This webinar describes the importance of and the key elements in a test method validation, including an understanding of its adequacy, range of detection, accuracy, the precision of measurements, and ultimately its robustness and reliability.
Poor test methods that have not been properly validated can cost your company tens of millions of dollars, besides your much costlier reputation. There was a case of this only recently, when a protein test method for heparin was not fully validated by a prominent drug manufacturer. The heparin was found too late to be contaminated with fatally toxic substances and had to be recalled, after many lives had been lost as a result.
Test method reliability, precision and accuracy are fundamental performance characteristics of analytical methods used in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries. Test Method Validation is thus critical to the design, development, production and release of pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Test methods that are inadequate, ineffective and incorrect can result in significant test errors that could affect product safety, effectiveness, purity, consistency and performance. This online training will guide you through the basics of avoiding such consequences.
