Opis

Experimental and Evidence based Protocols in Pharmacology provides a holistic coverage of scientific protocols involved in the pharmacology and toxicological studies. The book serves as a reference to the biomedical researchers working in pharmacology and allied subjects to mitigate the challenges in the routine laboratory procedures. Book has 22 chapters with evidence based protocols and procedures to conduct the defined experiment. Further, this book provides single reference window with evidence based practical approaches to cater the need of academician and research scholars. The book is designed in a diligent manner to provide majority of protocols viz. Primary cell culture, Mesenchymal stem cells isolation and its application, DNA fragmentation Assay, oxidative stress evaluation protocols, Cytotoxicity and Genotoxicity Assays, Apoptosis studies, Analytical studies involving HPLC, GC-MS, ICP-OES and experimental pharmacological tool in smooth muscle pharmacological studies etc. to cement the scientific acumen. This book imbibes all the basic and advanced research protocols along with their translational approaches in experiments involved in pharmacology and also provides the insight of example based drug assays to help in bioprospecting of naive molecules.

Further, this book also provide a reference book to the researchers involved in toxicological testing using OECD testing guideline to calculate the lethal dose of any compound in a better manner. This MS also suffice the different methods to calculate the median lethal dose (LD50). The important reproductive toxicity assays to ascertain the toxic potential of any xenobiotics is also incorporated in this MS. Moreover, sophisticated technique like Flow cytometry and other experimental models viz. Direct and Indirect LPS induced acute lung injury model has also well written to provide an insight of the experimentation involving laboratory animals.
