Sep 2006- Dec 2008 Jaber Pharmaceutical Company

Scientist Tehran, Iran

Developed and validated HPLC and GC methods according to USP (United States Pharmacopeia) for

starting materials, raw materials, intermediates and drug substance in Jaber pharmaceutical company

located in Karaj-Tehran-Iran. These methods would help to rigorous verification of pharmaceutical

ingredients in QC unit.

Accomplished research on developing a new project in the mentioned above pharmaceutical

company for inhaler production including both analysis of products and releasing documentation.

Cooperated with pharmacist colleagues in R & D unit to develop inhaler analysis methods, safety

assessment and documentation (Standard of Procedures, (SOP)) for routine qualitative and

quantitative analysis that would be used by QC colleagues at the end.

Trained systematically on GC-MS and HPLC during my work experience in pharmaceutical Co. and

PhD career. In addition, experienced in Particle Size Analyzers, Karl Fischer, Potentiometric and

Colorimetric Titrations, Residue on Ignition, Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), Ion Exchange

Chromatography, Capillary Electrophoresis (CE), and FTIR, UV, Fluorescence, IR and ATR-IR,

Fluorescence microscopy and NMR analysis.
