"Principles of Anatomy and Physiology" by Gerard J. Tortora, Bryan H. Derrickson - Ebook

The new edition of Principles of Anatomy and Physiology maintains the superb balance between structure and function. It continues to emphasize the correlations between normal physiology and pathophysiology, normal anatomy and pathology, and homeostasis and homeostatic imbalances. The simple redesign of the twelfth edition allows the illustrations to be the focal point on each page. Each page is carefully laid out to place related text, figures, and tables near one another, minimizing the need for page turning while reading a topic.

Merck Manual 17ed (Centennial Edition)

This is serious stuff. The most widely used medical text in the world and the hypochondriac's bible, the Merck has the lowdown on the vast expanse of human diseases, disorders and injuries, as well as their symptoms and recommended therapy. It's intended for physicians and medical students, but though the type is tiny and the language technical, the Merck's a valuable volume for anyone with more than a passing interest in bodily ills.

Spectrometric Identification Of Organic Compounds

This book is characterized by its problem-solving approach with extensive reference charts and tables. First published in 1962, this was the first book on the identification of organic compounds using spectroscopy. Now considered a classic, it can be found on the shelf of every Organic Chemist. The key strength of this text is the extensive set of real-data problems in Chapters 8 and 9. Even professional chemists use these spectra as reference data. Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds is written by and for organic chemists, and emphasizes the synergistic effect resulting from the interplay of the spectra.

Molecular Biopharmaceutics

This is an introductory textbook on molecular biopharmaceutics. Molecular biopharmaceutics involves the study of drug absorption, transport and delivery at the molecular level. In particular, increasing knowledge of the molecular structure and function of membrane transporter proteins and the understanding that they play a significant role in drug transport across biological membranes has lead to growing interest in this area from the pharmaceutical industry. This emerging knowledge of membrane transporter proteins has implications for understanding drug disposition and in turn for the development of more effective drug delivery strategies.
The proposed text will provide an overview of the field of molecular biopharmaceutics, and will explain its importance in drug development. It will focus on describing the interplay between the chemistry of drug molecules and membrane transporters, and will guide researchers in setting up experiments that may help in understanding the mechanisms and kinetics involved in drug absorption, transport and delivery.

New to the revised Fourth Edition are completely updated content; questions written in vignette format; a page of color plates depicting staining methods; and more information on immunology, parasitology, and fungi.

Pentacle. Advanced Alignment-Independent 3D QSAR - Software



Pentacle is an advanced software tool for obtaining alignment-independent 3D quantitative structure-activity relationships. The program starts from a set of structures, computing highly relevant 3D maps of interaction energies between the molecule and chemical probes (GRID based Molecular Interaction Fields, or MIFs). Pentacle automatically encodes these maps into GRID Independent Descriptors (GRIND and GRIND2 descriptors), which are independent of the alignment of the series, thus bypassing one of the most time-consuming aspects of traditional 3D QSAR.Starting from 3D structures of an active series of compounds, Pentacle is able to build a model within a couple of minutes, and guide the user step-by-step through extracting the most useful information

Key Features :
  1. Automatically calculate GRID-based GRIND & GRIND2 descriptors
  2. Create and explore models interactively using advanced multivariate analyses, linked to the 3D Molecular Interaction Fields of the series
  3. Automatically align structures to aid interpretation using the new CLACC algorithm
Pentacle includes new MIF sampling and encoding algorithms improving on those previously implemented for the Almond GRIND 3D QSAR program. The example shows several TACE inhibitors and the Pentacle 3D QSAR model. One of the important contributions to the activity of the series is a polar interaction (illustrated by the red vectors between the yellow hydrophobic field nodes to the blue hydrogen bond donor field nodes) with Thr347. Pentacle is able to import the compounds, calculate the descriptors, build a model, and help you interpret the model in just couple of minutes.

Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Second Edition

The Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology provides a comprehensive survey of current biochemistry and molecular biology. Over the last few years, the language of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology has expanded enormously to the extent that few scientists can expect to be familiar with all aspects of it. This is partly due to the Genome projects and the successive -omics projects which have provided comprehensive information about genes, the functions of gene products, and cellular processes. At the same time, terms from other subject areas appear increasingly in the biochemical literature. The popular Dictionary has been comprehensively reviewed and updated to include many important new concepts and words. The entries are short but informative, providing up-to-date information on a broad range of topics, including definitions for selected terms from Bioinformatics, Biophysics, Cell Biology, Chemistry, Genetics, Immunology, Mathematics, Microbiology, Pharmacology, Systems Biology, and Toxicology. There are over 21,000 main entries, which give details of biochemical substances and the processes in which they are involved, define methods and concepts in molecular biology, and give definitions of biochemical symbols and abbreviations. It points out pitfalls where terms are often confused. It explains the precise syntax of biochemical terms, such as Greek letters and other formatting, which are lost when searching the Internet. In addition the dictionary is illustrated with over 900 chemical structures.

The Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology will serve as an invaluable reference for biochemists and molecular biologists seeking information outside their own fields, and for those wishing to revisit fundamental principles.

FieldAlign Ver 2.1.1(Similar to SAR)

FieldAlign™ is a smart molecular alignment tool for modellers and medicinal chemists. Given a 3D template molecule, it can align other molecules entered in 2D to that template rapidly and in a biologically-relevant manner. The template would commonly be an active molecule (or set of molecules) in its bioactive conformation. The template molecule could be obtained from a FieldTemplater™ alignment hypothesis, a ligand extracted from the active site of a protein, docking or pharmacophore studies.

FieldAlign™ is ideal for visual inspection of alignments of actives from different series and identifying shared field features or pharmacophores, providing a qualitative indication of field SAR. FieldAlign is useful at the early stage of library design as small virtual libraries can be aligned to an active template and the chemist can select those scaffolds and monomers which together best match the active field template. FieldAlign can also be used as an aid to lead optimisation: iteratively changing molecules in FieldAlign and observing the alignments and field patterns can provide powerful insights into the direction that your chemistry should go. It is also invaluable for overlaying series of molecules prior to 3D QSAR studies where a good alignment of the molecules is critical for obtaining meaningful models.

FieldAlign™ is available as a Linux or Windows GUI program. A Linux command line version is also available which can be readily customized by expert users.

Anna Karenina__Leo Tolstoy

Anna Karenina is a novel by the Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, published in serial installments from 1873 to 1877 in the periodical "The
Russian Messenger". Tolstoy clashed with its editor Mikhail Katkov over issues that arose in the final installment; therefore, the novel's first complete appearance was in book form.
The character of Anna was likely inspired, in part, by Maria_Hartung, the elder daughter of the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin. Soon after meeting her at dinner, Tolstoy began reading Pushkin's prose and once had a fleeting daydream of "a bare exquisite aristocratic elbow", which proved to be the first intimation of Anna's character.The novel is currently enjoying popularity as demonstrated by a recent poll of 125 contemporary authors by J. Peder Zane, published in 2007 in The Top Ten, which declared that Anna Karenina is the "greatest novel ever written"!

Pharmacy Practice--Kevin Taylor & Geoffrey Harding

Today's pharmaceutical services are patient-oriented rather than drug-oriented. This shift towards patient-centred care comes at a time when healthcare is delivered by an integrated team of health workers. Effective Pharmacy practice requires an understanding of the social context within which pharmacy is practised, recognising the particular needs and circumstances of the users of pharmaceutical services and of pharmacy's place within health service provision. Designed for undergraduate and postgraduate pharmacists, Pharmacy Practice provides a background to the social context of pharmacy including:
* the development of pharmacy practice
* international dimensions of pharmacy practice
* health, illness, and medicines use
* professional practice
* meeting the pharmaceutical care needs of specific populations
* measuring and regulating medicines use
* research methods, evaluation, audit and clinical governance.
