Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

Material related to the analysis of the quality according to Microbiological Purity and Particle Size indicators of various dosage forms of ibuprofen drug and substance are presented. Possible regulatory requirements for microbiological quality are analyzed. The drug being studied is shown to affect pharmacopoeial strains of Gram-positive aerobic bacteria (B. subtilis) and yeast (C. albicans) and mold fungi (A. brasiliensis) when seeded on appropriate growth media under conditions for determining microbiological purity. The revealed antimicrobial effect was eliminated by additional dilution, which made it possible to use direct seeding for analysis. The critical quality indicator for ibuprofen suspension was Particle Size, a discrepancy of which was found in drugs for babies up to 1 year and children older than 1 year.
