QUALITY CONTROL TESTS
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
QUALITY CONTROL
Quality control is define as a set of activities for ensuring quality in product. The activities focus on identifying defects in the actual product produce.
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
TEST FOR STERILITY
Sterility is defines as freedom from the presence of viable microorganism
Method A: Membrane Filtration
Method B: Direct Inoculation
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Fluid Thioglycollate Medium
Soyabean-casein Digest Medium
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
METHOD A:MEMBRANE FILTRATION
Membrane filter (0.45 μ pore size)
Filter test solution
Remove filter
Cut filter into two halves
First halve second halve (for bacteria) (for fungi) Transfer to 100mL culture media Transfer to 100mL culture media (FTM) (SCDM) Incubate 30-35°C for NLT Incubate 20-25°C for NLT 7days 7days Observe the growth Observe the growth
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Aseptically opening each sample container
Using a sterile syringe or needle withdraw the required volume of sample
Aseptically transfer into both culture media
FTM SCDM Incubate 30-35°C for NLT 14 days Incubate 20-25°C for NLT 14 days
METHOD B:DIRECT INOCULATION METHOD

TEST FOR PYROGEN
Pyrogen is metabolic by product of living micro-organism/ dead micro-organism themselves.
METOHOD A: RABBIT TEST
OR SHAM TEST
METHOD B: LAL TEST OR BACTERIAL ENDOTOXIN
TEST
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
The test involves measurement of the rise in body temperature of rabbits in
presence of pyrogen introduced by the IV injection of a sterile solution into
ear vein of rabbit.
Use healthy, adult rabbits of either sex, preferably of the same variety.
•Having temp. variation high than 39.8°C.
•Showing temp. variation >0.2°C between 2 successive reading in the
determination of initial temp.
•Animal show temp. increase over 0.6°C should be remove from pyrogen
testing
METOHOD A: RABBIT TEST OR SHAM TEST
Principle
Test animals
Do not use any rabbit
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Carry out the test using a group of 3 rabbits.
•Preparation of the sample Dissolve the substance in or dilute with pyrogen free saline solution. Warm the liquid to approximately 38.5° before injection.
•Volume of injection NLT 0.5 mL/kg & NMT 10 mL/kg of body weight.
•Clinical thermometer inserted into rectum of rabbit to record body temp.
•Two normal reading or rectal temp. taken prior to test injection at an interval of half an hr. & it mean is calculated initial temp.
•Test solution injected into ear vein.
•Record temp. of each rabbit in time interval 30 min for 3 hrs.
•Different between initial & maximum temp. record & take as response.

Advantages of Rabbit Test
The human and rabbits are equally responsive to threshold levels of the pyrogens.
Disadvantages of Rabbit test
Based on animal model
Time consuming
Only detect presence of pyrogen not quantify them
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Measures the concentration of bacterial endotoxin
Test is using lysate derived from hemolymph cells or amebocytes of
e.g Limulus polyphemus
Endotoxin limit calculated by K/M
K maximum no. of endotoxin which receive the
patient without suffering toxic reaction
M maximum dose administered to a patient/kg/hr
horse shoe crab.
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Mechanism of LAL Test
The test is based on the primitive blood-clotting mechanism of the horseshoe crab.

PROCEDURE

Different Techniques
AGel-clot
Technique
B Turbidimetric
Technique
C Chromogenic
Technique
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
A. GEL CLOT TECHNIQUE
A solid gel is formed in the presence of endotoxins. Technique requires positive and negative controls.
Positive controls
A known concentration of endotoxin added to the lysate solution
Negative controls Water, free from endotoxins, added to the lysate solution
This is based on the measurement of color change which is caused by the release of the chromogenic chemical.
E.g. The quantity of the p-nitroanilide (chromogenic chemical) produced is directly proportional to the endotoxin concentration
B. CHROMOGENIC TECHNIQUE
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
The development of turbidity after cleavage of an endogenous substrate.
The test is based on the measurement of opacity change due to the formation of insoluble coagulin.
Opacity is directly proportional to the endotoxin concentration.
This technique is used for water systems and simple pharmaceutical
products.
C. TURBIDIMETRIC TECHNIQUE
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Advantages of LAL test
Alternative to animal model
Greater sensitivity
Less variability
Less time consuming
Detect the pyrogen and also measure the quantity of pyrogen

PARTICULATE MATTER TEST
Particulate matter refers to the extraneous, mobile, undissolved particles, other than gas bubbles, unintentionally present in the solutions.
METHODS
ALight Obstraction
Particle Count Test
BMicroscopic
Particle Count Test
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
Particular count is based upon either light scattering, light obstruction/ direct imaging.
Light blockage which allows an automatic determination of the size of particles and the number of particles according to size.
A. LIGHT OBSTRACTION PARTICLE COUNT TEST
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
TYPE PARTICLE SIZE
LVP Max. 50 Particles/mL ≥ 10 µm
Max 5 Particles/mL ≥ 25 µm
SVP NMT 10,000 Particles/Container ≥ 10 µm
NMT 1,000 Particles/Container ≥ 25 µm

LEAKAGE TEST
Test the package integrity.
Package integrity reflects its ability to keep the product in and to keep potential contamination out.
Leakage tests are 4 type
Visual Inspection Bubble Test Dye Tests Vacuum Ionization Test
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
UNIFORMITY OF WEIGHT
Remove the labels & wash the container & dry
Weigh the container along with content
Empty container completely
Rinse with water & ethanol, dry at 100°C to a constant weight
Cool & weigh
Net weight calculated
QC Of Sterile Pharmaceutical Product
All of the tests which are performed are essential and have its own importance in sterile production .
All of these tests ensure that product meet its quality which has been judged to satisfactory also.
Each test is unique and provides detailed assessment of quality control for parenteral products.
