About the Book:
A Laboratory Manual of Physical Pharmaceutics is introduced to the B.Pharm students for easy understanding of the principles of physical pharmaceutics. The Experimental manual covers experiments to provide fundamental principles of physical pharmacy necessary to design physically and chemically stable dosage forms and ensure their therapeutic safety and efficacy. This manual is a unique in nature as it covers the two necessities of students: text on theoretical principles and its application including illustrative exercises in the form of practical.
· This Book illustrates all the experiments included in various Universities syllabus of physical pharmacy.
· It also provides an integrated understanding of theory and practical applications associated with physicochemical concepts in a very lucid language.
· Reviews the physico-chemical concepts in the design of various dosage forms.
· Provides several experiments related to physical chemical characteristics of any dosage forms.
· Useful to teachers also.

About the Author:
Sadhan Kumar Dutta, M.Sc, PhD., F.I.C., started his career as a lecturer in Chemistry at Rajshahi Govt. College, Foujdarhat Cadet College, Sylhet Govt. College and also worked as lecturer in Biophysical Chemistry in the Department of Biochemistry of Dacca University. He had joined as a lecturer in Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the Department of Pharmaceutical Technology, Jadavpur University, Kolkata and served the university for 35 years and finally retired as professor of Pharmacy. In between he also served M.S. University of Baroda as a Professor of Pharmaceutical Technology. He also served as Emeritus Professor at Gupta College of Technological Sciences, Asansol, Bengal School of Technology, Sugandha and Seemanta Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Orisa. He has authored over 60 research papers and still active as research guide. He has authored a well reputed book “Principles of Physical Chemistry and Biophysical Chemistry” for the students of physical chemistry, physical pharmaceutics and biochemistry. He is the recipient of many awards like 2000 outstanding people of 20th century' etc.
Kalyan Kumar Sen is an M. Pharm and Ph.D from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India. He has served 33 years in different fields of Pharmacy, including both industry and teaching. He has guided over 40 master's degree students and 2 PhD theses. He has published around 60 research papers in several well-renowned, peer reviewed journals and enjoyed attending conferences to present his findings. He has also penned 9 book chapters, which were published by National and International publishers. He along with Dr. Sabyasachi Maiti has edited one Internationally published book in pharmaceutical sciences, “Bio-Targets and Drug Delivery Approaches”. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of PharmaSciTech, an international publication of Trinity Trust. A life member of various professional bodies including APTI, ISTE and ISCA, he currently holds the post of Principal and Professor in Pharmaceutics at Gupta College of Technological Sciences, Asansol, West Bengal, India.
