VALIDATION Definition : Validation is the documented act of proving that any procedure, process, equipment, material, activity or system showing the correct result or not. Objective of validation : It reduces the risk of regulatory non-compliance. Reduction of time to the market for the new products. It will increase productivity in lower cost. Reduces the chances of product re- call from market. 4/25/2022 Equipment Validation Swati Swagatika (RA2122254010006) 3

Validation of Dissolution Test Apparatus To have a high degree of assurance dissolution apparatus should be consistent and accurate in its performance. Therefore validation of this equipment is required. 4/25/2022 Equipment Validation Swati Swagatika (RA2122254010006) 28
Design Qualification of Dissolution Apparatus When developing dissolution method design qualification is built into apparatus selection of process. Dosage form delivery system will determine choice of equipment. 4/25/2022 Equipment Validation Swati Swagatika (RA2122254010006) 29 Example: First choice for beaded product may be USP app 3... As it is designed to consign beads in a screened in cylinder.
Installation Qualification of Dissolution Apparatus Used to verify that instrument has assembled in the appropriate environment and its functioning according to predetermined set of limit. Example: Setting of fully automated dissolution testing apparatus requires proper plumbing hot water, source stable bench top. 4/25/2022 Equipment Validation Swati Swagatika (RA2122254010006) 30
Operational Qualification of Dissolution Apparatus During this qualification, analyst or vendor assess that equipment works as specified and generates the documented data. Example: For dissolution water bath temperature, Shaft RPM. Speed would be operational parameters. 4/25/2022 Equipment Validation Swati Swagatika (RA2122254010006) 31
Performance Qualification of Dissolution Apparatus This is conducted to ensure that the system is in normal, operating environment and performing designed set of tasks within the specification. Example: Centering , Wobble, Height of paddle or basket to shaft, speed, temperature. 4/25/2022 Equipment Validation Swati Swagatika (RA2122254010006) 32
