Overview

Visual inspection continues to be an important element of the manufacturing process and the quality assurance of injectable products. Product inspection provides necessary information for lot release, and, coupled with defect identification, contributes to a strategy of continuous process improvement. The meeting will provide a forum to present and discuss new developments in the field of visual inspection, including a basic understanding of the sampling and inspection process, validation of manual and automated methods and the regulatory and compendial requirements that govern them. Special attention will be given to specific inspection challenges of biopharmaceutical drugs e.g. turbid media as well as the differentiation between protein aggregates and foreign particles. This is an excellent opportunity to learn more about visual inspection and to discuss inspection challenges with the experts. We have provided time in the program for networking with the speakers and for discussion of your specific inspection challenges. As in past years, the meeting will feature an exhibition where attendees can see the latest in commercial inspection hardware and discuss production needs with key suppliers of inspection systems and services.
