INTRODUCTION
Quality assurance is a wide ranging concept covering all matters that individually or collectively influence that quality of the product. It plays a central role in determining the safety and efficiency of medicines. Highly specific and sensitive analytical techniques hold the key role to the design, development, standard and quality control of medicinal product.1
Quality of the drug product is very vital, as it involves life. Proper manufacture and quality control of pharmaceuticals is the vital segment of strong primary healthcare programme worldwide. Quality is the total sum of all factors which contribute directly or indirectly to the safety; efficacy and acceptability of the product.2
Pharmaceutical analysis, a branch of pharmacy, plays a very significant role in quality control of pharmaceuticals through a rigid check on raw materials used in manufacturing of formulation and on finished products. Analytical chemistry has since long, occupied an important place in the development of science and technology. It is primarily concerned about determining the qualitative and quantitative composition of material under study. The qualitative analysis gives us the information about the nature of sample by knowing about the presence or absence of certain components. The quantitative analysis deals about the content present in the sample. The development in analytical sciences has been more significant and prominent in recent years than the past. This has really broaden our vistas and helped to develop new methods of analysis. In pharmacy analytical chemistry is responsible for developing sensitive, reliable and more accurate methods for the estimation of drug in pharmaceutical dosage form.
