Recent years have witnessed the introduction of several high-quality review articles into the literature covering various scientific and technical aspects of bioanalysis, including chirality aspects. Now it is widely accepted that bioanalysis is an integral part of the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic characterization of a novel chemical entity (NCE) from the time of its discovery and during various stages of drug development leading to its market authorization. There is a need for a comprehensive review article that takes into account the changing faces of bioanalysis from the time of inception of an NCE at the discovery stage and as the NCE moves forward in development. This review attempts to cover the versatility in the applicability of bioanalytical aspects with respect to the nature, rigor and available choices of analyses. For ease of understanding, bioanalytical aspects are discussed under sections covering discovery, preclinical and clinical stages. It is intended to give some general thoughts in this area which will form basis of a general framework as to how one would approach bioanalysis from inception (i.e. discovery of a lead molecule) and progressing through various stages of drug development.
