The development, which was recently described in The Journal of Analytical Toxicology, could help police determine whether a person has taken heroin or inadvertently come into contact with it, for example, by shaking hands with someone who has handled it.

Pharmacokinetics of Cannabis and its Secondary Metabolites   Once Cannabis enters the body, it undergoes a variety of different biological pathways that allow for its therapeutic effects to arise. In order to gain a better understanding as to how Cannabis can be efficiently used for medicinal purposes, it is imperative to investigate its pharmacokinetic properties following consumption.       New drug provides hope for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy   Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic, neuromuscular disease in which a patient lacks dystrophin, a structural protein present within muscle cells. This leads to inflammation and necrosis of muscles and gradual replacement of muscle tissue with fat and fibrous tissues resulting in muscle weakness.       Single-Molecule Fluorescence for the GPCR Study – Conformational Dynamics   A review, by Professors Quast and Margeat from the French National Centre for Scientific Research exploring, has addressed G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) structural dynamics and the role of single-molecule fluorescence SMF methods in their interrogation.       How is Chemoinformatics Used in Drug Discovery?   Chemoinformatics is a relatively new principle of chemistry and is based upon the processing of data concerning chemical and molecular structures through the use of computational analysis. The analysis of these data allows the relationship between chemical structure, chemical properties, and molecular activity to be studied. It is an in silico technique, which means it is a form of scientific study which is performed virtually on a computer via software and simulations.
