GLP

The document discusses Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) which ensures that test data submitted is accurate and traceable, and promotes international acceptance of tests. GLP applies to testing of industrial chemicals, feed additives, pesticides, and other products. It establishes requirements for test facility management, documentation, equipment calibration and maintenance, sample handling, and record keeping.

Why need GLP?


1. GLP makes sure that the data submitted are a true reflection of the results that are obtained during the study. 2. GLP also makes sure that data is traceable. 3. GLP promotes international acceptance of tests.

Scope
Categories of test item: 1) industrial chemicals 2) feed additives 3) pesticides 4) biotechnology (non-pharmaceuticals) 5) others

Type of studies/area of expertise on test item: 1) physical-chemical testing 2) toxicity studies 3) mutagenicity studies 4) environmental toxicity studies on aquatic and terrestrial organisms 5) studies on behavior in water, soil and air; bioaccumulation 6) residue studies 7) studies on effects on mesocosms and natural ecosystems 8) analytical and clinical chemistry testing 9) others

Requirements
- Test Facility Management (Project Manager) - Study Director - Quality Assurance Unit (few people or one individual) - GLP manual - Recent organization charts - Floor plans with GLP marked area - Proper documentation of the entire SOPs including: a) Test and reference item b) Apparatus, material and reagent c) Report keeping, reporting, storage and retrieval d) Test system e) Quality assurance procedures - Proper calibration and maintenance of all the equipment and instruments - Proper labeling of all the samples, reagents, solvents and etc. - Proper storage of all the test items - Proper record of all the raw data - Labeling of all the samples, reagents, solvents and etc. - Proper filing of hand-written and computerized data labeling of all the samples, reagents, solvents and etc.

Importance of GLP
- To ensure the generation of high quality and reliable test data related to the safety of industrial chemical substances. - To assure the quality and integrity of the data generated and allows the data to be used with confidence by relevant Regulatory Authorities and users.
