    ABSTRACT
    Water is widely used as a raw material, ingredient, and solvent in the processing, formulation, and manufacture of pharmaceutical products, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates, compendial articles, and analytical reagents. This review discusses, primarily from a microbiological aspect, the review and evaluation of high purity water systems that are used for the manufacture of drug products and drug substances. It also includes a review of the design of the various types of systems and some of the problems that have been associated with these systems. As with other guides, it is not all-inclusive, but provides background and guidance for the review and evaluation of high purity water systems. The main objective of this review was to provide guidance to the industry on the pharmaceutical use of different grades of water in the manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients and medicinal products for human and veterinary use. This guidance is not intended to cover situations where, for example, medicinal products are prepared extemporaneously or where preparations are reconstituted or diluted with water prior to use by pharmacist (eg. Oral antibiotic mixtures) or in the case of veterinary products by the user (eg. Sheep dips).

    ABSTRACT
    The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of superdisintegrants on the dissolution properties of a poorly water-soluble drug from complexes prepared by kneading method. Ketoprofen was employed as a model drug. Solid dispersions prepared by kneading method exhibited higher dissolution rate and DE30 values in each case. Ketoprofen tablets were prepared by direct compression technique using microcrystalline cellulose as a directly compressible vehicle. The formulated tablets were evaluated by different In Process Quality Control tests, content uniformity and in vitro drug release study. The FTIR spectra’s study revealed that there were no interaction between polymers and drug. All the tablets formulated employing solid dispersions in superdisintegrants gave rapid and higher dissolution of Ketoprofen when compared to that of Ketoprofen plain tablets. Ketoprofen dissolution from all the tablets followed first order kinetic with correlation coefficient ‘r’ above 0.9470. All dissolution parameters (k1, DE30 and T30) indicated rapid and higher dissolution of Ketoprofen from tablets formulated employing its solid dispersions in superdisintegrants when compared to plain tablets.
