  "term": "Optimization",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The process of finding the best set of conditions or parameters for a chemical process or analytical method to achieve a desired outcome. This involves systematically varying experimental factors and observing their effect on a response variable. The goal is to maximize or minimize a specific performance criterion, such as yield, sensitivity, or resolution.",
