Combinatorial Chemistry and Technologies: Methods and Applications

Stanislav Miertus, Giorgio Fassina9780824758370, 0824758374

Fassina (molecular biology, University of Bologna, Italy) and Miertus (chemistry, Slovak Technical University) offer a complete overview of the field, covering all of the methods used in the design, synthesis, and screening of molecular libraries. This second edition updates prior content and contains new chapters describing recent developments in combinatorial technologies applied to catalyst discovery and biotechnology. Economic and legal issues relevant to combinatorial chemistry and technology are also examined. The book will be valuable to technologists and researchers as an introductory survey on combinatorial chemistry and combinatorial technology.
