Abstract

This thesis includes many different production and research projects that can help make many positive advances in the pharmaceutical and biomedical area. The first part of my thesis describes my practical experience at Anatrace Products, LLC. Included in this chapter is the large scale synthesis of amphiphiles for biological uses. The second part of the thesis describes my attempt to build an analytical profile of polar extracts from mastic gum for the potential treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
