On-line Audio Seminar 239
Qualification and
Calibration of Stability Chambers
Learn how to select,
conduct and document the right test parameters and conditions
March 31, 2010

Well performing stability chambers are most important to
reliably predict shelf life specifications of drugs at different environmental
conditions on the way from manufacturing to patients. FDA and international
agencies expect stability chambers to be qualified and calibrate to ensure
proper performance when newly installed and over the length of a stability
study. Even though this is well known since long time, laboratories are unsure
on what exactly should be tested initially and on an on-going basis.
Key Questions related to qualification and calibration of
stability chambers are:
- What does FDA say about stability changer
qualification?
- What exactly are the expectations of
inspectors?
- What is the difference between
calibration, qualification and testing?
- Which parameters should be tested and
what are the acceptance criteria?
- Should we test parameters over the entire
range, or is it enough to test at one point?
- When and how much should we re-qualify,
e.g., after repair, or after instrument move?
- Who can or should test stability
chambers, the vendor, user, 3rd party?
- What to test after changes, e.g., when
the equipment is moved, repaired or updated?
- Which documentation should be available
for inspectors?
How does the audio seminar help:
Answers will be presented by Dr. Ludwig Huber
in a new interactive audio seminar. During the seminar, the speaker
will present strategies and an overview and give practical
recommendations. After the seminar, an extensive list of reference
material like SOPs, test scripts, templates and examples will help
immediate and cost effective implementation..
During the interactive presentation you learn
about:
- FDA and equivalent international
requirements
- Examples for recent 483s and Warning
Letters
- Selection and qualification model: ASTM
E2500, USP <1058>, V- or, 4-Q models
- Calibration/qualification phases: design
qualification, specifications, installation & operational
qualification/verification testing, on-going performance
qualification
- Selecting parameters and acceptance
limits for stability chambers testing
- Requalification after equipment changes
(move, repair, firmware upgrade, hardware upgrade)
- Documentation requirements
- Common pitfalls
- Sharing best practices
- Most frequently asked questions
