Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced pharmaceutical chemistry plays a crucial role in the research, development and production of innovative medicines. Its fundamental pillars, such as analysis, synthesis and application, are essential to guarantee quality, i.e., their preparation under correct manufacturing standards, their efficacy in treating the disease they are used to cure or alleviate, their safety in terms of not producing adverse effects (undesirable or secondary) and their availability for use in treatments that improve the quality of life of patients. In this sense, pharmaceutical products developed for therapeutic use can be of synthetic origin or derived from plants and/or foods naturally.
This multidisciplinary field requires a deep knowledge of medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, drug formulation, drug administration, clinical trials, regulatory aspects and various scientific techniques to develop new and improved medicines that address the global challenge of treating various diseases.
Therefore, we invite authors and members of their research groups to submit an article tot his Special Issue of Applied Sciences, entitled “Advanced Pharmaceutical Chemistry: Analysis, Synthesis and Application”, with articles addressing active compounds of synthetic or plant, vegetable, and/or fruit origin, as well as their possible pharmacological potential (in vitro and in vivo) for treating health conditions.
