Q1. What do you know different types of chemical solution preparation

Ans.

Different types of chemical solution preparation include standard solutions, volumetric solutions, buffer solutions, and reagent solutions.

  • Standard solutions are prepared by accurately weighing a known amount of a pure substance and dissolving it in a solvent.

  • Volumetric solutions are prepared by measuring a known volume of a concentrated solution and diluting it to a desired concentration.

  • Buffer solutions are prepared by mixing a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak bas...read more

Q2. What do you know q.c. testing parameter

Ans.

Q.C. testing parameters are specific criteria used to assess the quality of analytical results.

  • Q.C. testing parameters are used to ensure the accuracy, precision, and reliability of analytical measurements.

  • These parameters may include limits for acceptable levels of impurities, precision of measurements, accuracy of calibration standards, etc.

  • Examples of Q.C. testing parameters include limit of detection, limit of quantitation, linearity, repeatability, reproducibility, etc.

Q3. How much total experience in pharma

Ans.

I have 5 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry.

  • 5 years of experience in pharmaceutical industry

Q8. Describe reverse phase HPLC

Ans.

Reverse phase HPLC is a chromatographic technique where the stationary phase is non-polar and the mobile phase is polar.

  • Stationary phase is non-polar, such as C18 bonded silica

  • Mobile phase is polar, such as water/acetonitrile

  • Analytes are separated based on their hydrophobicity

  • Commonly used in pharmaceutical and environmental analysis
