Nowadays harmonization of sanitary and hygienic standards of environmental quality with international standards is crucial part of integration of Russia into the international community. Harmonization of Russian and international ambient air quality standards may be realized by risk-based standards development. In this paper approaches to risk-based standards development and examples of these a...

nowadays, harmonization of regulations regarding the sanitary and phytosanitary measures and its advantages and disadvantages is one of the most controversial issues in international trade law. this issue has gain much attention, in particular, after adoption of the wto's agreement on the application of sanitary and phytosanitary measures (sps agreement) and its emphasis on harmonization of san...

Harmonization of clinical laboratory results means that results are comparable irrespective of the measurement procedure used and where or when a measurement was made. Harmonization of test results includes consideration of pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical aspects. Progress has been made in each of these aspects, but there is currently poor coordination of the effort among differ...

The origins of safety pharmacology are grounded upon observations that organ functions (like organ structures) can be toxicological targets in humans exposed to novel therapeutic agents, and that drug effects on organ functions (unlike organ structures) are not readily detected by standard toxicological testing. Safety pharmacology is " em leader those studies that investigate the potential und...

a simple, sensitive, accurate and precise simultaneous uv spectrophotometric method has been developed for the estimation of carisoprodol, paracetamol and caffeine in tablet dosage form. the absorption maxima of the drugs were found to be 221, 248 and 273 nm for carisoprodol, paracetamol and caffeine respectively, in methanol, using a double beam uv/visible spectrophotometer. carisoprodol, para...

BACKGROUND The need for equivalent results of routine measurement procedures for the alcohol biomarker carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) has been recognized by the IFCC. This article describes a project to harmonize CDT as conducted by an IFCC working group initiated for this purpose. METHODS We used procedures for achieving harmonization as developed by the Consortium for Harmonizatio...

Evidence of the acute lack of interchangeable laboratory results and consensus in current practice among clinical laboratories has underpinned greater attention to standardization and harmonization projects. Although the focus is mainly on the standardization of measurement procedures, the scope of harmonization goes beyond method and analytical results: it includes all other aspects of laborat...
