Cleaning Validation

Validating the cleaning of the equipment used to manufacture pharmaceuticals is a critical part of a process validation checklist, as is equipment validation if you wish to ensure TGA compliance.

PharmOut offers a cleaning validation service, allowing you to outsource this time consuming task to experienced validation contractors.

You can have PharmOut staff assist you with any of the following tasks:

• Developing a cleaning validation plan and validation protocols for the equipment or reviewing existing documents
• Collecting the validation samples, using your cleaning validation sampling tools (yes, they LOVE dangling by their ankles into your mixing vessel! We even have extra thin people to fit in tight places.)
• Analysing samples, using your procedure, e.g. conductivity measurements, TOC analysis, HPLC analysis or another analytical method.

 

Fast Cleaning Validation Analysis

PharmOut's Kaye Validator or more correctly an Ion Trap Mobility Spectrometer (ITMS) considerably reduces cleaning validation analysis times by providing on-line identification of contaminants in samples.

A PharmOut Validation contractor can use this powerful portable instrument to really accelerate a cleaning validation job, minimising production downtime. Our trained contractors can develop a method for you, verify it, then collect and run the samples.

The Kaye Validator offers pico-gram detection levels and rapid sample analysis time (approx. 10-30 seconds) and is a solvent-independent alternative to HPLC and Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis.

The portability of the instrument means that samples can be run at the production line, removing the time needed to run samples to the lab.

With the reduction in production downtime and the low cost per analysis, the Kaye Validator service can quickly pay for itself.
