Abstract: Green analytical chemistry (GAC) emphasizes the development of environmentally friendly, sustainable, and efficient analytical methodologies in pharmaceutical analysis. Traditional drug analysis often involves large quantities of hazardous solvents, generating substantial chemical waste. GAC approaches aim to reduce solvent usage, minimize energy consumption, and enhance analytical throughput without compromising accuracy or precision. Techniques such as microextraction, miniaturized chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with green solvents, and green spectroscopic methods have gained prominence. This paper provides an overview of GAC principles, sample preparation strategies, analytical tools, and applications in drug analysis. Integration of green methodologies ensures compliance with environmental regulations and supports sustainable pharmaceutical manufacturing. Implementation of GAC contributes to safe, efficient, and responsible drug analysis.
Keywords: Green Analytical Chemistry, Sustainable Drug Analysis, Microextraction, HPLC, Eco-Friendly Solvents, Pharmaceutical Quality Control, Green Spectroscopy
