Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This is the second volume of the Special Issue titled "Studies of the Dosage Form and Stability of the Drug by Various Techniques", which was highly successful. In the first volume, we published 11 articles. (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/processes/special_issues/Stability_Drug).
Stability determines the shelf life of drugs, during which their pharmacological activities do not decline and any degradation products are nontoxic. The medicinal product remains stable if the declared content of the drug substance does not differ by more than 5%, if the decomposition products and microbiological contamination are within the acceptable standards, and if there are no changes in the appearance and physical properties of the preparation or drug substance release. Ensuring the stability of a medicinal product begins at the stage of drug substance synthesis, then during technological processes (granulation, tableting), packaging (placing in immediate packaging), distribution (wholesalers, pharmacies), and administration to the patient.
This Special Issue, titled “Studies of the Dosage Form and Stability of the Drug by Various Techniques, 2nd Edition”, aims to curate novel advances in the development and application of different analytical techniques in drug analyses. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- The dosage form of the drug and its stability;
- Physical factors influencing the shelf life of medicinal products;
- Chemical factors influencing the shelf life of medicinal products;
- Microbiological factors influencing the shelf life of medicinal products;
- Stabilization treatments during drug preparation;
- Drug stability study;
- Drug purity testing;
- The use of new media in the formulation of a dosage form with model substances;
- The influence of the composition of the tablet mass on the availability of micro- and macro-elements;
- The determination of the active substance in medicinal products;
- Drug quality assessment;
- Dosage form technology.
