Quality Assurance01:19

Quality Assurance

3.9K
Quality assurance is the overarching term used to describe the activities employed to ensure the proper performance of a system. These activities can be classified into three categories: quality control, quality assessment, and internal corrective measures. Typically, these activities work cyclically: quality control is performed before and during the analysis, while quality assessment occurs during and after the investigation. Internal corrective measures are implemented based on the findings...

Quality Control01:05

Quality Control

4.2K
Quality control is one of the three cyclical quality assurance activities that help keep a system under statistical control. Typical quality control activities include creating quality control charts, conducting proficiency testing, and documenting and archiving results.
Quality control helps track data, visualize trends, and identify variations, making it easier to detect deviations that may affect the accuracy of an analysis. One way to do this is by generating a quality control chart, which...

Drug Dissolution: Requirements and Profile Comparison

434
The acceptance criteria for dissolution profile data are anchored in Q values, representing the percentage of drug dissolved within a specified period. This assessment unfolds in three stages:First Stage: The test passes if all six drug dosage units are equal to or greater than Q plus 5%; otherwise, the sample proceeds to the second stage.Second Stage: The average of twelve units must be equal to or greater than Q, with no unit falling below Q - 15% to pass; if not, it progresses to the final...

Biopharmaceutical Factors Influencing Drug Product Design: Overview

498
Rational drug product design integrates knowledge of the drug’s physicochemical properties, formulation components, manufacturing techniques, and intended route of administration. Each factor influences the drug’s performance, including how it is released, absorbed, and eliminated in the body.The physicochemical properties of a drug—such as solubility, stability, and particle size—affect its compatibility with excipients and the choice of dosage form. Excipients, though...

In Vitro Drug Release Testing: Overview, Development and Validation

549
In vitro dissolution and drug release tests assess how quickly and how much of a drug is released from its dosage form into an aqueous medium under standardized laboratory conditions. These tests are essential tools in pharmaceutical development and quality assurance, offering insight into the drug's performance before clinical use.During formulation development, dissolution testing identifies incomplete or inconsistent drug release issues. It also supports decisions on selecting the optimal...

Design Consideration01:22

Design Consideration

642
Designing a structure involves a series of considerations, primarily the material's ultimate strength, calculated through tests that measure changes under increased force until the material reaches its breaking point or limit. The ultimate load, where the material breaks, is divided by its original cross-sectional area, resulting in the ultimate normal stress or strength. The ultimate shearing stress is another significant factor taken into account.
The factor of safety is another key...

Area of Science:

  • Software Engineering
  • API Quality Management
  • Non-Functional Requirements

Background:

  • Modern software relies on APIs for interoperability, making API quality crucial.
  • Current standards inadequately address Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) in API development, leading to project issues.
  • Existing frameworks like OpenAPI Specification focus on functional aspects, while ISO/IEC 25010:2023 emphasizes traditional software quality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel Non-Functional Requirement Quality Framework for APIs (NFRQF-API).
  • To align with ISO/IEC 25010 standards by incorporating key NFRs and their influencing factors.
  • To facilitate the development of high-quality APIs through effective NFR management.

Main Methods:

  • An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was employed.
  • Data collection involved a survey with Likert-scale and open-ended items.
  • Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and reliability testing; qualitative data underwent thematic analysis.

Main Results:

  • The proposed NFRQF-API framework was evaluated for conceptual feasibility and applicability through expert surveys.
  • Analysis demonstrated the framework's potential effectiveness in managing Core, Critical, and Contextual NFRs.
  • The framework provides KPI-based quality standards for API development.

Conclusions:

  • The study bridges the gap between existing quality models and API quality assurance challenges.
  • The expert-refined framework enhances API quality management by addressing critical NFR issues.
  • NFRQF-API offers a structured approach for designing high-quality APIs.
