Description

1.0    PURPOSE:

1.1    To lay down the procedure for development and validation of analytical method for equipment cleaning.

2.0    SCOPE:

2.1    This procedure is applicable for Development and Validation of Analytical Method for equipment cleaning.

3.0    RESPONSIBILITY:

4.1    Senior Executive – QC 

4.0    ACCOUNTABILITY:

4.1    Manager - QC     

5.0    PROCEDURE:

5.1    Review the written cleaning procedure to determine what cleaning agents are used, such as water, alcohol, etc.
5.2    From information about the target analyte (least soluble active drug substance), determine what kind of analytical procedure will be used to measure any residual of the target analyte after cleaning.  As per following table.

ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUE SELECTION FOR CLEANING VALIDATIONS

Target Analyte

Method

Reason

UV-Visible active drug where no other components of the product are UV-Visible active

UV spectroscopy

  1. Sensitivity
  2. Selectivity because of knowledge of matrix

UV-active drug where other components of the product are UV active

HPLC

  1. Sensitivity, if the correct wavelength is chosen.
  2. Selectivity based on separation of analyte from matrix.

UV inactive drugs that are volatile or for which volatile derivatives can be prepared

GC

  1. Sensitivity if correct detector and detector parametes are chosen
  2. Selectivity if proper chromatography is employed

UV inactive drugs that are acidic or basic and for which UV, HPLC, AA and GC are not applicable

Titration

1.  Sensitivity if dilute enough titrants are used (0.001N or 0.001N)

 

 

 

 

5.3       Develop and validate the method of choice as per following table.
