Precision Tools for Human Error Reduction
Human error is known to be the primary cause of quality and production losses in many industries. Although human error is unlikely to ever be eliminated, many human performance problems can be prevented. Human errors start at the design stage. From procedures, training, and workplace environment, many variables that affect human behavior CAN be managed,… Continue reading Precision Tools for Human Error Reduction
Read MoreEthylene Oxide: Product Adoption and Parametric Release
Ethylene Oxide (ETO) Sterilization is a critical process for medical devices, which might include pharmaceuticals and the food industry. Today, the challenge is to understand product adoption during material changes to simplify and have a more robust product validation process based on product families. Another benefit is to have a better understanding on Parametric Release… Continue reading Ethylene Oxide: Product Adoption and Parametric Release
Read MoreDeveloping and Optimizing of Roll Compacted Granulations for Tablets
Granulating is the most popular way to prepare materials for tableting. Many excipients and actives used in modern direct compression processes are granulated. The granulation process, using only pressure for particle size enlargement, is dry granulation (Roll compaction (RC)). The RC process, even though simple in principle, can be quite complex. Besides proper machine setup,… Continue reading Developing and Optimizing of Roll Compacted Granulations for Tablets
Read MoreManagement of Pharmaceutical Water in a GMP Environment
Knowledge of the microbiology of water in a GMP environment is critical to the health of any water system being used to produce a pharmaceutical or biotechnology product. Even companies manufacturing tablets need to be aware of the quality of the water that may be contacting their process or product. The well-being of a facility… Continue reading Management of Pharmaceutical Water in a GMP Environment
