Technology
- Container Closure Integrity Testing is a non-destructive measurement technology based on the following testing methods:
- Vacuum Decay Method
- Pressure Decay Method
- Measurement system comprises applying a pressure differential into an airtight testing group enclosing the container.
- The test objective is to detect container leakages by measuring the reached pressure level as well as the pressure change over test time.
- Lid deflection technology can also be implemented to detect leaks on foils of cups or pouches together with Vacuum Decay method.
Quality Assurance
- Equipment test method refers to:
- FDA 21 CFR part 11 as well as EMA Annex 11
- United States Pharmacopoeia – USP General Chapter «1207» “Packaging Integrity Evaluation”
- EU Guidelines to GMPMedicinal Products for Human and Veterinary Use –Annex 1 “Manufacture of Sterile Medicinal Products”
