title: Summary of abbreviated impactor measurement workshop organized by the European Pharmaceutical Aerosol Group.
abstract: This year, the Drugs Delivery to the Lungs 21 conference broke new ground with the first half-day devoted to a workshop focusing on experimental aspects of the abbreviated impactor measurement concept. The workshop had the following objectives: to define what further needs to be done experimentally to establish abbreviated impactor measurement; and to identify the pathway towards adoption of existing methods into the pharmacopeias, as the next step towards what is hoped will eventually be acceptance by the key regulatory agencies in Europe, Canada and the USA.
