Part of the Cleaning Validation for the 21st Century series
Rapid water vapor determination with an optical method could replace the slow destructive traditional methods for the moisture analysis of freeze-dried product. A description of industry applications of headspace moisture analysis including freeze drying cycle optimization, lyo chamber moisture distribution mapping, and 100% moisture inspection of commercial freeze-dried product.
A vaccine-focused biotechnology company approached LIGHTHOUSE to help investigate a phenomenon observed in liquid vaccine product stored at -80°C. During QC testing, a number of vials were found to have an overpressure. This phenomenon represented a serious safety risk and LIGHTHOUSE was asked to support an investigation to identify the root cause.
Gain insight into the process, ensure the maintenance of sterility for finished product after capping, and meet current regulatory guidance using laser-based headspace inspection.
Using checkweighers for 100% inline product control of bottles, jars and tubes.
Innovative companies are now applying industry-specific Smart Manufacturing solutions to reduce time to value and improve efficiency and asset utilization while ensuring product and data integrity, regulatory compliance and safety.
As science-based organizations look to leverage the internet of things (IoT) within the laboratory, careful consideration must be given to available technologies, data formats, and platforms.
