When you take PDA’s 2015 Glass Quality, Visual Inspection And Foreign Material Identification Week, from September 14-18, you’ll learn best practices, identify applicable international regulatory and compendial requirements, operate different analytical tools for particle analysis and much more.

Choose from three important topics:

Identification and Classification of Nonconformities in Molded and Tubular Glass Containers for Pharmaceutical Manufacturing (September 14)

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to summarize current best practices for identification and classification of visual nonconformities, discuss the development and use of appropriate sampling plans in the quality decision-making process and explain the importance of the partnership between glass manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies.

An Introduction to Visual Inspection (September 15-16)

Covering the fundamentals of visual inspection and their application to injectable products, this course is a combination of lecture/discussion and hands-on laboratory exercises that will be used to develop and implement practical inspection skills. The skills developed through this course may be applied to both manual human and automated machine inspection.

Foreign Particulate Examination, Isolation and Analysis (September 17-18)

Through lecture and laboratory exercises, explore the advantages and disadvantages of three analytical approaches – polarized light microscopy, infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy for particulate analysis – and why using multiple complementary techniques is sometimes the best approach. How to handle and manipulate small particles will also be addressed.
