavior and solubility
- Experimental evaluation of drug release, toxicity and safety
Readership: Undergraduates, postgraduates, research scholars and professors/researchers in pharmaceutical sciences, medicinal chemistry, materials science and drug delivery research.
