Abstract
Analytical methods development and validation play important roles in the discovery, development, and manufacture of pharmaceuticals. The official test methods that result from these processes are used by quality control laboratories to ensure the identity, purity, potency, and performance of drug products. This review gives information regarding various stages involved in development and validation of analytical methods like LC, HPLC, MS.
