INSIGHTS ON PHARMACEUTICAL INSPECTION

• Dual-Lane Checkweigher Provides High-Throughput Tube Line Automation Inspection

  Teligent produces a diverse range of generic prescription topical and injectable pharmaceuticals. To automate inspection on their high-throughput tube line, they turned to a checkweigher with a two-lane configuration that matches their dual-lane filler.

• The Introduction To High Voltage Leak Detection (HVLD) Technology

  It is understood that no matter how carefully a product has been prepared, it would still be unsafe for human use if the container has a pinhole, a crack or a defective seal. There are a variety of methods widely used in the detection of pinholes, cracks and defective seals in containers however a majority are destructive causing the loss of good product and packaging components. Read more to learn why the High Voltage Leak Detection (HVLD) system is totally free from these shortcomings and has additional advantages for ensuring seal integrity.

• The Importance Of Package Integrity To Shelf Life Of Products

  The importance of Package integrity as it relates to protecting a product’s shelf life from manufacturing, through transportation to the consumer or patient. This video will discuss the importance of protecting package contents from critical contaminants – namely oxygen, moisture and bacteria. The challenges associated with transportation will be reviewed and specifically how altitude and latitude affect various packaging formats when packaging defects are present.

• The Importance Of Package Integrity To Shelf Life Of Products

  Pharma Tech Industries (PTI), a contract manufacturer and packer of pharmaceuticals, medical devices and personal care products, is focused on exceeding customers’ expectations. They rely on x-ray, metal detection systems and checkweighers to consistently achieve their high quality standards

• A Science-Based Approach For Ensuring Container Closure Integrity Of Sterile Vials

  Recent regulatory guidance has triggered changes in industry best practices in the area of container closure integrity (CCI) testing. A more science-based holistic approach that includes robust design & qualification of the process and the implementation of appropriate process controls is required. This webinar will describe a framework to enable such a holistic approach to CCI that assures both the primary packaging and the process contribute to good CCI of sterile injectable vial product.

• Automated Inspection System For CCIT Of Parenteral Drug Products: Veripac LPX

  The VeriPac LPX from PTI is the next generation automated inspection system for container closure integrity testing of parenteral products. This product features automated CCI for prefilled syringes and vials using PTI’s vacuum decay technology.  The VeriPac LPX features a dynamic design tailored to fit your production requirements.

• Generating Robust Residual Seal Force-CCI Correlation Data To Ensure CCI Of Vials Requiring Deep Cold Storage

  The increased implementation of deterministic analytical methods for container closure integrity (CCI) testing has enabled deeper insight into the performance of primary packaging with respect to CCI. However, ensuring good CCI of sterile injectable product goes beyond CCI testing during the product life cycle. This case study describes how packaging development and process study data of a pharmaceutical vial product requiring deep cold storage can be combined in a holistic approach.

• Oxygen Sensitive Product: Comparing Oxygen Testing Methods

  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.

• Inline Weighing Technology Offers Additional Quality Check Features

  Protina Pharmazeutische GmbH produces high-quality preparations, such as medicine, food supplements and cosmetics. Alongside weight monitoring, the checkweigher used at Protina offers other important functions that support the company's system of strict quality management.
