Practical Handbook of Pharmaceutical Engineering : A basic Approach

 Introduction of pharmaceutical engineering practicals through a nationwide uniform syllabus set by Pharmacy Council of India is an honest effort to enrich the knowledge of pharmacy students in the field of Pharmaceutical Engineering. Earlier it was difficult for both teachers as well as students to explain and understand theoretical concepts simply by stretching the imagination. The method of learning through experimentation simplifies the theoretical concepts along with giving training of their applicability in pharmaceutical manufacturing.  Most of the practicals introduced in the syllabus are new to the teaching and learning communities in our profession and thus it is necessary to develop well illustrated and simplified way of explaining experiments. It is essential to learn proper concepts, develop analogical procedures, record observations, use proper units for physical quantities and calculations, to avoid complexity and resolve problems arising during performing the practicals.  This book mainly focuses on converting lengthy and critical procedures into simple and feasible ones that can be performed in the laboratory with minimum setup. It is a compilation of concepts that explain the principle behind the practicals in a student-friendly way. It provides detailed observation tables with units and constants as per the requirement for calculations during experiments and easy data and graphical presentation
