This book is a compilation of summarized analytical methods designed to
serve the needs of pharmacologists, toxicologists, and other allied

pharmaceuticals. The summaries are structured monographs on 511
different drug entities detailing 964 different analytical methods,
providing the reader with a thorough description of method validation.
These analytical methods include not only high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC), but also gas chromatography (GC), immunoassay,
electrophoresis, ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled
with UV (UPLC-UV) detection and mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). With
more detailed and complete summaries than sketchy and abbreviated
formats used in the other books, this book provides a thorough
description of method validation and results, as well as the operating
parameters.
