Handbook of Analytical Quality by Design addresses the steps involved in analytical method development and validation in an effort to avoid quality crises in later stages. The AQbD approach significantly enhances method performance and robustness which are crucial during inter-laboratory studies and also affect the analytical lifecycle of the developed method. Sections cover sample preparation problems and the usefulness of the QbD concept involving Quality Risk Management (QRM), Design of Experiments (DoE) and Multivariate (MVT) Statistical Approaches to solve by optimizing the developed method, along with validation for different techniques like HPLC, UPLC, UFLC, LC-MS and electrophoresis. This will be an ideal resource for graduate students and professionals working in the pharmaceutical industry, analytical chemistry, regulatory agencies, and those in related academic fields.

Detection of Drugs and Their Metabolites in Oral Fluid presents the analytical chemistry methods used for the detection and quantification of drugs and their metabolites in human oral fluid. The authors summarize the state of the science, including its strengths, weaknesses, unmet methodological needs, and cutting-edge trends. This volume covers the salient aspects of oral fluid drug testing, including specimen collection and handling, initial testing, point of collection testing (POCT), specimen validity testing (SVT), and confirmatory and proficiency testing. Analytes discussed include amphetamines, cannabinoids, cocaine, opiates, phencyclidine, cannabimimetics, and miscellaneous drugs. This practical guide helps users turn knowledge into practice, moving logically from an outline of the problem, to the evaluation of the appropriateness of oral fluid as a test medium, and finally to a consideration of detection methods and their validation and employment.

Pharmaceutically active substances are a class of new, so-called "emerging" contaminants that have raised great concern in recent years. Human and veterinary drugs are constantly being introduced into the environment, mainly as a result of the manufacturing process. Over time, this level of chemical input may lead to long-term concentrations and promote continual, but unnoticed adverse effects on aquatic and terrestrial organisms. Analysis, Fate and Removal of Pharmaceuticals in the Water Cycle discusses state-of-the-art analytical methods for trace determination of pharmaceuticals in environmental samples while reviewing the fate and occurrence of pharmaceuticals in the water cycle (elimination in wastewater and drinking water treatment). Focus is given to the newest developments in the treatment technologies, such as membrane bioreactors and advance oxidation processes.
