Pharmaceutical Analytical Chemistry 2 Course- Level 1

Bridging Theory and Practice: Pharmaceutical Analytical Chemistry

Students Apply Complexometric Titration Techniques in Real-World
Pharmaceutical Analysis

In a pioneering educational initiative, the Faculty of Pharmacy, Mansoura National University,
has introduced an innovative practical activity within the Pharmaceutical Analytical Chemistry 2
(PC 203) course, transforming traditional laboratory exercises into a dynamic, research-oriented
learning experience. This activity focused on bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and
real-world pharmaceutical applications, preparing students for careers in regulatory science,
pharmaceutical manufacturing, and quality assurance. Students engaged in an activity designed to
simulate industrial analytical procedures. The core focus was on complexometric titrations, a
crucial analytical method for determining metal ion concentrations in pharmaceutical preparations
using agents like EDTA.

This activity transcended conventional laboratory work, immersing students in a realistic
pharmaceutical analysis workflow. It highlighted the critical importance of global pharmacopoeias
in ensuring drug safety and efficacy while enhancing students' readiness for industrial and
regulatory roles. The project embodies the university’s vision of fostering career-ready
pharmacists, capable of addressing modern pharmaceutical challenges through a blend of
academic rigor and practical expertise.
