Package Inspection White Papers & Case Studies

  1. How To Properly Test Your Industrial Metal Detector 2/7/2019

    In this paper, we explain the differences between validation, verification and routine performance monitoring and give an overview of recommended test methods for different metal detection systems.

  2. The Importance Of Package Integrity To Shelf Life Of Products 6/9/2020

    Pharma Tech Industries, a contract manufacturer and packer of pharmaceuticals and medical devices relies on x-ray, metal detection systems, and checkweighers to achieve their high quality standards

  3. In-Process Monitoring Of Headspace Oxygen Levels In Parenteral Containers 12/27/2018

    Using a high sensitivity detection technique known as Frequency Modulation Spectroscopy (FMS), LIGHTHOUSE rapid non-destructive headspace oxygen inspection can help streamline the monitoring of purge performance on the filling line. This paper demonstrates the correlation of the FMS rapid non-destructive technique for analyzing headspace oxygen levels with the most commonly used conventional destructive techniques for headspace oxygen inspection.

  4. Less Unnecessary Rejects Thanks To Automated Inspection 2/24/2022

    Pharmaceutical manufacturer CDM Lavoisier fully automates its inspection process for injectable glass ampoules allowing it to remove manual inspection steps.

  5. Gene Therapy: Maintaining Sterility At Low Temperature Storage

    A gene therapy for pediatric Spinal Muscular Atrophy required a leak and break-resistant container which maintains sterility over product shelf life, through freeze and defrost cycles.

  6. Container Closure Integrity Testing For Prefilled Syringes

    In this article, we highlight our current thinking in an attempt to devise a systematic approach for CCI testing method selection, development, and validation.

  7. Digital Transformation In Regulatory: Achieving Excellence Virtually 1/24/2022

    As the industry looks forward, key decisionmakers in pharma and biotech companies were surveyed to assess their views on undertaking regulatory processes virtually.

  8. Oxygen Sensitive Product: Comparing Oxygen Testing Methods 3/7/2021

    The accurate determination of oxygen concentration as a critical quality parameter for oxygen-sensitive products is important across the product life cycle activities. Traditional methods for determining headspace oxygen levels in parenteral containers, such as electrochemical methods or gas chromatography, are slow and destructive. This article describes several case studies comparing non-destructive laser-based oxygen headspace analysis with electrochemical oxygen analysis and gas chromatography.
