Good Clinical Practice

The concept of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) goes beyond a mere collection of guidelines and complex, challenging language to interpret. It encompasses the culmination of years of progress and revelations in the field of medicine, encompassing both well-intentioned and misguided human decisions, along with consequences that range from unfortunate to truly horrifying. GCP serves as… Continue reading Good Clinical Practice

Good Laboratory Practice for Nonclinical Laboratory Studies

Complying with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice for Nonclinical Laboratory Studies (GLP) is of utmost importance to ensure the reliability and credibility of study data. Nonclinical laboratory studies, also known as preclinical studies, play a vital role as a prerequisite for demonstrating the safety and essential performance aspects of products intended for human use.… Continue reading Good Laboratory Practice for Nonclinical Laboratory Studies

Navigating the Stability Universe

There is a universe of individuals, departments, and contract organizations outside the direct control of the Stabilitarian which interact with the stability process in ways that can boost or hinder the success of the program. Some of these are obvious while others go virtually unrecognized, yet members of both can impact us severely and deserve… Continue reading Navigating the Stability Universe

Practical Aspects of Emulsions for the Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic and Related Industries

While it is common knowledge that water and oil do not mix, it is less known that given the right chemistry and processing, a cosmetically elegant emulsion of these two immiscible liquids can be made stable for years. But without proper knowledge of the science behind emulsions, failures can occur. This accredited training course is… Continue reading Practical Aspects of Emulsions for the Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic and Related Industries
