What is quality control
• Quality control (QC) is a procedure or set of procedures intended to ensure that a
manufactured product or performed service adheres to a defined set of quality
criteria or meets the requirements of the client or customer.
• QC is the part of GMP concerned with sampling, specifications and testing and
documentation which ensure that the necessary and relevant tests are actually
carried out and that materials are not released for use, nor products released for
sale or supply, until their quality has been judged to be compliant with the
requirements.
• All testing should be performed as per written and approved procedure. This can
be a monograph or a product specification. Results should be checked by the QC
manager/ designate before material or product is released or rejected
