Visual Inspection Defects in Oral Solid Dosage Forms: Effective troubleshooting strategies
Extended Learning
Learning Level: Intermediate
Time: 1100 - 1200 EDT
Session Length: 1 hour
This webinar will offer an in-depth insights on mastering AQL and visual inspection defects in oral solid dosage forms, where we’ll equip you with the strategies and tools to ensure top-notch quality in your pharmaceutical production. Learn how to apply Acceptance Quality Limit (AQL) standards to determine defect thresholds and make informed decisions about batch quality. Dive into the identification and categorization of common visual defects in tablets and capsules, with real-world examples to guide your understanding. Discover systematic approaches to troubleshooting, backed by detailed case studies and practical solutions. Enhance your expertise and stay ahead in the competitive pharmaceutical landscape with our comprehensive guide to effective defect management.
