INSIGHTS ON PHARMACEUTICAL INSPECTION

PHARMACEUTICAL INSPECTION SOLUTIONS

  • Explore the wide range of pharmaceutical package applications that can be readily tested by PTI's CCIT Centers of Excellence, from glass and plastic vials to medical devices.

  • The pharmaceutical industry continues to lead industries in terms of quality requirements and the value of data. The shift to more automated processes is less about the cost of human capital, but more about the pursuit of quality. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) updated Annex 1, driving for 100% inspection on fused containers and appropriate quality test measures for applications based on level of risk. The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) revamped Chapter 1207 on container closure integrity (CCI) to be prescriptive of deterministic technologies and encourages a deeper understanding of a container’s CCI requirements. The FDA continues to drive a ‘quality culture’ agenda versus a ‘compliance culture’, and the FDA has been explicitly targeting data integrity as a campaign for assuring quality. Every regulatory and guidance body is driving towards more reliable and accurate test methods.

  • Pharmaceutical X-Ray inspection systems have the highest level of contaminant detection with the ability to find a wide range of non-metal and metal contaminants.

  • The Thermo Scientific Versa Rx checkweigher provides superior quality to meet the most demanding performance standards.

  • As part of Stevanato Group’s commitment to R&D, our analytical testing facilities focus on investigating physico-chemical properties of primary packaging materials and components and studying the interactions between container closure system and drugs. Stevanato Group relies on a multi-disciplinary team of highly skilled professionals, including, scientists, engineers, pharmaceutical chemists and biotechnologists. Their knowledge and experience covers a range of specialized areas including container closure systems and drug-delivery devices.
