Test Your Knowledge of PCR Applications
PCR testing continues to be in the spotlight as a reliable way of screening for COVID-19 and other viruses in patients. Its amplification process enables it to detect small portions of genetic material in these viruses. But PCR can be also used for a broad range of additional applications.

ISSUE NO. 27 — The Complexities of Early-Phase Ophthalmic Drug Development
Ophthalmic medications have a particular set of challenges that can impact their speedy and successful path to market. From prototype formulation through preclinical testing, early-phase clinical and manufacturing and development, ophthalmic drug development presents with specific and unique complexities. It is best to entrust drug development to a partner with regulatory knowledge, technical expertise, and a thorough understanding of the market in this growing therapeutic area. From current reality to future trends, being at the forefront of ophthalmic drug development delivers tangible benefits to sponsors.
In Issue 27 of The Altascientist, we dive into all areas of ophthalmic drug development, including:
- Prototype development, formulation, and manufacturing
- Preparing for first-in-human studies
- Species and strain selection parameters
- Routes of administration
- Specialized ocular assessments and equipment
- bioanalysis
- Phase I clinical research
- Phase II to commercialization
Three case studies are also included!
