DEPARTMENT OF PHARMACEUTICAL ANALYSIS

Pharmaceutical Analysis requires analytical instruments, the students are taught extensively the analytical methods and techniques including the application of sophisticated instruments like, HPLC, IR, UV spectroscopic methods for drugs, pharmaceuticals and others.
Dr.T.Vetrichelvan is recognized as a research guide for Ph.D is recognized for conducting Ph.D. programmes in Pharmaceutical Analysis by the the Tamilnadu Dr.M.G.R Medical University, chennai
The postgraduate laboratory for Pharmaceutical Analysis is equipped with latest analytical state-of-the-art equipments and trained analyst to undertake pharmaceutical analysis, drug analysis from the biological fluids and herbal formulations. The major research programmes are largely focused on new analytical method development. Postgraduates have core subjects like Advanced Pharmaceutical Analysis, Quality Assurance and they are specifically trained in Bioanalytical methods, GLP and documentation systems

1. Development and validation of analytical methods for multi component drugs in their formulations.


2. Development and validation of chiral separation of some enantiomeric drugs  by HPLC
