Abstract: | The health authorities require that equipment used in the pharmaceutical industry is clean prior to use. The main raison is
to prevent any contamination of the drug products. This article demonstrates that thermogravimetry (TG) can be used for the
determination of the residual impurities during the cleaning validation of the equipment of pharmaceutical production plants.
The accuracy and the recovery rate of this method are comparable with those of the classical analysis method (determination
of the distillation residue using a rotary evaporator). The fully automation of the testing equipment even allows its utilization
around the clock by plants operators, leading to a significant reduction of the time necessary for the cleaning validation
and to an increase of the plant capacity. |
