After completing this chapter, students will be able to understand:
It is a part of the pharmaceutical industry where a lab scale formula is transformed into a viable product by the development of liable practical procedure for manufacture.
Bench studies (Product characterization purity).
Animal studies (toxicology, Pharmacokinetics PME, efficiency).
Clinical Studies.
Increasing compliance with regulations as product moves through testing and
exaction.
Increasing knowledge about the product.
Increasing knowledge about the possible problems, snags, pitfalls with manufacture processing, packing, storing and installing the product.
Ultimately facilitation of the transfer of product from laboratory into production
