Course Objectives All PharmaTraining courses focus on two key objectives. These are to provide attendees with knowledge - information, which will assist you in making better judgements - and skills, which will allow you to apply the knowledge you have received. We guarantee to engage your interest and commitment on the course, and we expect our training to improve your effectiveness. About this course The purpose of this course is to give an overview of photostability,and where it fits in the stability testing programme and the importance of photostability. The course is highly interactive and held in a relaxed environment.
It will cover: Why do we do photostability tests? Concepts and background in photostability. Identifying drug substances most likely to absorb light and display signs of poor photostability. Understanding photostability terminology. Where does phototstability fit in the overall stability testing program? Why does photostability matter? (exercise).
