To compile a list of terms with their definitions used in "Process Chemistry/Manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients" and "Pharmaceutics"; to disseminate the list to the scientific community and to solicit uniform adoption of terms in leading scientific journals and in scientific parlance of professionals in this field.
About 850 terms directly related to each of the fields of "Process Chemistry/Manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients" and "Pharmaceutics"; will be compiled and defined by this expert group for dissemination to the scientific community. This will help achieve a common definition base across the various publications in this field. In addition, a more uniform use of these terms should assist in the future construction of glossaries pertaining to this continually evolving field's information.
