QSAR and Strategies in the Design of Bioactive Compounds

40 papers by academicians and industrial researchers consider methods for developing new and more efficient strategies in drug design and for helping to predict toxicity problems that may occur.

---

Forty papers by academicians and industrial researchers consider methods for developing new and more efficient strategies in drug design and for helping to predict toxicity problems that may occur. The discussion focused on new methods for determining quantitative structure-activity relationships, parameters suitable for the characterization of interrelationships, and the applications of QSAR to medicinal chemistry, pharmacokinetics, and agrochemistry. This book will help pharmacologists, pharmacists, biochemists, toxicologists, and biotechnologists achieve a better understanding of drug action mechanisms and by this a more rational drug action.
