Summary

1. Medicinal Chemistry Laboratory Manual: Investigations in Biological and Pharmaceutical Chemistry responds to a critical need for material for directed laboratory investigations in biological and pharmaceutical chemistry. It supplies 55 experiments in 18 major subject areas, including carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins in biochemistry; tannins, balsams, and alkaloids in natural products areas; and analgesics, steroids, and anesthetics in pharmaceutical chemistry.-- Includes section introductions to basic concepts underlying the field addressed and a specific bibliography relating to each-- Demonstrates the relevancy of topics to the field of medicinal chemistry through experiments and research investigations provided-- Presents a range of wide range of experiments, none of which requires exotic materials.
