TECHNOLOGY

In pharmaceutical sciences generally technology also refers to pharmaceutical

technology, which involves scientific aspects that are important and critical in the

development as well as manufacturing of new drugs, dispensing methods,

manufacturing of medical devices, etc.

TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT

It is the systematic use of scientific, economic, technical and commercial knowledge to

meet a specific set of goals and requirement.

TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER

Technology transfer is a collaborative process which involves the transfer of all types

of documents, knowledge, experience related to all aspects of technology. It also

involves the transfer of legal rights (intellectual property rights).

TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER IN PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES

Technology transfer ensures the transfer of knowledge, techniques and experience

required for the manufacturing of quality drug product. It is a carrier which carries

quality drug product from its laboratory-scale production to commercial-scale

production. For the economic growth, a product or service should be exposed to the

marketplace.

A single department is not involved in carrying out technology transfer. It is a

combined task which involves research and development (R&D), quality assurance

(QA) and quality control (QC), administrative staff, supporting staff, etc. of developer

as well as a secondary unit. As we know that technology transfer is a systematic process

which involves various stages. A successful and productive technology transfer requires

the support and effort of different departments.

Basically, there are four steps involved in transfer of technology:

1. Research phase

2. Development phase

3. Production phase

4. Documentation

Technology transfer dossier contains the following documents

i. Master formula card

ii. Master formula

iii. Standard test procedures

iv. Specifications
