Synopsis

This text covers in detail the main quantitative approaches to the development of drugs, presenting a unique synthesis of the most recent advances in this field of research. The increasing interest and importance of QSAR studies on drug design is covered in eight sections, beginning with a review of the impressive progress made in the QSAR field. The volume continues with in- depth examinations of such pertinent areas in QSAR research as major descriptors in QSAR studies, hydrophobicity (lipophilicity), new applications of multivariate data analyses of QSAR parameters, advanced techniques and expert systems in computer-aided design, general methods and specific examples of molecular modeling and graphic systems, and bioactive peptides in drug design. The book includes information on the application of QSAR studies in the field of medicinal chemistry, with coverage of such diverse compounds as antibiotics, antimicrobials and fungicides, carcinogens and antineoplas
