Duration 90 Mins
Level Basic & Intermediate & Advanced
Webinar ID IQW20G0727

  • Qualitative approaches to identification
  • Selectivity of identification
  • The use of complementary data
  • Peak shape, peak purity, and retention time as validation
  • The importance of a standard reference or surrogate
  • On-going diligence

Overview of the webinar

In the development and approval process for new medicines and pharmaceuticals, 2 important tests focus on compounds of low concentrations – impurity and degradation product analyses. Analytically this means identifying these compounds and assessing their amounts. A variety of chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques can be used, often in combination. This webinar covers some example approaches and the validation issues that must be met and maintained.

Who should attend?

  • Lab Chemists
  • Lab Managers
  • Lab Technicians
  • Lab Analysts
  • Industries into Compliance Methodology (Biotech, Pharma)
  • Companies into Environmental Compliance or EPA

Why should you attend?

Identifying and quantitating minor components is mandatory. The use of an acceptable approach with its backing by validation and documentation ensures that these analyses will be acceptable. Reliance on corroborating data and the documentation to show this is the key.

  • To learn how to have a structured approach to minor component identifications that are the acceptable
  • Understanding the validation and documentation needs for the different approaches
  • The use of libraries versus manual data interpretation
  • Using the interconnection between data
  • Completing the cycle – checking that an identification is correct
  • On-going strategies
