Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry is an international and interdisciplinary vehicle publishing new knowledge and findings on enzyme inhibitors and inhibitory processes and agonist/antagonist receptor interactions in the development of medicinal and anti-cancer agents and an understanding of their action.The Journal will publish research papers, short communications and reviews on current developments in enzymology, cell biology, chemical biology, microbiology, physiology, pharmacology leading to drug design, molecular recognition processes and distribution and metabolism of biologically active compounds. Among the various fields of study, special attention is given to structure and molecular aspects, enzyme kinetics and inactivation mechanisms, structure-activity relationships (QSAR, graphic techniques), drug development studies, drug release and control mechanisms in metabolic processes.Read More: http://informahealthcare.com/page/enz/Description.

The Journal of Ethnopharmacology is dedicated to the exchange of information and understandings about people's use of plants, fungi, animals, microorganisms and minerals and their biological and pharmacological effects based on the principles established through international conventions. Early people confronted with illness and disease, discovered a wealth of useful therapeutic agents in the plant and animal kingdoms. The empirical knowledge of these medicinal substances and their toxic potential was passed on by oral tradition and sometimes recorded in herbals and other texts on materia medica. Many valuable drugs of today (e.g., atropine, ephedrine, tubocurarine, digoxin, reserpine) came into use through the study of indigenous remedies. Chemists continue to use plant-derived drugs (e.g., morphine, taxol, physostigmine, quinidine, emetine) as prototypes in their attempts to develop more effective and less toxic medicinals.In recent years the preservation of local knowledge, the promotion of indigenous medical systems in primary health care, and the conservation of biodiversity have become even more of a concern to all scientists working at the interface of social and natural sciences but especially to ethnopharmacologists. Recognizing the sovereign rights of States over their natural resources, ethnopharmacologists are particularly concerned with local people's rights to further use and develop their autochthonous resources.Accordingly, today's ethnopharmacological research embraces the multidisciplinary effort in the:• documentation of indigenous medical knowledge,• scientific study of indigenous medicines in order to contribute in the long-run to improved health care in the regions of study, as well as• search for pharmacologically unique principles from existing indigenous remedies.The Journal of Ethnopharmacology publishes original articles concerned with the observation and experimental investigation of the biological activities of plant and animal substances used in the traditional medicine of past and present cultures. The journal will particularly welcome interdisciplinary papers with an ethnopharmacological, an ethnobotanical or an ethnochemical approach to the study of indigenous drugs. Reports of anthropological and ethnobotanical field studies fall within the journal's scope. Studies involving pharmacological and toxicological mechanisms of action are especially welcome. Clinical studies on efficacy will be considered if contributing to the understanding of specific ethnopharmacological problems. The journal welcomes review articles in the above mentioned fields especially those highlighting the multi-disciplinary nature of ethnopharmacology. Commentaries are by invitation only.

The Journal of Food and Drug Analysis (JFDA) is the official peer-reviewed publication of the Food and Drug Administration, Taiwan (TFDA). It is published quarterly by Elsevier in March, June, September and December, and indexed in Abstracts of Chinese Medicines, Biochemistry & Biophysics Citation Index, BIOSIS Previews, Chemical Abstracts Service, EMBASE, International Food Information Service (FSTA), Research Alert, Science Citation Index Expanded, ScienceDirect and SCOPUS.The JFDA is an international journal that is dedicated to publishing original research and review papers on the analyses of food, drugs, medical devices, cosmetics and traditional Chinese medicine as well as related disciplines that are of topical interest to the public health profession. The goal of the Journal is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss new issues and developments in the different areas of analysis.The scope of the Journal includes analytical methodologies, policy analyses, risk analyses and behavioral analyses in relation to food, drugs, medical devices, cosmetics and traditional Chinese medicine. Contributions may be in the form of review articles, original articles, case reports or research notes that have not been published and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is an essential reference filled with recent research and other valuable information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. The Journal serves as a focus point through which investigators and others may publish material of importance to the production, marketing, and utilization of these plants and associated extracts. The journal covers the following topics: growth, development, horticulture, ecology, physiology, genetic, chemistry, and economics. Original articles, review articles, and book reviews provide information of interest to an international audience of researchers, teachers, technicians, and managers involved with production and/or marketing of herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. Managers of food companies, food processing facilities, medical research laboratories, government agencies, and others interested in new chemicals, food additives, international trade, patents, and other items can easily review new findings. The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is a forum in which recent research and other information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants is shared. The Journal represents a centralized database accessible by investigators within the international community that work with or have an interest in herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

The spectrum of interests is well illustrated by the published proceedings of the regular international Symposia of the European, American, Japanese, Australian, Chinese and Indian Peptide Societies. The Journal of Peptide Science publishes the bi-annual EPS Newsletter and sponsors the EPS Website http://www.eurpepsoc.com.

The Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics is devoted to illustrating the importance of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacometrics in the understanding of drug action, therapy, design, development, and evaluation. It presents experimental and theoretical papers examining the kinetics of drug disposition and drug action; clinical pharmacokinetics; factors affecting formation and disposition of drug metabolites; dosage form evaluation from animals and humans; bioavailabilty studies, scaling from animals to humans, and in vitro and in vivo correlations. A special section is provided for papers addressing pharmacometrics, the computational and statistical methods used for the modeling, analysis, interpretation, and simulation of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data. Most published papers illustrate and apply their finding to real-world observations in animals and/or humans. Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics publishes six issues a year.
