Evaluation methodology

It should be mentioned that the Food Additives Analytical Manual (FAAM) [75] provides analysts with FDA evaluated methodology (partly subjected to collaborative study) needed to determine compliance with food additive regulations, including procedures for indirect food additives, such as butylated hydroxy-anisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), t-butylhydroxyquinone (TBHQ), dilaurylthiopropionate (DLTDP), fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), sodium benzoate, sorbitol, and others. 

Change Early means identification of hazards as early as possible in the process design. The payback for early hazard identification can make or break the capital budget of a new process. This can be achieved by dedicated safety evaluation methodologies which are designed for preliminary process design purposes. 

Phase II examined the leaching characteristics of C R materials, full development of a predictive model, and the validation of the overall evaluation methodology. Validation of the methodology was achieved by evaluating a number of C R materials and by broadening the evaluation criteria to include leaching kinetics, reference environments, and impact interpretation. 

The evaluation methodology depends on demand of results Are only Yes/No answers needed or semiquantitive statements ( strong - medium - weak ), or are reliable values necessary To get the first two types of results you have only to choose the right assay protocol and measuring range. For quantitative evaluations often more points of view have to be considered, e.g., rules of statistics. (Some statistic parameters are given in Chap. 9.)... 

The ensemble approach should also be further investigated as a way to improve PM estimates. The Air Quality Model Evaluation International Initiative (AQMEII—http //aqmeii.jrc.ec.europa.eu/aqmeii2.html) is developing and testing innovative model evaluation methodologies, focusing on ensemble, to improve knowledge about relevant processes and to increase confidence in model performance for better support of policy development.

The evaluation methodology must be capable of providing statistically reliable results at the levels in which we are interested. The measurement processes that are used to obtain responses need to be robust in the sense that they are resistant to both determinate accidental and random perturbations. This requirement for robustness applies to the processes for producing, representatively sampling, and evaluating products, be they materials, processes or otherwise. 

One of the most exciting developments in sensory evaluation over the past decades has been the emergence and popularity of descriptive analysis or the use of highly trained panels to describe the sensory characteristics of foods. This is perhaps the most important development in sensory evaluation methodology. 

Despite this diversity, the alkaloids are still considered as reference standards for bitter taste in sensory evaluation methodologies caffeine and quinine solutions are used to train panelists to recognize the bitter taste and to give comparative evaluations of other bitter principles. This is obviously also due to the fact that these two alkaloids are among the most important for their use in food, not only as contaminants but as active principles selected for their taste profile and biological activity.

According to Royal Decree 561/93 (article 41), on the minimum requirements for the accreditation of an ethics commitee of clinical research, it is stated that at least one hospital pharmacist must belong necessarily to the commitee. In this way, clinical pharmacists are capable of evaluating methodological and logistical aspects of each protocol and are competent to consider the ethical issues of clinical trials. 

As a whole, the pharmacist s presence in ethics com-mitees allows the pharmacy service to solve practical problems related to the execution of the clinical trial, prior to the approval of the protocol. Moreover, by evaluating methodological aspects of protocols, the clinical pharmacist is asked to develop future protocols, linking with pharmacist s role as clinical researcher.
