Development and Validation of Analytical Methods for Pharmaceutical Drug Products
Keywords:
Analytical Methods, Pharmaceutical Drugs,, Method Validation, High-Performance Liquid Chromatography, Paracetamol, Stability StudiesAbstract
This paper focuses on the development and validation of analytical methods to ensure the quality, efficacy, and safety of pharmaceutical drug products. The study covers various analytical techniques, including High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) Spectroscopy, and Mass Spectrometry (MS), and their application in the quantitative analysis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). A case study on a model drug, Paracetamol (C8H9NO2), is presented to demonstrate the process of method development and validation. Stability studies were also conducted to evaluate the degradation profile of the drug under different conditions.
