Do preliminary data support that the product will work? Will the product do what the company claims? Can patent protection be secured? Can the company prevent other companies from producing it? Can the company make a profit on the product? How much will it cost to make it? How much can it be sold for?

Regulatory guidelines during the production of drugs and cosmetics, chemicals, and crops are written and overseen by agencies such as the

FDA, environmental protection agency (EPA) or US department of agriculture (USDA)

third step in sm

Plan valid experiment Numerical data, Multiple trials, 1 manipulated variable, Control groups can be (positive and negative)

Stages in development

Product identification: a product of interest is identified and evaluated for possible research and manufacturing Research and development: researchers develop the techniques to make new products such as genetically engineered proteins - bacteria is tricked to make human insulin Small scale manufacturing: increasingly larger volumes of product are made for testing and further experimentation Testing for safety and efficacy: a product is tested to make sure it is safe and effective. If the product is to be a pharmaceutical, it must undergo testing called clinical trials Manufacturing: manufacturing involves cell culture and product purification Sales and marketing: product is ready for distribution. Additional testing for other application is done For a pharmaceutical product, it must pass through Phase 3 clinical trials with thousands of patients included in testing before application with FDA for permission for more product to be produced
