  • Pharmaceutical Packaging Materials Quality Control and USP
    Application Note Pharmaceutical Testing and Research Pharmaceutical Packaging Materials Quality Control and USP Chapter <661.1> Compliance Identification of packaging materials using the Agilent Cary 630 FTIR for quality control and detection of counterfeit pharmaceuticals Authors Introduction Frank Higgins The composition and quality of packaging materials can have a critical impact on Fabian Zieschang the performance, function, and production costs of pharmaceutical medications or Agilent Technologies Inc., USA drugs. Improper packaging can cause the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) in medications to degrade faster and have shorter shelf lives. Detecting problems, impurities, or incorrect polymer compositions early in the packaging process or packaging material supply can prevent the costly recall of defective end-products from the consumer. Mid-infrared FTIR spectroscopy has a long history of identifying the chemical composition of polymers, fillers, and additives used in the pharmaceutical, coatings, and chemical industries. The mid-infrared spectrum is often referred to as the chemical fingerprint of a material. This is because of the rich detail provided by the technique and its specificity in confirming a known composition. FTIR spectroscopy is a rapid and easily implemented technique that is widely used for the screening of polymers and other packaging materials. FTIR spectroscopy can be used for: – The qualification and identification of raw materials to be used for pharmaceutical packaging in accordance with regulations – Quality assurance (QA) of materials during the manufacture of packaging – The identification of suspected counterfeit pharmaceutical products by comparing the differences in the plastic packaging composition between a genuine product and a product of uncertain origin. This application note focuses on the use of the Agilent Cary The Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer meets the performance 630 FTIR spectrometer for the analysis of polymers used in specifications required by USP.

  • 15-07-2014 TS Contribution to Tobacco Control
    PUBLIC Author: Robert Taylour Agenda Item No 3(c) DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL Meeting with Cabinet Member, Health and Communities 15 July 2014 Report of the Strategic Director, Health and Communities TRADING STANDARDS CONTRIBUTION TO TOBACCO CONTROL 2013-14 1. Purpose of the report: To advise the Cabinet Member, Health and Communities of steps taken by the trading standards division to reduce smoking prevalence during the previous financial year and to seek Members’ approval for the annual programme of enforcement to prevent under-age sales of tobacco and aerosol paints. 2. Information and analysis: 2.1 As the Cabinet Member is aware, smoking is still one of the biggest contributors to preventable coronary heart disease. The trading standards division – being responsible for a range of legislation that is intended to regulate the supply of tobacco and tobacco products – makes a significant contribution to tobacco control. The attached report in Appendix 2 sets out in some detail activities undertaken during the previous financial year to support both the Council’s ambition to make Derbyshire a Safer and Healthier place and also contributes to the Department of Health’s ‘Healthy Lives, Healthy People – Tobacco Control Plan for England’. 2.2 The Tobacco Control Plan for England sets out six strands with regards to tobacco control which are internationally recognised as follows: 1. stopping the promotion of tobacco; 2. making tobacco less affordable; 3. effective regulation of tobacco products; 4. helping tobacco users to quit; 5. reducing exposure to second-hand smoke; and 6. effective communications for tobacco control. 2.3 The main areas of activity that has involved the trading standards division and which contributes to at least four of the above strands include: 1.
