One of the main goals of pharmaceutical Analysis is to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of pharmaceuticals via theoretical and practical teaching. This is the mission of the Department of Pharmaceutical Analysis. This department is equipped with cutting-edge equipment and qualified faculty, making it appropriate for teaching and research in the modern day. The department’s goals are to teach students how to apply analytical techniques in compliance with drug regulatory affairs, emphasise the value of method validation, and teach them how to develop quality assurance and control protocols in compliance with GMP, GLP, and cGMP guidelines. The department routinely instructs students on how to use the official pharmacopoeias to set standards for pure pharmaceuticals and formulations.The department features sophisticated Instruments in its well-maintained laboratories, and it also has a central instrumentation room with cutting-edge analytical equipment available. For routine instruction and research, tools such as gas chromatography, atomic absorption spectrometers, fluorescence spectroscopy, ultra fast liquid chromatography, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV spectrophotometers, polari metres, flame photometers, sonicators, rotary flash evaporators, refractive index, and statistical software are used. The department seeks to focus on bio analytical method development, particularly pharmacokinetic, bioavailability, and bioequivalent studies utilising animal models. The department is currently engaged in applied research, such as method development for API and formulations. The department’s goal is to become a centre of excellence for regulatory affairs and drug quality assurance and control.
