One of the primary considerations in the production of liquid pharmaceuticals is the implementation of quality control measures during the filling and closing process. How can pharmaceutical manufacturers best ensure the accuracy of the product they\u2019re filling and the integrity of a batch run?<\/strong> Strategies are typically identified based on the scope of the operation, batch size, and the properties of the product itself. A crucial aspect of those strategies is in-process weight checks (IPC), which utilize weigh cells to provide feedback on the dispensing accuracy of the pump. In the world of fill-finish, ensuring that this aspect of analytical technology is executed effectively and efficiently is pivotal for sustained production.<\/p>

For high-value liquid pharmaceuticals, it\u2019s common for 100 percent IPC to be run to ensure quality. \u00a0The continued rise of ATMPs spotlights the need for innovative approaches to end-to-end product stewardship. \u00a0Highly targeted, patient-centered treatments simply can\u2019t be wasted at any stage of the fill-finish process.<\/p>

AST set out to explore what the next advancement in this important process could look like. What if manufacturers could run their aseptic machine in end-of-batch mode, using every possible drop of the product with no compromise to output speed? What if operations were equipped with the capabilities to run a 100 percent IPC rate in a fraction of the time when compared to current methods? \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

In this white paper, Vice President of Technical Sales Josh Russell dives into AST\u2019s latest process advancement, Augmented IPC, <\/strong>chronicles the rise of patient-centered medicine, and examines the crucial roles that quality measures like IPC will play in the future of liquid pharmaceuticals.<\/p>
