The Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology is an international journal devoted to drug delivery and pharmaceutical technology. The journal covers all innovative aspects of all pharmaceutical dosage forms and the most advanced research on controlled release, bioavailability and drug absorption, nanomedicines, gene delivery, tissue engineering, etc. Hot topics, related to manufacturing processes and quality control, are also welcomed.

ournal of Drug Targeting publishes papers and reviews on all aspects of drug delivery and targeting for molecular and macromolecular drugs including the design and characterization of carrier systems (whether colloidal, protein or polymeric) for both vitro and/or in vivo applications of these drugs.Papers are not restricted to drugs delivered by way of a carrier, but also include studies on molecular and macromolecular drugs that are designed to target specific cellular or extra-cellular molecules. As such the journal publishes results on the activity, delivery and targeting of therapeutic peptides/proteins and nucleic acids including genes/plasmid DNA, gene silencing nucleic acids (e.g. small interfering (si)RNA, antisense oligonucleotides, ribozymes, DNAzymes), as well as aptamers, mononucleotides and monoclonal antibodies and their conjugates. The diagnostic application of targeting technologies as well as targeted delivery of diagnostic and imaging agents also fall within the scope of the journal. In addition, papers are sought on self-regulating systems, systems responsive to their environment and to external stimuli and those that can produce programmed, pulsed and otherwise complex delivery patterns.Journal of Drug Targeting also carries papers on the physiological and other biological barriers to delivery and targeting, and means of overcoming the barriers, for example, by penetration enhancers, and covers subjects such as extravasation, diffusion in tumours and target tissues, avoidance of the reticulo-endothelial system, and toxicity testing and licensing of novel delivery systems.The Journal’s life-time achievement award winners to date are: 2009: PP Speiser (Switzerland), 2008: G Gregoriadis (UK), 2007: H Maeda (Japan), 2006: H Ringsdorf (Germany), 2005: A T Florence (UK), 2004: R L Juliano (USA)Read More: http://informahealthcare.com/page/drt/Description.

The Journal of Exercise Science and Fitness (JESF), formerly the Hong Kong Journal of Sports Medicine and SportsScience, is the official, peer-reviewed journal of The Society of Chinese Scholars on Exercise Physiology andFitness (SCSEPF), the Physical Fitness Association of Hong Kong, China (HKPFA), and the Hong Kong Associationof Sports Medicine and Sports Science (HKASMSS). It is published biannually by Elsevier (Singapore) Pte Ltd. TheEnglish-language publication features original investigations, comprehensive reviews and case studies on currenttopics in exercise science, physical fitness and physical education.The JESF is currently indexed/abstracted in SCI Expanded, CAB ABSTRACTS, CINAHL Information Systems(Glendale, USA), EMBASE, FMSHK (Journal Abstracts), GLOBAL HEALTH, Physical Education Index (CambridgeScientific Abstracts, USA), ScienceDirect, SCOPUS, SIIC Data Bases, and SPORTDiscus (SIRC, Canada).

Journal of Generic Medicines is the major, international business journal written by and for professionals working in the generic medicines sector. It includes expert analysis, briefings and legal updates on all aspects of business development, regulatory affairs, manufacturing and marketing affecting the generic pharmaceutical industry.

The Journal of Liquid Chromatography & Related Technologies is an internationally acclaimed forum for fast publication of critical, peer reviewed manuscripts dealing with analytical, preparative and process scale liquid chromatography and all of its related technologies, including TLC, capillary electrophoresis, capillary electrochromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography and extraction, field-flow technologies, affinity, and much more. New separation methodologies are added when they are developed. Papers dealing with research and development results, as well as critical reviews of important technologies, are published in the Journal.

The Journal of Microencapsulation is a well-established, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the publication of original research findings related to the preparation, properties and uses of individually encapsulated novel small particles, as well as significant improvements to tried-and-tested techniques relevant to micro and nano particles and their use in a wide variety of industrial, engineering, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and research applications. Its scope extends beyond conventional microcapsules to all other small particulate systems such as self assembling structures that involve preparative manipulation.The journal covers:*the chemistry of encapsulation materials;*the physics of release through the capsule wall and/or desorption from carrier;*the techniques of preparation;*content and storage;*the many uses to which microcapsules are put.Nanotechnology is now moving into medicine as nanomedicine; an emerging speciality with great potential in the development of unique opportunities for more refined targeting and for new therapeutic approaches to diagnose and treat life threatening diseases. Therefore, coverage also includes nanotechnological advances in the design and synthesis of these structures and their potential applications. Furthermore, there is an extensive information and reference section found in every issue of the journal comprising patent briefings. This publication is aimed at a broad, interdisciplinary audience of academic and industrial researchers actively engaged in basic and applied laboratory practice, related to engineering micro- and nano-structured particles, including pharmaceutical science, medicine, photographic and copying processes, food technology, agrochemicals, adhesives and all those interested in small particle science and technology.

Journal of Nanobiotechnology is ready to receive manuscripts on all aspects of scientific and technological advances in the fields of medical, biological and nanoscale sciences.

Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis (JPA) is a peer-reviewed open access journal for original research articles, short communication as well as review articles related to all aspects of Pharmaceutical Analysis.
