The book covers a wide range of topics and many new perspectives are given by drawing on research from a variety of fields. Novel, in-depth expositions of the most common delivery devices are given, including nebulizers, dry powder inhalers and propellant metered dose inhalers. The behaviour of aerosols in the respiratory tract is explained in detail, with complete coverage of the fundamentals of current deposition models.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book begins by providing a comprehensive introduction to aspects of aerosol mechanics that are relevant to inhaled pharmaceutical aerosols. It then gives an exhaustive pedagogical description of the behaviour of evaporating and condensing droplets (both aqueous and propellant-based), an introductory chapter on lung geometry and inhalation patterns, and coverage of relevant aspects of fluid mechanics in the lung. Finally, the book provides invaluable, detailed coverage on the mechanics of common pharmaceutical aerosol delivery systems and deposition in the respiratory tract.  Throughout the book are many detailed numerical examples that apply the salient concepts to typical inhaled pharmaceutical aerosols.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book will be of interest to scientists and engineers involved in the research and development of inhaled pharmaceutical aerosol products. Experienced practitioners will find many new perspectives that will greatly enhance their understanding of this complex and rapidly growing field. For those delivering therapeutic agents to the lung, this book is a must-have. Students and academics will find this book an invaluable tool and for newcomers it is a worthy guide to the diverse fields that must be understood to work in the area of inhaled pharmaceutical aerosols.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003eParticle Size Distributions\u003cbr\u003eMotion of a Single Aerosol Particle in a Fluid\u003cbr\u003eParticle Size Changes due to Evaporation or Condensation\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction to the Respiratory Tract\u003cbr\u003eFluid Dynamics in the Respiratory Tract\u003cbr\u003eParticle Deposition in the Respiratory Tract\u003cbr\u003eJet Nebulizers\u003cbr\u003eDry Powder Inhalers\u003cbr\u003eMetered Dose Propellant Inhalers\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Fluid mechanics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Fluid mechanics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Fluid%20mechanics%20%5BPHDF%5D%22\"\u003ePHDF\u003c\/a\u003e], Pharmacology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Pharmacology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Pharmacology%20%5BMMG%5D%22\"\u003eMMG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Academic Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46649197527320,"sku":"9780122569715","price":93.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780122569715_d27e4ef8-5fd1-4d0b-847a-9aee5f16e659.jpg?v=1695006704","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-mechanics-of-inhaled-pharmaceutical-aerosols-an-introduction-hardback-9780122569715","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
