This book represents a progressive and thoughtful evolution from the
first edition, reflecting the dynamic growth and modernization of
pharmaceutical sciences.
The first edition was conceived with the principal
objective of enhancing the practical competency of pharmacy students by
offering a structured and comprehensive guide to laboratory methodologies. It provided
detailed, stepwise experimental procedures across key areas of pharmaceutics,
including physical pharmacy, pharmaceutical technology, biopharmaceutics,
pharmacokinetics, and novel drug delivery systems. Designed to bridge the gap
between theoretical instruction and practical application, it proved as a
valuable pedagogical tool, particularly for institutions with limited
infrastructural resources. The manual's clarity of presentation and emphasis on
conceptual understanding contributed to its widespread acceptance among
students and educators.
The second edition signifies as a forward-looking revision that
integrates contemporary developments in the field. While preserving the
fundamental experiments and pedagogical framework of the first edition, it introduces
the advanced computational and formulation-based exercises to align with modern
educational and research needs. The inclusion of experiments on formulation
design using design-expert software, quality by design (QbD) strategies for
tablet development, computational pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD)
simulations, one-compartment intravenous bolus modeling, sensitivity analysis,
and population pharmacokinetic modeling marks a significant step toward blending
traditional laboratory practices with digital and analytical methodologies.
The Manual reflects a
strong commitment to quality, innovation, and academic relevance and would continue
to serve as a concise yet comprehensive resource that strengthens experimental
skills while fostering analytical thinking and creativity in aspiring
pharmaceutical scientists.
