Vaccines are a group of pharmaceuticals that include some of the oldest biologically-made compounds. The Smallpox vaccine was introduced by Edward Jenner as early as in 1796 and Louis Pasteur created the first live attenuated bacterial (Chicken Cholera) and viral (Rabies) vaccines at the end of the 19th century. A vaccine contains an antigen that […]
NIRS combined with appropriate mathematical models and pattern recognition techniques allows analysis of a wide variety of sample types rapidly. Second, NIRS is a non-destructive technique which avoids complex sample preparation by chemical or physical processes. In fact, both solid and liquid samples in different types of packaging stored under different conditions can all be […]
ABSTRACT: In a pharmaceutical organization a quality control deals with testing, sampling, specification, and documentation, release procedure which ensure that all tests are actually carried out prior to release of material for sale or use. Four basic area of testing parenteral are Sterility, Freedom form Pyrogens, Freedom from particulate matter and leakers. The achievement of […]
Disintegration time is the time required for a dosage form to break up in to granules of specified size (or smaller) under carefully specified conditions. Where as dissolution is a process by which solid substance enters in the solvent to yield a solution.It is controlled by the affinity between the solid substance and the solvent. In other […]

Filtration is a common method of sterilizing drug product solutions. An appropriate sterilizing grade filter is one which reproducibly removes all microorganisms from the process stream, producing a sterile effluent. Such filters usually have a rated porosity of 0.2 micron or smaller. Whatever filter or combination of filters is used, validation should include microbiological challenges […]
