Optimization Concept:
The term Optimize is defined as to make perfect , effective
, or as functional as possible.
2 05-04-2018
Optimization is used in pharmacy relative to
formulation and processing .
.
In development projects , one generally
experiments by a series of logical steps, carefully
controlling the variables & changing one at a
time, until a satisfactory system is obtained

Why is Optimization necessary?
Primary objective may not be to optimize absolutely but to compromise
effectively & thereby produce the best formulation under a given set of
restrictions .

Terms Used
o FACTOR: It is an assigned variable such as concentration , Temperature
etc..,
• Quantitative: Numerical factor assigned to it
Ex- Concentration- 1%, 2%,3% etc.
• Qualitative: Which are not numerical
Ex- Polymer grade, humidity condition etc.
o LEVELS: Levels of a factor are the values or designations assigned to
the factor.
o RESPONSE: It is an outcome of the experiment.
• It is the effect to evaluate.
Ex- Disintegration time.

Terms Used
o EFFECT: It is the change in response caused by
varying the levels
It gives the relationship between various factors
& levels.

Problem Types
Unconstrained
• In unconstrained optimization problems there are no restrictions.
• For a given pharmaceutical system one might wish to make the hardest
tablet possible.

Variables
• Independent variables : The independent variables are under the control of
the formulator. These might include the compression force or the die cavity
more the variables that are present in the system the more the

Example of Variables
15 05-04-2018
Once the relationship between the variable
and the response is known, it gives the
response surface as represented in the Fig. 1.
Surface is to be evaluated to get the
independent variables, X1 and X2, which
gave the response, Y. Any number of
variables can be considered, it is impossible
to represent graphically, but mathematically it
can be evaluated.

Factorial Design (FD)
Factorial experiment is an experiment whose
design consist of two or more factor each with
different possible values or “levels”.
FD technique introduced by “Fisher” in 1926.
Factorial design applied in optimization
techniques.
19 05-04-2018
FD is for the evaluation of multiple factors
simultaneously.
2 3 means 2 is level while 3 is factor .
Factorial Design is divided into two types
1. Full Factorial Design
2.Fractional factorial design

1.Full Factorial Design
22 05-04-2018
TWO Levels Full FD :
2 factors : X1 and X2 (Independent variables)
2 levels : Low and High
Coding : (-1) , (+1)
Three level Full FD :
In three level factorial design ,
• 3 factors: X1, X2 and X3
• 3 levels are use ,
1) low (-1)
2) intermediate (0)
3) high (+1)

Wow!
Balanced design
All factors occur and low and high levels
same number of times; Same for interactions
Columns are orthogonal. Projections …
Good statistical properties
Want to study 5 factors (1,2,3,4,5) using a 2^4 = 16-run design
i.e., construct half-fraction of a 2^5 design
= 2^{5-1} design
FRACTIONAL FACTORIAL
DESIGN
In Full FD , as a number of factor or level
increases , the number of experiment required
exceeds to unmanageable levels .
In such cases , the number of experiments can
be reduced systemically and resulting design is
called as Fractional factorial design (FFD).
Applied if no. of factor are more than 5 .
Means “less than full”
Levels combinations are chosen to provide
sufficient information to determine the factor
effect
More efficient

Types of Fractional Factorial
Design
Homogeneous fractional
Mixed level fractional
Plackett-Burman
Homogenous fractional
Useful when large number of factors must be
screened
Mixed level fractional
Useful when variety of factors need to be
evaluated for main effects and higher level
interactions can be assumed to be negligible.

Plackett-Burman
It is a popular class of screening design.
These designs are very efficient screening
designs when only the main effects are of
interest.
These are useful for detecting large main effects
economically ,assuming all interactions are
negligible when compared with important main
effects
