In today's global marketplace, particular problems can arise when limited control is exercised over new and high-risk medicines. Providing a multidisciplinary approach, Quality Systems and Control for Pharmaceuticals provides a comprehensive overview of the highly regulated area of pharmaceutical manufacture. Author Dipak Kumar Sarker guides readers through key topics and shows how a seemingly disparate subject is amalgamated into the disciplines of quality control and quality assurance. This is an invaluable reference for students as wellas industrial professionals and short course trainees in the pharmaceutical industry. INDICE: Preface. List of figures. List of tables.
