It has come to mean something very specific, namely the development of drug substances with large protein and polypeptide molecules. These substances can be used as drugs in their own right but may also be used to manipulate cellular DNA in order to produce a required molecule that is believed to have desirable properties in the treatment of a disease. Accordingly, the second edition of this popular text reflects that change of definition by including new material that explores the development of these protein-based therapeutic substances. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSee what's new in the Second Edition: \u003cli\u003eExpanded coverage of the formulation of proteins\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdditional information on proteins used as drug delivery systems\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDetailed discussion of interactions between proteins and phospholipids \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncreased information on proteomics and gene therapy\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExploration of pulmonary administration and oral delivery of proteins\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eA broad review of vaccines\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDiscussion of genetic engineering and genomics\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eChallenges and issues involved in the development and the production of a drug\u003c\/li\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45239828349079,"sku":"9780367392208","price":5697.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780367392208.webp?v=1769223640","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/pharmaceutical-biotechnology-9780367392208","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
