This practical manual and standard reference work provides the definitive source of analytical data for drugs and poisons. It is intended for use primarily by scientists faced with identifying and quantifying thes substances in body fluids, tissue samples and pharmaceutical and industrial products.

The completely revised and expanded third edition of Clarke's Analysis of Drugs and Poisons has been written by over 40 international experts, and also boosts an editorial advisory board of over 45 world renowned scientists.

The new edition of Clarke's Analysis of Drugs and Poisons now comprises two volumes, housed in a durable slipcase.

Volume one contains 31 chapters by leading international scientists covering the practice areas and analytical procedures used in analytical toxicology.

Volume two contains 1737 drug and poison monographs detailing physical properties, analytical methods, pharmacokinetic data and toxicology data.

Clarke's Analysis of Drugs and Poisons is an essential requirement for all forensic and crime laboratories, toxicologists, clinical pharmacology departments, poison information centres, pathologists, clinical toxicologists, hospital pharmacists and analytical chemists.
