A Textbook for Pharmacy Students and Pharmaceutical Chemists
Description
This introductory text highlights the most important aspects of a
wide range of techniques used in the control of the quality of
pharmaceuticals. Written with the needs of the student in mind, this
clear, practical guide includes self-testing sections with
arithmetical examples and tests to help students brush up on their
arithmetical skills in an applied context.
Key Features
*Covers all of the most important analysis techniques in one book.
*Concentrates on the most important points with just the right level
of detail.
*Summarizes the relevant theory but avoids becoming too esoteric.
*Features chapter summaries, key points and self-assessment boxes.
*Includes arithmetical calculations of results in the self-assessment
exercises.
