Primary Packaging

GMP accredited labs check the quality of primary packaging containing drug products. The testing and qualification of plastic packaging systems and components for pharmaceutical use are covered in Plastic Packaging Systems for Pharmaceutical Use <661.2>. A plastic material of construction is deemed to be well-characterized for its intended use if the following characteristics have been adequately established: its identity, biocompatibility (biological reactivity), general physicochemical properties, and composition (i.e., additives and extractable metals likely to be present).

Spectrum Two FT-IR

The Spectrum Two FT-IR spectrometer delivers everything required to perform FT-IR analyses within regulated environments with complete confidence in the results. From rapid raw material identification to sensitive analysis of formulated products, the Spectrum Two system offers the best user experience without any compromise in analytical performance. With fully integrated, robust universal sampling for trouble-free measurements and portability options, this system is ideal for use in both laboratory and remote testing environments.

  • Dynascan Interferometer: Fixed mirror-pair interferometer design does not require dynamic alignment to compensate for errors
  • OpticsGuard Technology: A unique humidity shield design protects Spectrum Two from environmental effects
  • Atmospheric Vapor Compensation (AVC): Its advanced digital filtering algorithm feature is designed to compensate for CO2 and H2O absorptions in real time
  • Absolute Virtual Instrument (AVI): Standardization using gas phase spectra ensures your instruments are accurately calibrated
