Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, there has been a surge in research aimed at unraveling the complexities of drug metabolism and developing advanced analytical methods to study pharmaceutical compounds. The intersection of pharmaceuticals, analytical techniques, and metabolic processes plays a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of drug efficacy, safety, and personalized medicine.

On this basis, we are planning this Special Issue of Molecules, entitled “Drug Analysis and ADMET Characteristics: Opportunity and Challenge”, to collect research and review articles. This Special Issue serves as a comprehensive platform for researchers, scientists, and practitioners to share their cutting-edge contributions and insights into the dynamic landscape of drug analysis and ADMET characteristics. The articles included in this issue cover a wide spectrum of topics, ranging from novel analytical methodologies for drug detection to in-depth investigations into the metabolic pathways of specific drugs. The papers could be focused on, but not limited to, macromolecular drugs, gene therapy drugs, and traditional Chinese medicine. Our contributors delve into the challenges and opportunities presented by the ever-expanding repertoire of pharmaceutical agents, addressing issues such as bioavailability, drug–drug interactions, and the role of metabolism in shaping therapeutic outcomes.

We hope you find this Special Issue both informative and inspiring as we collectively strive to unravel the intricacies of drug metabolism and pave the way for innovative approaches in drug development and personalized medicine.
