Development of new drugs and control of pharmaceutical manufaturing are complex processes that require accurate analytical studies. The pharmaceutical development cycle passes from the discovery in which the candidate active pharmaceutical ingredient is identified to the preclinical development in which the active ingredient must be characterized and the formulations must be developed and characterized. The subsequent stages of toxicological studies and clinical studies ensure that the drug is safe and effective. Finally, in production the quantity of material produced is increased and critical process parameters and critical material attributes must be monitored to ensure batch consistency.

Several issues related to development projects, drug safety, manufacturing, market demands for evidence-based data and increased regulatory requirements can be overcome through a better understanding of the pharmaceutical product and manufacturing process.
