 Good Laboratory Practice is a quality system concerned
with the organizational process and the conditions under
which studies are
planned, performed, monitored, recorded, archived and
reported.

2

Quality:-
 The ability to consistently produce the same product
to meet the same specifications time after time!

 Stronger, purer, higher assay, or higher yield . . . is not
better!

3

 Quality Control :-

 The term quality control comprises of two
words :-Quality and Control.
 In terms of industrial language Control means
meeting with standards .
 Quality Control includes activities like;
sampling, testing, setting specification, organizing
Q.C. function, documentation and releasing
product for sale etc.

 Inspection in context with pharmaceutical
industry, include physical, chemical & biological
examination of materials to judge whether a material
is defective or non-defective by comparing the result of
test carried out with the predetermined quality
criteria.

6

A) According to no. of items inspected
B) According to stage in the product flow
C) According to whether items are usable or not
D) According to inspection location

A) According to no. of items inspected
1.100% inspection
2.Sampling inspection
3.Check inspection
4.Zero inspection
7

B) According to stage in the product flow
1.Incoming inspection
2.Intermediate inspection
3.Product inspection
4.pre-delivery inspection
5.Stock inspection
6.Audit inspection
7.Inspection by third party

8

C) According to whether items are usable or not
1.Destructrive inspection
2.Non-destructrive inspection

D) According to inspection location
1.Centralized inspection
2.Roving inspection

 Sampling in other words is sampling inspection.
Where the test is of destructive in
nature, sampling inspection is inevitable. Even if
the test is not destructive, sampling inspection is
likely to be better because of inspection fatigue in
100% inspection.
 It is carried out at many stages:
- incoming materials
- Material under process
- Finished product
10

 Types of sampling plans:
A) Single sampling plan:
B) Double sampling plan:
In the sampling plan, initial sample usually, smaller in size
is drawn and a decision to accept or reject is taken on the
basis of this smaller sample.
If the result of the first sample are not decisive a second
sample is taken and the decision is taken on the basis of
combined result of two samples.
Eg. Content uniformity test in tablets.
C) Multiple sampling plan:

11

 The sampling procedures should take account of
homogeneity and uniformity of the material.
 Homogeneous- from the same origin
 Uniform- drawn from different layers do not
show significant difference in the measurements
performed.

12

 Characteristics of container :-
- It should not react with the sampled material nor it
should allow contamination,
- It should protect the sample from light, air, moisture.
 If sample is in a single container, it should be labeled
as….
- the product (batch no./lot no.),
- The consignment from which the sample was drawn,
- The size of the sample,
- The date & place of sampling,
- Name of the person who sampled should be recorded.
13

 Stability testing done in order to find how long the
drug products are expected to remain within the
specification under recommended storage form.
 QCL should ascertain the hazards that are associated
with the drug product such as sub potency, physical
instability or the effect of degraded products to the
consumer

14

 Major contributors to loss of life & property in lab. are
fires & explosions
 Study of National Fire Protection Association is
revealing :-
 67% fires are
- electric equipment (21%)
- misuse of flammable liquid (20%)
- explosion & miscellaneous (13%)
- gas (7%)
- spontaneous ignition

18

 The management should ensure that The principals of
QCL are complied with,

1. A sufficient number of qualified personnel, appropriate
facilities, equipment and materials are available
2. Records of qualifications, job descriptions, training and
experience of personnel are maintained
3. Personnel understand the functions they are to perform
19

followed
 A Study Director and a Principal Investigator, if
needed, is designated
 Documented approval of the study plan

intended purpose
20

 Has the responsibility for the overall performance of
the study and the final report
 Approves the study plan and amendments and
communicate them to the QA personnel
 Ensures that SOP’s, study plans and their
amendments are available to study personnel
 Ensures that the SOP’s are followed, assess the
impact of any deviations and takes appropriate
corrective and preventive action
21

 Ensures that
 Raw data are documented and recorded

28

 Quality of any pharmaceutical product in particular in
greatly influenced by routine control at quality control
laboratory.
 Improper routine controls may affect the final drug
product.
 Normally practiced routine control includes :-
1. The lab and instrument should be cleaned daily.
2. The day works should be labelled neatly.
3. All the instruments are to be validated and checked
and the results rate to be recorded.
4. The samples with arrived at lab should be noted in
incoming register and they should be taken to test.
29

5. The humidity and temperature of the lab should be
recorded daily.
6. Log book should be filled correctly and properly for
the instruments used in the test.
7. The results of the tests are recorded and filled
according to report number.
8. The control samples are registered and maintained
properly these registers are maintained till their
expiry date.
9. Any fault in instruments or equipments should be
immediately notified to the quality control manager
10. Any complaints arise from the samples should be
properly take care off there samples should be tested
with reference to the controls.
30

 Verification is a quality control process that is used to
evaluate whether a product, service, or system
complies with regulations, specifications, or
conditions imposed at the start of a development
phase.
 Verification can be in development, scale-up, or
production. This is often an internal process.
 Validation is a quality assurance process of
establishing evidence that provides a high degree of
assurance that a product, service, or system
accomplishes its intended requirements. This is often
an external process.
31

Calibration
 The set of operations that establish, under specified
conditions, the relationship between values indicated
by an instrument or system for measuring (especially
weighing), recording and controlling, or the values
represented by a material measure, and the
corresponding known values of a reference standard.
Equipment qualification
 The action of proving that any equipment works
correctly and actually leads to accurate and reliable
results.
