Pharmaceutical

The Pharmaceutical Sector as a market sector is never short of guidelines and it is often a difficult job for the Quality manager to interpret all of the information from the various regulatory bodies.

Guidelines from all the regulatory bodies have either been amended or are in the process of amending their positions. Recent publication of the GAMP Guide: Records and Data Integrity was published in April 2017 while the ECA is expected to release their 2^nd Data Governance and data Integrity for GMP Environments in 2017. PDA are also expected to release Data Integrity for laboratory Data in 2017.

In addition to the focus on Data integrity guidance a new USP 1058 has been released surrounding the Integrating Analytical Instrument (AIQ) Qualification and Computerised System Validation (CSV). This USP is focusing on the process around assessing an instrument from requirement, risk, specification, operation, performance up to retirement of the instrument.

Mason Technology offer the client consultation to assess their requirement in relation to the test that is required and can build a specification to fit the requirement while automating the process within the guidelines for Data integrity. The software will remove the paper trail and migrate hybrid camera based microscopes to compliant solutions for API testing, Microbiology or Cell Culture viability.

PAX-it! is a US manufactured software that is supplied into the Pharmaceutical industry with their 21 CFR Part 11 extended security module. This addresses the regulations concerning the collection and storage of electronic records and electronic signatures. Data Integrity is critical in a Pharmaceutical Quality System, with auditors enforcing compliance. Audit inspections now include observations of manual and Hybrid systems and there has been a well published increased in the number of Data Integrity citations in the Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Industries. The Auditor will check electronic records for “accessibility, durability, and accuracy” over the lifetime of the records.

PAX-it! Microscope imaging software is unique and the easiest way to keep encrypted records on all image processes.

Microscope software in the past has been left as an open platform for manipulation of data. With the introduction of Data Integrity guidelines there is now an increased awareness around the integrity of an image captured from a microscope and the results of the data analysed. The PAX-it! extended security add-on includes additional layers of protection to ensure you meet the high security standards set by the FDA.
