Membrane Electrodes in Drug-Substances Analysis discusses the analytical control of drugs using ion-selective membrane electrodes. This book is divided into three parts, comprised of 18 chapters organized according to the topics they cover. The first part covers the general aspects of membrane electrodes, which includes topics such as theoretical considerations and the basic characteristics of membrane electrodes. Part II deals with the general methods of analysis using membrane electrodes, and Part III tackles the determination of drug-substances. This book will be of great use to researchers and professionals engaged in drug research.
A one-of-a-kind book discussing drug-membrane sensors in pharmaceutical analysis Pharmaceutical Applications of Membrane Sensors is the first book to deal with the theory of drug-membrane sensors, as well as applications of such devices in pharmaceutical analysis. The book contains three main parts. The three major sections of the book cover the design and principles of membrane drug sensors, the use of membrane sensors in the analysis of pharmaceuticals, and various aspects of drug release monitoring by membrane sensors. Detailed analytical methods for more than 400 organic pharmaceuticals assayed by membrane sensor techniques are presented. Pharmaceutical Applications of Membrane Sensors will be a valuable reference for specialists in analytical and pharmaceutical chemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, medicine, pharmaceutical sciences, and pharmacology.

Contains current techniques for the assay or biochemical assay of biological fluids and pharmaceutical compounds."
TRAC: Trends in Analytical Chemistry, Volume 10 presents relevant topics in global analytical chemistry research. This book discusses the potential of flow injection analysis for water quality monitoring. Organized into 27 parts encompassing 67 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the amount of published information on analytical chemistry research. This text then examines the analytical technique in the electrophoretic separations in narrow bore tubes, which is capable of rapid, high-resolution separations of water-soluble components in small sample volumes. Other chapters consider the application of polynomial and B-spline interpolation to the description of cyclic voltammetric features. This book discusses as well the methods used to investigate the properties of ceramic high-transition-temperature superconductors. The final chapter deals with the importance of monitoring and protecting the environment based on measurement campaigns. This book is a valuable resource for analytical chemists, environmental chemists, and biochemists. Pharmacologists, scientists, students, researcher workers, and other practitioners will also find this book useful.
Ion-Selective Electrode Reviews, Volume 7 is a collection of papers that covers the applications of electrochemical sensors, along with the versatility of ion-selective electrodes. The coverage of the text includes solid contact in membrane ion-selective electrodes; immobilized enzyme probes for determining inhibitors; potentiometric titrations based on ion-pair formation; and application of ion-selective electrodes in soil science, kinetics, and kinetic analysis. The text will be of great use to chemists and chemical engineers.
This book deals with the principles and practices of electrochemical methods as applied to soil and water research, particularly those that can be carried out in the field. Beginning with the basis of potentiometric methods, including electrode potential, principles of potentiometric methods, reference electrodes, liquid-junction potential and characteristics of ion-selective electrodes, the author then proceeds to describe the properties and applications of various types of potentiometric electrodes, including glass, solid-state membrane, liquid-state membrane, oxidation-reduction and gas sensors. A special chapter devoted to commonly encountered problems will aid readers not familiar with potentiometric methods. Voltammetric methods, conductometric methods and electrochemical instruments are also discussed.
