Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients
From Environmental Laboratories - Industrial Hygiene - Pharmaceutical Industrial Hygiene
What are APIS and should I Be Concerned about Them? Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are defined as any substance or a mixture of substances that when used in the production of a drug, becomes an active ingredient in the drug product. Unlike most chemical hazards in the workplace for which health effects upon exposure are incidental, the purpose of an API is to have the maximum biological effect, typically with the lowest dose possible (potency). Therefore, monitoring, assessment and control of employee exposure to potent APIs is a significant concern in any operation handling these types of materials.
