Abstract
Most correlation analysis studies of drugs are concerned with the corr elation of in-vivo or in-vitro biological activity with physicochemica l or structural molecular parameters. However, it is also important to be able to predict such properties as solubility, melting and boiling points, adsorption behaviour, stability to degradation, viscosity, su rface tension and dissolution behaviour, particularly for formulation purposes. This paper reviews the published research in each of these a reas, and makes recommendations for further work.
