The proposed research is focused on the specific needs of Australian and global pharmaceutical industries, and addresses a problem which is becoming increasingly significant with new classes of pharmaceuticals. Successful achievement of the goals of the project will result in major savings of cost and time during drug development and will lead to the production of safer drugs. The project will expand collaboration between Australia researchers and the world's largest pharmaceutical company. Specialised training will be provided to both postdoctoral and postgraduate researchers, positioning them to make strong contributions to Australia's growing pharmaceutical industry.Read moreRead less
Rapid method development in pharmaceutical analysis using quality-by-design principles. Chemical analysis using separation methods underpins all stages of drug design and analysis. This project will generate new approaches to greatly reduce the time taken to develop a new method of analysis. This will be achieved through development of new computerised techniques for rapid screening, selection and optimisation of analytical methods.
Highly integrated miniaturised total analysis systems for pharmaceuticals in biological and environmental samples. This project will develop three unique chemical approaches that will each overcome a challenge to the creation of advanced miniaturised analytical devices with sample-in/answer-out capability. This will provide substantial improvements in speed, cost, portability, and operational simplicity and safety. New technology for analysing drugs in body fluids will be critical to enabling pe ....Highly integrated miniaturised total analysis systems for pharmaceuticals in biological and environmental samples. This project will develop three unique chemical approaches that will each overcome a challenge to the creation of advanced miniaturised analytical devices with sample-in/answer-out capability. This will provide substantial improvements in speed, cost, portability, and operational simplicity and safety. New technology for analysing drugs in body fluids will be critical to enabling people to closely match their pharmaceutical consumption with their individual requirements. The advance will have implications for all patients, particularly those in remote and rural Australian populations. The same technology is likely to find applications in environmental monitoring of emerging pharmaceutical pollutants. Read moreRead less

Summary
A new generation fast mapping Raman system. This fast-imaging Raman facility will give researchers at the University of Tasmania a new tool to rapidly analyse the chemical properties of a wide range of materials in a non destructive way. It will complement other instrumentation and support a diverse range of research areas addressing several national research priorities.
