Preparation of Mobile Phase Required for HPLC

Guideline for Preparation of Mobile Phase Required for HPLC
 Learn guidelines for preparation and validation of the mobile phase for HPLC analysis.

Mobile Phase Preparation
1. Use HPLC grade/ AR Grade / GR grade chemicals.
2. Weigh / Measure each component of the mobile phase separately.
3. Degas each solvent and buffer by sonication and then filter each component of the mobile phase separately through 0.45μ filter (Use the filterpaper as per suitability with solvent).
4. Mix the individual solvent and buffer as per the specified proportion.
5. Adjust the pH of the mobile phase wherever specified (i.e. before or after mixing of individual components) between ± 0.05 unless otherwise specified.

6. Sonicate the mobile phase for 10 minutes or more as required.
7. Ensure that mobile phase is free of particles. Do not use the mobile phase if particles are observed.
8. Enter the details of mobile phase preparation in laboratory note book.

Procedure for mobile phase validation
1. Prepare the mobile phase as per the test procedure and keep on bench top in well closed condition.
2. Evaluate system suitability parameter(s) as per the test procedure at initial, after one day and after two days.
3. The mobile phase is considered stable if all the system suitability parameter are within the specified limits.

Frequency: Mobile phase is to be prepared daily if mobile phase validation is not done. In case if sequence is required to be run in continuation for more than 24 hours & sufficient mobile phase is available in the reservoir then sequence can be allowed to run by demonstrating system suitability of analysis by injecting bracketing standard.
For stability validated mobile phase – As per frequency indicated.

Checklist for Audit in Sterile Area

Checklist for Audit in Sterile Area Checklist to verify the sterile manufacturing area before the audit. 1. Is there any SOP giving details for activity/ movement in the sterile area. 2. Verify the suitability of system for sanitization of hands. 3. Is there the SOP on entry-exit; gowning and de-gowning into the critical area available? 4. Verify the availability of following records:  Air pressure differential  Particulate monitoring  Temperature  Humidity  Microbiological monitoring by settle plate 5. Are these records available and maintained as per SOPs? 6. Check the above mentioned individual records. Are the entries within specifications mentioned in SOP/ MTPs. 7. Is the controlled copy of MTP pertaining to monitoring by settle plate available to plant person? 8. Are the location for settle plates identified and the chart/ layout available with plant? 9. Are the following areas monitored for parameters mentioned in step 4:  Air-lock to the critical ar...

MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet)

MSDS   What Is an MSDS? An MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) is a document that provides detailed information about a chemical substance, including its hazards, safe handling procedures, storage requirements, and emergency measures. Today, MSDS is more commonly called SDS (Safety Data Sheet) under the Globally Harmonized System (GHS). Why MSDS / SDS Is Important Protect workers and employees Ensure safe handling and storage of chemicals Prevent accidents and injuries Provide emergency response information Comply with workplace safety regulations.  MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet)  International safety standards.  GHS – Globally Harmonized System Full form: Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals Develop by United Nations (UN).  OSHA (USA) – Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) Factories Act & Chemical Rules (India) Factories Act, 1948 Manufacture, Storage and Import of Hazardous Chemical Rules, 1989 REACH (Europe) REACH Regula...

Aseptic Filling Process (Media Fill) Validation Protocol in Sterile Pharmaceuticals

Aseptic Filling Process (Media Fill) Validation Protocol in Sterile Pharmaceuticals Validation of sterile manufacturing process by media fill validation test as per PICS guidelines for aseptic validation or aseptic process simulation. 1.0 OBJECTIVE 1.1 To define procedures for validating and maintaining the validation of all aseptic filling processes and qualification of the quality of the product by system/facility/equipment. 2.0 SCOPE 2.1 This procedure applies to all aseptically filled sterile products intended for human use. 3.0 RESPONSIBILITY 3.1 The Validation personnel coordinate the aseptic filling validation program and write the sterile media aseptic filling processes reports. 3.2 Manufacturing personnel the sterile media aseptic filling processes and performs the sterile media fills. 3.3 QA personnel perform the sampling and assist with the IPQA monitoring required for each sterile media fill. 3.4 QC personnel to perform the testing and assist with the monitoring required fo...

Blow Fill Seal (BFS) and Form Fill Seal (FFS) Technology in Sterile Manufacturing

Blow Fill Seal (BFS) and Form Fill Seal (FFS) Technology in Sterile Manufacturing Know about sterile pharmaceutical production using Blow Fill Seal (BFS) and Form Fill Seal (FFS) technology. Both of these techniques are used to manufacture  sterile pharmaceutical products   as parenteral (LVP & SVP), infusions, ophthalmic and inhalation products. These are automated techniques to prepare sterile products. The basic concept of the  FFS   and BFS is to reduce the  contamination   by forming the container, filling and sealing in a closed sterile chamber of the machine. There is no personnel intervention to reduce the chances of the contamination during the manufacturing of sterile products. It gives more production at very low operational cost with the high assurance of  sterility . Blow fill seal technology is widely used and accepted by the various pharmaceutical regulatory authorities as US-FDA and MHRA. The system is being used for over 30 years a...
