✦ Synopsis

"This revolutionary method enables organic and medicinal chemists to synthesize thousands or even millions of potentially interesting compounds in a single reaction sequence. Combined with current methods of high throughput analysis, combinatorial methods have almost completely replaced the traditional step-by-step synthesis of potential drugs." "Retaining its practice-oriented approach, this new edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect developments in parallel synthesis, while a new chapter on screening complements the overview of combinatorial strategy and synthetic methods. The result is a handbook tailored to the needs of the industry, with almost all the authors affiliated with leading pharmaceutical companies."--BOOK JACKET. Read more...

Millions of products, e.g. potential drugs, can be analyzed in one go, so that you know very fast if one or a few substances in your product mixture show biological activity. Read more...
