APRACTICALAPPROACHFOR CLEANINGVALIDATION

ExcerptsfromguidelinesObjective
To avoid contamination of the following pharmaceutical product in the subsequently manufactured products.

ExcerptsfromguidelinesObjective
To design and carry cleaning in a way that contamination is reduced to an acceptable level.

ExcerptsfromguidelinesObjective
To have a documented evidence that an approved cleaning procedure will provide clean equipment.

ExcerptsfromguidelinesObjective
To confirm a reliable cleaning procedure so that the analytical monitoring may be omitted or reduced to a minimum in the routine phase.

AcceptancecriteriaPrinciples
The limits should be practical, achievable and verifiable. Grouping:
Product specific Cleaning Validation for all products, Grouping into product families and choosing a "worst case" product, Grouping into groups of risk (e.g. very soluble products, similar potency, highly toxic products, difficult to detect).

Acceptancecriteria
Carry-over of product residues should meet defined criteria, for example the most stringent of the following two criteria: Chemical
No more than 0.1% of the normal therapeutic dose of any product will appear in the maximum daily dose of the following product, No more than 10 ppm of any product will appear in another product,

Visual
No quantity of residue should be visible on the equipment after cleaning procedures are performed. 7

Accuracy Precision Limit of Detection Method Validation Limit of Quantitation Specificity/Selectivity Linearity Ruggedness/Robustness

10

Accuracy
Accuracy is the measure of exactness of an analytical method, or the closeness of agreement between the measured value and the value that is accepted as a conventional true value or an accepted reference value

11

Precision
The Precision of a method is the degree of agreement among individual test results, when the procedure is applied repeatedly to multiple samplings of a homogeneous sample

12

Limit of Detection
The lowest amount of analyte in a sample which can be detected but not quantitated as an exact value.
(The Limit of Detection is mostly a parameter of limit tests)

13

Limit of Quantitation
The lowest amount of analyte in a sample which can be quantitatively determined with defined precision and accuracy under the stated experimental conditions.

14

Specificity/Selectivity
The Specificity of a method defines the ability of the method to measure the analyte of interest to the exclusion of other relevant components. Selectivity describes the ability of an analytical method to differentiate various substances in a sample.

15

Linearity
The linearity of a method is its ability to elicit results that are directly, or by a well defined mathematical transformation, proportional to the concentration of analyte in the sample

16

Ruggedness/Robustness
Ruggedness is the of reproducibility of the test results obtained for identical samples under normal (but variable) test conditions. The Robustness of a procedure is a measure of its capacity to remain unaffected by small but deliberate variations in the method parameters and provides an indication of its reliability in normal usage.

17

Stability
Stability of swab solvent / rinse solvent
The stability of swab solvent or rinse solvent should be established (during its hold period) to prove that once swab/rinse is collected the active is stable till end of the analysis

18

Recovery
Recovery by swab / rinse
The recovery of active by swab/rinse method should be established (Generally accepted minimum recovery is 50%), and corrective factor should be considered for every result.

DirtyEquipmentHoldTime(DEHT)
The time from the end of manufacturing until the beginning of the cleaning process is called dirty Equipment Hold Time (DEHT)
Effects of DEHT: 4. Drying of dirt on surface of equipment 5. Microbial proliferation 6. Difficult removal of contaminant Generally accepted DEHT is 12 or 24 hours, where critical it shall be validated.

34

CleanEquipmentHoldTime(CEHT)
The time from the end of the cleaning process until the beginning of the use of the cleaned equipment for manufacture of the next product (CEHT)
Effects of CEHT: 3. Any equipment cannot stay clean for longer durations 4. The microbial proliferation from a source already present on surface 5. External contamination of microorganism 6. External contamination of other chemical entities Generally accepted CEHT is 24 to 72 hours, where ever critical it shall be validated.
