Capabilities in Analytical Chemistry
Few managers in quality control appear to realize that an
organic chemist armed with practical experience and expertise in retrieving
critical information from the
literature is most suited to troubleshooting problems in hplc methods and
many other techniques, rather than an individual with extreme knowledge of
button pushing or fda regulations. When a problem with drug degradation
needs to be solved effectively and expediently, an organic chemist is
capable of offering the best insight.
If you are seeking a creative chemist to perform method development from
'scratch', whether it relates to Karl-Fischer titrimetry, polarimetry, hplc,
tlc or infra-red spectrometry, it would make sense to seriously consider my
strong background in organic chemistry and practical experience in quality
control of pharmaceutical raw materials. There is no pretense here of being
familiar with every facet of instrumentation or resolution of mechanical
problems related to equipment malfunction. Instead, you can
expect a thorough and systematic investigation of the problem or intelligent
following of methods and procedures which need to be followed as in the
quality control of pharmaceutical raw materials in accordance with the US
Pharmacopeia.
Do you need to accomplish any of the following ? Please do not
hesitate to send an inquiry by
e-mail.
> Routine quality control of pharmaceutical raw materials and tablets.
> Methods of improving dug degradation, particularly steroids.
> Failure of a method from the literature, pertaining to hplc.
> Establishing a polarimetric method (not polarographic method).
Compensation is negotiable and definitely less than $90k/year which
a doctoral scientist would expect. As a matter of fact, you would
not incur more than $3k/month, if you hired me as an off-site consultant.
The fee depends on the problem.
