<p>Dear friends and readers, with a great sense of excitement, I inform you that your favourite magazine Microbioz India has completed three years of beautiful journey which became possible all because of your extreme love, support and encouragement all through these years.</p> <p>So, with gratitude in heart for all the support and your presence, I hereby present yet another issue of Microbioz India.</p> <p>It is a &ldquo;Pharma Special Issue&rdquo; which is supported by the cover story titled &lsquo;Risk assessment and pharmaceutical processing hazards&rsquo; authored by Dr. Tim Sandle.</p> <p>The article focusses on some of the main hazards to pharmaceutical manufacturing and provides a basis for assessing risks. Because, even though the pharmaceutical medicines are considered to be efficacious and safe for consumption as they are licenced and directed by practitioner, still there is always a chance of expected manufacturing problems.</p>
