• CCI For Combination Products: Assembling The Package Integrity Profile For Autoinjectors

  Due to their complexity, combination products, specifically autoinjection systems, present unique challenges in implementing a container closure integrity (CCI) testing strategy. This is further complicated by a pervasive, though diminishing, tendency for companies to consider CCI only at the final product-package lifecycle stage, an approach where combination products will highlight the pitfalls.

• Contract Pharmacal Corporation Installs X-Ray Inspection And Checkweighers For Brand Protection And Quality

  CPC develops, manufacturers and packages premium pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter drugs and dietary supplements. Since five of their lines package product in a foil-laminated film, which disrupts traditional metal detector, they need to implement x-ray systems for those lines.

• Key Considerations For In-Line Checkweighing Of Packaged Products In Pharma

  Checkweighers used in pharmaceutical packaging need to achieve high levels of dynamic weighing accuracy. In addition to weighing accuracy, it is essential that any checkweigher, and its operating software, are suited for the unique regulatory environment under which pharmaceutical plants operate. Learn what system design and support considerations can help manufacturers select the correct system for use in a wider quality control regime.

• Test Method Development, Experimental Design And Positive Controls For Package Integrity

  Given that the experimental design has only two conditions, leaking and non-leaking, this variable is extremely important to understand. Proper use of  positive controls and knowledge of how alternative approaches are applied to challenge a test method support the validity and reliability of the method.

• Container Closure Integrity Testing: The Importance Of Sensitivity, Automation And Efficiency

  This article will explore the need for sensitive, reliable, and automated container closure integrity (CCI) testing technologies, and how existing deterministic solutions can help achieve optimum quality assurance goals in CCI for pharmaceutical manufacturers.

• Effects Of X-Ray Inspection On Pharmaceutical Products

  Some manufacturers still have reservations about adopting x-ray inspection as a safe method of product inspection. This white paper examines the potential effects of x-ray inspection on pharma products.

• Metal Detection System Improves Efficiency And Product Safety

  The AuditCheck metal detection verification performance system utilizes an automated test shuttle that moves through the metal detector’s field at user-specified points in time.
