摘要

In order to strengthen the Standards section at the National Institute of DrugQuality Control, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization engaged a consultant to visit the National Institute of Drug Quality Control in Hanoi, Vietnam. During September-November 1989, two pharmacists from the Institute were trained at the WHO Collaborating Centre in Stockholm, Sweden. Discussions on analysis of reference substances performed since the training were held and analytical results followed up for ampicillin trihydrate and tetracycline hydrochloride. The following report is based on observations made during the laboratory visit and on the discussions held with the laboratory staff. The report also includes a suggested plan for the implementation of the program and a list of recommendations to strengthen establishment and the analytical investigations of the standards.
