Book excerpt: We are very pleased to put forth the revised edition of 'Laboratory Manual of Pharmaceutics'. We have incorporated all the suggestions, modified it to make it easier, student friendly and relevant in terms of achieving curriculum outcome. We are very much thankful to all the learned teachers who have given their feedback whole-heartedly. We have even incorporated the changes in this manual based on the feedback given by the teachers from all the institutes. Now, we believe that the manual has been fulfilling the aspirations of pharmaceutics teachers and students too. This manual is prepared as per PCI Education Regulations, 2020 for Diploma Course in Pharmacy. The procedures and formulas of all the experiments are reviewed and added, so that the advancement in the methods or apparatus can be addressed. This manual is designed for 'outcome-based education' and each experiment is arranged in a uniform way such as practical significance, practical outcomes (PrOs) and its mapping with course outcomes, minimum theoretical background, resources used, procedure, precautions, observations, result, conclusion, references and related questions. We have also given the readings for the reference of students and better understanding. Moreover, assessment scheme is also given to help the student and teacher to know what to be assessed. A sincere attempt has been made through this manual to provide practical knowledge to the students related to various topics of Pharmaceutics. The manual mainly includes the experiments through which the students will learn to prepare conventional dosage forms and few cosmetic formulations in the laboratory. Besides, experiments related to handling of Indian Pharmacopoeia and National formulary of India will make the students familiar with the Indian official compendiums. The demonstration based experiments will help the students to understand the tablet compression process and quality control test of tablets, capsules, emulsions and single-dose parenteral preparations. A brief introduction to various dosage forms before the related experiments can assist in better perception of the experiment. Each experiment is divided into sections like aim, practical significance, relevant professional competencies, relevant course outcomes, practical skills, relevant affective domain related outcomes, practical outcomes, minimum theoretical background, requirements, contents, marketed preparations, related questions, references and assessment scheme. The manual has been designed with more emphasis on the practical skill improvement of the students so that the students can perform the practical with ease and comfort. Hope this manual will help the students to learn the concept, principles and perform the experiments virtually. We wish you all the best!!!
